So my niece, Erica’s 1st cousin arrived on Mother’s day!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Going to visit Elaine and Gord in the birthing suite brought back a lot of memories, and a reminder of how difficult, yet rewarding\u00a0it is to bring a baby into this world.\u00a0 It also reminded us of the first few days and\u00a0weeks… those were certainly some challenging days, hard to imagine that anyone can survive them… but everyone gets through it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also reminded us\u00a0that as\u00a0new parents there are a couple of requests- keep the hospital visits very short, and\u00a0for the first few\u00a0weeks\/month at home,\u00a0call before you visit, keep the visits short, and\u00a0bring a home\u00a0cooked meal \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

So who does Lauren look like?\u00a0 Hard to\u00a0tell at this stage, but Gord says\u00a0she’s more like Ernie than Bert.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude10\u00a0 Anyways, congratulations!\u00a0\u00a0It was a tough delivery, but everyone is healthy and safe!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Lauren<\/a><\/p>\n

Erica is 9 months tomorrow, and is about 18lbs, 5oz.\u00a0 That’s triple her birth weight.\u00a0 We have one more swim lesson to go.\u00a0 Last lesson, we dunked her head under about 10 times, and each time she closed her eyes and mouth. Good girl!\u00a0 However she still stuck her tongue out to taste the pool water.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

We’re thinking of signing up for another set of lessons, not that we’ll learn anything new as it’s fairly repetitious, but because it’s nice to get out on a Saturday AM, and she really likes to kick and swim.\u00a0 The side effect is when we give her a bath- we really get a splashfest!<\/p>\n
