Fly Me To The Moon

It was the perfect day to take the grandkids out to the Orono Fair.

First Day of School 2011

Yup, its the first day of school and I am sure glad that it is not me going ... LOL. Quin and Aiden today and Lexy will go with Aiden on the other days as both Quin starts SK and Lexy will be going to JK. Aiden is starting grade 3 ina 3/4 class.

Hello Kitty Cake

One of the promises we made to Lexy was a "Hello Kity" cake from her Nana. With all the distraction of her little sister Lilly's arrival, we could not have her cake until today. A few friends dropped by to help her blow out the candle. Click here to see the cake.

Princess Swing

Today Frank and Tracy went out to get a baby monitor and a swing for Lilly. The technology sure has improved since Aiden was born. Here we have the "Princess Swing" with a 110 volt plug for the mechanical mechanism up top. It plays quite a variety of songs, swings the seat, rotates the mobile around and up and down, and at night projects stars on to the baby. The baby monitor has the sensors for her breathing rate, and a camera with infra red night time illumination. There is a 10 inch monitor that sits on a stand downstairs so you can see the baby at all times on the monitor even though the baby is on the floor above. There is also a mobile monitor that you carry on your belt to a range of 350 feet and it has alarms plus a small video monitor so you can see the baby even if you are out of the house. The technology is amazing!

Old Lady's Hands

At first examination these would appear to be the hands of an elderly lady. They are actually the wrinkled hands of Lilly, just a day old. Yes, Lillian came home from the hospital today and was greeted by her family. Quinten is a bit reluctant to hold her still, but Lexy can't get enough of holding her baby sister. I have included pictures from my good cameras in today's link - many of the photos were taken right in the delivery room. Click here to see the latest pictures of Lilly.

Lilly Arrived

At about 5:10 this morning she arrived at the Oshawa hospital. Mother and child
are doing well. 7 lb 15 oz

Famous Jersey

The jersey is in theToronto colour but Aiden had  to add his name and number himself. So you saw it here first.
