Our little girl is growing fast!

Cyan is already 3 months old! I can't believe it!

Things have been going great as always. We are in the middle of a heat wave in Victoria and our little girl is not enjoying it too much. We are headed to the pool this afternoon to cool down and enjoy the water.

I thought I'd show you all how much Cyan has grown by comparing two pictures of her in her carseat... get ready... its quite the change.

Here she is at 4 days old (sorry, the picture is small):

Here she is at 3 months old:


She's almost too big for the car seat! She weighs about 14lbs now... what a difference. Needless to say, I'm building some pretty nice arm muscles!!

Enjoy everyone!

Cyan in Hawaii

Aloha!
Here are some great pics Neil took of little Cyan. We had a hawaii party for Neil's birthday and Cyan was all dressed up. We decided to do a special photo shoot a few days later because her outfit was just too cute!

Enjoy!

Busy days!

Hello everyone!

Well, we've had some busy days here lately. Summer is in full swing and we've been having so much fun with our little girl.

My friend Brigitte was visiting with her 10 month old Livia. Cyan loved having a little friend around. We did all kinds of fun stuff while they were visiting.

The funnest thing we did was bring Cyan swimming for the first time. I swam lots when I was pregnant so I figured Cyan would love the water. So, we decided to give it a try! We all went for a first dip on Sat June 30th and sure enough Cyan loved it!

I can't wait to put her in swimming lessons. Believe it or not they start at 4 months of age! So Cyan will be taking lessons starting in Sept!

Another fun thing was that Cyan celebrated her first Canada day. We spent time downtown Victoria yesterday and went to see the fireworks last night. Cyan's eyes were wide open staring at the sky. I have no idea if she could see what was going on but she sure seemed interested.
Here are a few shots of her in the pool. Don't forget to check out the video too!

Cyan's first trip!



Hi everyone!
A few weekends ago we took Cyan on her first trip! We packed up the car, took the ferry and went to visit our friends Alissa and Barry in Vancouver.
It was so great! Cyan loved the ferry ride (she loves anything that moves and noises so the ferry was a perfect environment for her). She also loved checking out Alissa and Barry's new house.


It was so much fun cause she got to meet our friends David and Cheryl and she got to hang out with uncle Sean and aunty Emma again!
Besides our big Vancouver trip things are going super well. My friend Brigitte is in town for a few weeks with her 10 month old daughter Livia. Cyan doesn't quite know whats happening... Livia loves Cyan though, I think she would eat her if she could!

As always, here are a few pics! Enjoy!
