From the TV Room floor to Stanley Park Beach, all in a days work

Week 7 was sure a fun one, as she played alot and we took advantage of it and went out for a night on the town. Friday night we went to Granville Island for a wonderful boat ride from the downtown core to Granville island (they are just little water taxi's, but enjoyable none the less) where we went for a very special dinner. At dinner we took advantage of a three hour window that Renee gave us between feedings and just chilled at the dinner table talking about my work, friends, family and parenting strategies. The following morning we took to the road and went for a three hour walk along the beach of Stanley Park and then capped it off with another little trip across the water to Granville Island for a wonderful Chicken Taco Salad from the farmers market that is there.

Nick, April, and Abby - the pics we have from the bbq will be on the week 8 installment of the blog ;)






Random lol









My own version of a farmers tan





Proud papas: Intro's Nick is holding Renee and I am holding 10 month old Abby. Heather, can you believe that our little girls are going to be this big in under 9 months, shocking.

Don't start expecting updates each week, this was just a special week for our family so we wanted to share the pics sooner than later.
Some breaking news on the Renee front for the last two nights and today: She is now at 7:45 to 8 hours with her night sleeps; She had a doosy of a explosion that had some serious velocity to it; and today she rolled over for the third time and we got some real good pics of the process that she goes through in order to turn her self round.
Talk to you all soon, and please don't be shy, we love hearing from those reading the blog just because I then feel like it is worth doing!!!!
Love Renee, Stephanie, and Ron

Hi U 3,
She's a dead ringer for Steph, although I am seeing a bit of Ronsy in her in these latest pics. All I can say is what a gorgeous baby Renee is. Ron, you seem to have taken to you fatherhood role like a duck to water and STEPH, you look like a million bucks. I want to give the three of you huge hugs...
Love always,
Ingrid XXX XXX XXX

She is looking much more like Smack in these pics - i can't believe how big she's gotten and already she's trying to hold her head up on her own??? That's insane!

Well, we all knew that this union would produce an athlete for sure - and i think we're stating to see the beginnings right here.

She is just so beautiful and i've been showing her pics to EVERYONE - the general consensus is a lot of "ooohhhhh" and "oh my God she's adorable!".

I can't wait to see you guys and to meet your little sweetheart - p.s., i'm hoping the pony makes it there before i do. 2 weeks to go!!!!

love to all 3 of you!

as a side note - i've been talking to some of my friends who have young children, and they're all amazed at how quickly Renee is progressing. Mainly though, they're entirely jealous that you're whiz kid is sleeping through the night so well!!

Anyway, as i said, i expected nothing less than perfection with Renee's bloodlines!

Smack - let me know if you want me to bring out any of the "fun" wheat-free, gluten-free foods.
