Baby David Bertels arrived today, Friday, October 28th at 1:35 p.m. He was due November 9th, and showed up a wee bit early!! David was born at home, weighs 7lbs 10 oz and is doing wonderful with his family now :-) Big brother Peter is not sure what to think, but has given him a hug and a kiss. More updates to follow later!
As promised, here is Peter's nearly finished bedroom. He has slept in his big-boy bed for two nights now, although it hasn't gone as smoothly as we'd hoped . . . we do have a large rail that keeps him safe so he doesn't fall out, but our little monkey easily climbs in and out of his new freedom-inducing bed. The last part to the room will be a nice cosy rug for the floor . . . we're looking for a nice simple colour since the walls and bedding are so bold. We're also looking for a cool light fixture in the shape of a ship's wheel or something, and maybe an old lobster trap to stick full of toys - please e-mail us if you have any leads or suggestions :-)
Peter helped us do some paper shredding this weekend . . . and had quite a good time in the process!!
Hmmmmm . . . yes, those pyjamas are a "little" too big!!
Wait a minute, is there something wrong with this picture??? What is daddy doing in my crib??
Looking a little too comfortable in here, Paul!
Pete is a little "stunned" for a while, even after daddy leaves his crib . . .
