Fairy Garden

The weather has been so nice and Amalia is loving our walks.
The neighbours love our walks too because she runs around waving at everyone she sees and every car that goes by.
She likes going to other peoples garden as well, but who wouldn't like a fairy in their garden?
Definitely not me!
This is also the first time I got her to keep her shoes on, yay!
It's definitely time to start wearing shoes more often. 
Also, this may be tmi, but speaking of firsts, she went poopie in the potty!
I have gotter her to pee pee several times but today this was a first.  
I am excited because it is so much easier to flush than to clean up a diaper.

She is growing so big and this warm weather is so familiar to her.
I think it was tough for her to be inside most of this time not we get to go out everyday and she gets to do what she is more familiar with.

John and the boys have been enjoying the weather as well, they spend a lot of time outside playing ball.

Nothing like perfect weather!  Dubai is almost 100 degrees already! 
Looks like it was great timing! We missed most of winter here and will miss 120 degree summer there!

I am posting the head back pic for her Daddy, he is obsessed with her curly hair!

Star Wars Birthday Party

It's that time of year for the boys double birthday party!! Since I... I mean they are so into star wars that was the obvious choice of a party theme. It was so cute at the end of the party after the boys opened all their gifts and John says, "Well, what did Mummy and I get you?"  They both shrugged.  I said, "We got you this beautiful party, and that is your gift." They both hugged us and said thank you without even complaining that we didn't buy them anything, such gracious boys! Then John brought out their bikes and they went crazy!! It was the cutest thing. Happy Birthday to our wonderful boys, Happy 7th and 9th Birthday Ethan and Kaiden!

And the Fun Begins

On Sunday, March 11th, we welcomed our newest family member.  Amalia Rachael Emily Benham. It all began Saturday morning.  I had signs of labor but we had the Pinewood Derby so I hoped she would wait.  And of course, she did. Contractions started coming in very slowly and Mummy and Binx came over.  We hung out, and hung out, and hung out and the contractions weren't getting stronger but slowly moving closer together.  We all finally took naps then we started hanging out again.  Finally at 12am we decided to go to the hospital. 3 cm dilated and I was admitted. Kindle, my bff of course came to the hospital as well.  All our biggest supporters were there. Waiting for Baby  Getting some well needed rest. Last moments before birth  My contractions never got  intense before the epidural kicked in, thank goodness.  Somehow my left side didn't kick in so I could feel it all on that side, but because I have back labor and I co...

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical.
