Photos...
I am planning on getting pictures of Graeme and Monica on here, but, for some reason, my upload program is not cooperating. I'll work on it, as I find the time.

Graeme Luke is here!
Ok...so first I'll apologize to anyone who still check this blog. It's been a long time since I updated with anything worthwhile, but here I am.
I've recently been introduced to Facebook.com, so I seem to do most of my posting of anything new and exciting on there. However, not everyone is a member, so for those of you who aren't...here is an update!
Graeme Luke was born on Thursday, June 14th at 8:45am, via a scheduled c-section. He weighed 3.04kg...which I believe was 6lbs 11oz. Everything went without a hitch...other than the doctor being half an hour late because one of her children lost their shoe. I vomited throughout the whole surgery...apparently morphine does not agree with me...which slowed the process a little bit, but once the meds wore off, I was fine (an hour later!!). Most importantly, Graeme was healthy and did not need to stay in NICU like big sister Monica did.
Since then, Graeme has been a good baby. Content for the most part and happy. He loves his swing...Monica hated it...and he naps well throughout the day. He still wakes for feedings during the night, but he is going 5 hours between feeds now (usually) which I consider a good thing. Hopefully, in the weeks to come he will stretch that even more, but I'm happy with getting 5 hours of sleep at a time.
Well, I'm not going to make any promises for frequent updates. I just don't have the time. We are moving into our new home in the Cathedral area on September 1st and I will begin providing home childcare, again, on the 10th. I'm not sure if I'm ready for it, but I'll find a routine that works...eventually!
We hope everyone has been enjoying their summer and you should all join Facebook. It's a great way to find and stay in touch with friends and/or family that you otherwise would not. It's amazing who you can find!
That is all!
