3 and 1 month

Well we have reached some milestones in the Matthews' household! Tressa is 3 today and Isla just hit 1 month! Where does the time go? We had a big family party and it was crazy and fun! 

Isla is a good baby, sleeping most of the day and up every 2 hours at night. Hopefully that streches into 3 or 4 soon!

Tressa's beautiful cake was made by Amanda's Creative Cakes. Check out amandascreativecakes.blogspot.com

Isla's Arrival

Here she is, she took a long time to decide to come into this world but she made it!

Isla Sherritt Matthews was born on February 27th at 12:21am. She was 8lbs 12 oz. Now you know why I was so huge and uncomfortable.

So far she sleeps all day and is up all night but we are working on changing that.   

Big sister Tressa loves her and wants to know where she is at all times. She is adjusting to her new role as big sister from The One and Only.

We are overjoyed to welcome Isla into our lives and

hope to share with you, our friends and family, pictures of her as she grows.

My two girls!

The Canada U.S. game was stressful for even the littlest fans.

Sleeping Beauty!

Merry Christmas

I know that I said I would start this up again when baby #2 arrives, or as my friend likes to say our future child but we had such a great
 Chirstmas with our current child that I wanted to post some pictures. 

Have a wonderful New Year!!

  

We're baaack!!

With baby number 2 just 2 short months away (we hope!!) the blog is back. Since I don't use facebook, I will try to keep this website updated with pics of our growing family.
See you in a couple months!

I'm 2!!

Here are some pictures from Tressa's 2nd birthday. We had a real tea party and it was a lot of fun. She is growing up so quickly! Hope you enjoy these shots!

I'm Growing Up!

Here are some more pictures of our sweet girl. She is growing up so fast! She loves colouring, playing with her dolls and getting into my purse. She is a real little girl! Her favorite thing to do is to play outside. Manitoba weather will not deter her. On the day the rain turned to snow, she was out on the driveway pushing her stroller up and down the driveway!







Remember the beautiful weather?

I love Trick or Treating!

I wonder where she gets her love of shoes and lipstick from?

Someone loves her new winter boots!

Go Obama!

Where has the time gone?

I have no excuse other than laziness, and computer problems for the lack of postings. But that also means we had a busy and exciting summer! We were outside all the time even though we did not have a typically beautiful Manitoba summer. July was filled with bike rides, trips to the park and the zoo, a weekend in Gimli, shopping and visits with friends. August was action packed! We had a Sherritt family gathering at Delta Beach and a relaxing vacation with our long, lost friends from Hong Kong in Whistler.

Sadly I am back at work and missing my time with Tressa, who is so happy to see her friends at daycare that I am lucky to get a wave as I drop her off!


Fun in Whistler
