Merry Christmas Everyone!

Moving more and more

Well just a quick video to show everyone my little man and his new skills. Everyday he gets better, cannot believe that soon he'll actually be crawling!!!! Look out world hee hee.

6 Months!

Well Mekhi is now 6 months old and there is no holding him back, he wants to move so badly. As you can see by the video, that is how he's getting around right now. Which makes is pretty hard because our furniture has sharp corners, gonna have to pad that, and the floor is tile, yeah he'll learn after the first few bumps i'm sure haha. Can't tell you as yet weight or height but sometime in the next few weeks we are going to take Mekhi in for a general check up with a family doctor here, just to introduce them really and find out how he's growing. He is becoming such a character, when walking in town in the stroller he won't smile at anyone, but if I pick him up, well then he'll smile at everyone, so brave from his Mum's arms haha. He loves the papaya tree's leaves, would watch them all day, and the white butterflies that flutter outside our door are his friends. Anyways thats an update on Mekhi, his exzema is clearing up, and his chest cold is slowly going away as well. Thanks to a nurse friend on one of the Princess Ships yesterday, we went for a visit and she checked him out just to make sure the cold was ok, and yup, just normal cold.

We're Connected!

Well not too bad at all, two weeks in Grenada and we have a fully furnished apartment, house phone, cable, internet, and I have a local cell phone as well. Goodness we sure have been busy!

Lets see, our flights to Grenada went really well, Mekhi slept the entire way from Winnipeg to Minneapolis, then we played in the airport and he slept for about half the flight from Minneapolis to Miami. Once we arrived in Miami we had to re-check in with American Airlines (luckily didn’t have to collect luggage though) and get to the gate. Once there it was about time to board, we got on, all looked well until we got an announcement saying there was something wrong with the plane and we all had to get off, I had just gotten Mekhi to sleep  So had to wake him up, get all our stuff again, and go back to the terminal, tried to go and get something to drink then an announcement was made for all Grenada passengers to return to the gate, so we went back, only to be told “wait” cause there is now a medical emergency onboard and we all have to stay put, well Mekhi is now feeling a bit fussy, we sat down and played, calling Kellon to advise him of our delays. Anyways finally we got on, took off, Mekhi slept from take off until landing (thank you!) and we finally got to Grenada by 12:30am, out of the airport by 1:30am.

Anyways, since arrival poor Mekhi developped a heat rash all over his body, runny nose and eyes when outside which we thought were allergies, but then lead to a cold which he now has and a cough that makes him have a hard time breathing. So its been a little bit rough getting him accustom to Grenada. But together me and Kellon are trying to make everything as easy as possible for him.

So the pictures are of our two weeks here, I don’t think they need much explanation.

Above is the first ripe papaya off our papaya tree

Arrived Safely

This is Megan's mum, Susan.

Megan and Mekhi arrived safely in Grenada at 1:30 a.m. (Grenada time). There were many delays on the trip but Mekhi travelled wonderfully. Megan is tired but both she and Kellon are happy.

I'm sure she'll blog as soon as she can.
