Our Little Simon

At 6:07 in the morning on July 15th, Bruce and I finally got to meet our new baby boy.  Simon Everton Chenuz is as perfect as a baby can be and we are in love.  I was so grateful that my Mom was able to be here and to spend some time with us and to help me while I recovered.  She is truly the most selfless person I know and I don't know what I would have done without her here.  So far Simon is staying strong and healthy and looking more like his brother all the time.  Eli has been very good with him so far considering the huge adjustment he's having to go through.  Tomorrow we are off to Haley's wedding and I am so excited to see everyone and to show off my sons (seems to odd to say sons instead of son).  Anyway most of my family will most likely want to see pictures so here are some of my favourites.

I love how excited Eli looks

 Eli insists on having his picture taken every time I take a picture of Simon and here a couple of the goofy ones.

The Waiting Game

So there are only a few days left until my due date and so far little Simon is being stubborn and refusing to meet us. My Mom came into town today and I am so glad that she is here! I'm hoping that her presence will bring us a little good luck and this weekend will be the one. She also made me realize how long it has been since I have done any blog posts.  I don't think that there is any way that I will be able to catch up on all the things that have been going on here but I thought I would quickly post a couple of pictures to show how the baby belly has been growing.  I will have to do a big update on some very excited things later... one of them being that Bruce now owns and operates a Marble Slab Creamery! Time to plump up even more!

 Keep your fingers crossed that Simon arrives while my Mom is here!
