More Updates

Well Mekhi was weighed in after 2 weeks since the last time and he is now 11pounds 13 ounzes, still 23 inches long. My little boy is getting so big!!!! Not really much news, we're still enjoying the summer getting to hang out with friends and family, but we'll sure notice when Steph, Matt, Kaden and Ireland are gone as they are often Mekhi's playmates, guess I had better make friends with kids now!Good news is, December is coming! Oh and Kellon will be flying myself and Mekhi back to Vancouver at the end of August so that we can have one last visit before the ship goes to Panama. Can't believe how many planes Mekhi will be on before he's even 1 years old! I'm putting in a few random pics of our recent days.

Family Day/Random Photos





Well this is a few pics jumbled into one posting, Amanda took some really cool pics of Mekhi while we were in Vancouver, she always gets the greatest shots.



And yesterday we had some great play time with Ireland and Kaden (oh yeah, Steph and Matt, and Grandpa and Grandma Cain were there as well, of course the kids were the stars of the show!)

Our Trip to Vancouver


We're back! And what can I say Mekhi is the most amazing little traveler there ever was. He is so content being in the sling while in the airport and travelling that way and then in the wrap when we were wandering in Vancouver. He just chilled and took in the sights. Amanda picked us up on the first day and her and Mekhi bonded and we chilled out by the pool at the hotel, Mekhi slept through most of that!


Then the day finally came, Kellon's ship came in and me and Mekhi were there to meet him as he was wheeling passengers (old ones haha) off the ship. We had a great 6 hours (yup thats all we got), walked around the ship so Kell could show off Mekhi and then went to his Cabin so they could have some one on one time and then over to the hotel for lunch and more one on one time as well. It was an amazing day, far to short and absolutely heartbreaking when it ended. But I wouldn't have traded it for the world. Everyone who saw Mekhi said "man he looks like Kellon, just lighter, sorry Meg, not like you". Good thing I have the scar to prove he's mine haha. Anyways here are a few pics of our family.

Mekhi is One Month Old!





Well he made it, one month old today! I cannot even believe that he is the same baby, I look at his newborn pics and he looks so different already! So today we went swimming with Granny, Steph, Matt, Kaden and Ireland. This is the very first time that Mekhi has been swimming and all in all he did very well. He did cry a bit but not earth shattering, he'll be a fish in no time. Then when we went to have a shower, he LOVED it, kept trying to put his head under the rush of water to lick it! Hilarious I couldn't stop laughing.
We do have a crap load of pics of Kaden and Ireland as well but I figured Steph and Matt would want to blog those before I post them all over the Internet hee hee.


Another first, I went and got my hair done today for our trip to Vancouver and left Mekhi with Auntie Steph and Granny. Thought I could handle it, however I cried when I had to leave him, cried all the way into town and called Steph at home as soon as I got to the salon. Turns out I'm a major PANSY! haha. Oh well I love my little boy, what can I do???

Whats New?

Well thought I should send some updated pictures. We've been pretty busy hanging out with friends and family. Mekhi is a very content little boy, but he sure lets me know when its bed time haha. We're leaving for Vancouver on Sunday and super pumped woo hoo! Oh yeah...Mekhi was weighed at the "mommy" gathering in town today, he is 11 pounds 1 ounze and 23 inches long, growing like a weed.






We've also got to spend a lot of time with Kaden and Ireland (oh and Steph and Matt haha) so we got some cute bonding moment shots as well more with Ireland as Kaden is less likely to stand still.

Nemo...is that you?

So I have fallen in love with my Aquarium swinging chair, it makes it possible for me to shower on a daily basis which is such an important thing haha. Mekhi has fallen in love with the orange fish, there is a blue whale on the other side but he doesn't seem to like it nearly as much, the orange fish is more his "thang".

We were also at Granny's house and tried very hard to get a pic of all the grandchildren together. Unfortunately it just didn't happen with my camera, I got 2.5 of them, I think Steph got one of all 3 in the end.

16 Days and Growing




Mekhi is growing and growing, had his first Dr. Apointment in Kenora, he now weighs 10'8" so is moving up now. He's got so many facial features now, pretty sure the first smile is on the way. He's got such a personality, happy baby, and a bit of a night man (couldn't take after his mother could he haha). Everything is going well in Kenora and Mekhi is loving hanging with his cousins, he got to watch them swim today, and in 3 weeks when I can get in the water Mekhi will be definately in that water with them.
We just booked our ticket to fly to Vancouver on the 20th, finally Kellon and Mekhi will get to meet, i'm so excited!
