Hi.  Here's a few photos of little Charlie.  It was a whirlwind birth with Debby's first contraction at 4am and him being born at 6:54 am after only 11 minutes of pushing.  Luckily we left for the hospital when we did as we were only there about 3/4 an hour before he was born.

He's healthy, alert and feeding well and weighed in at a hefty 9lbs.2oz.  I think Isabel is wondering what's going on but she's going to be a great big sister.

I took the kids to Bronte Provincial Park yesterday, which is about 10 minutes from our house. We swam all afternoon then had a bbq. The kids loved it. We'll definitely go back.

Isn't it amazing what the human body can do? Hang in there Debby, looks like you're ready to go! Looks like a boy to me.....

Well this is probably our last post before the new baby arrives.  We took Isabel to the lake and it was too cold so we set up a little pool on the deck.  She could spend 5 hours in that thing...

Here's some photos of Isabel hugging and kissing her new brother/sister and not a great shot of Debby but you can see that that's quite a belly.  That was a few days ago.. less than two weeks to go but we're thinking this one is going to come a little sooner.  Debby thinks the baby has dropped down a bit so it won't be long now.

Hopefully Mum makes it here in time.....
