Just before Harrison was born, we went out with some friends, the Morrisons, and took our kids to Discovery Zone in Vancouver. At the time our families had five kids between them - now we have eleven. We took that "multiply and replenish the earth" thing seriously.
And what better way to celebrate being nine months pregnant... than by crawling into the ball bin and letting your friends cover you up till only your belly shows? Going...
Going... (that's Dave Morrison on the right)
Gone! Love that plaid belly!
Now for some bath time. It's weird to think that there was ever a time when I only had two kids, but here they are... Brennan was six and Bella had just had her third birthday...
STRONG MAN
What mean parents, making the poor kid freeze while we take her picture.
Looks like we're all happy again. This was our last night of "the four of us" with a few family members thrown in... yes, the plaid couch and loveseat set are Mom's old set. It went GREAT with the Pepto-pink carpet in that house. :)
Couch antics
If only we could all look like Angelina Jolie while we're pregnant. I was not blessed with that gift. But Harrison got the gift of a cute new blanket that Neenaw made for him (on the right).
No one can resist that Solitaire game.
Ernie: "When's this kid supposed to show up?"
Melanie: "I know. C-section births are so boring."
Good night, Bella girl!
Neenaw's favorite thing, doing the dishes. :)
