Canada one day, Utah the next. Some might be confused what we are doing, or where we are living. We're confused some of the time too, so that's ok! Sawyer and I are back in Cedar until the baby comes (turns out it's better for us to have the baby in the states since I'm not a Canadian citizen or resident). George still works up in BC and will be commuting down to see us when he can. We've had him here for ten days and are loving every second of it! He's also worked a ton of overtime so he can come down for good starting the second week in March so he'll be here for the delivery. Also Canada has some pretty amazing paternity leave, so he'll get to stay here after the baby comes for at least a couple months, maybe more. That's about as far out in the future that we have planned. Anyway, that's another BIG reason I hope this next month FLIES by...I can't wait to be together full time as a family, and have this new babe in my arms.
Out for a stroll in the chariot. We were able to afford this awesome stroller (triples as a bike trailer and ski trailer) because George's work offers a health and wellness bonus where you HAVE to spend money on things that promote health. Awesome! Sawyer is sitting in it like a king, but there should be room for little brother once he arrives.

Sawyer has been looking so grown up to me lately. It might be his haircut, I'm not sure. Last night he spent his first night in a big boy bed (twin mattress on the floor). It went pretty well. He slipped off the mattress once, but after some rearranging things went smoothly. At his normal wake up time he just stayed in bed and sang and talked to himself until I went and got him. Nap time might be a different story though. It seems a little early to transition to a big boy bed for him, but he's learned to climb out of his crib. Luckily I was there to catch him before he fell on his head. Anyway, we figure it's good timing to do it now before his little brother makes his debut and changes his world.

So exciting, he will be here before tlyou know it! So glad papa gets to come and stay for awhile, good luck hang in there!:)
Wow I'm seriously becoming a Canadian. What awesome benefits! I want to talk to you about the chariot! I'm sorry you guys are a split family lately. Someday you'll all be together. It seems like it's always been like this for you and George. It will all be worth it in the end. Love you!
That stroller is awesome! We also moved our kids to twin beds at 15 months...totally not as big of a deal as people made it out to be. Congrats, Sawyer...what a big boy! And I'm really hoping you, George, Sawyer and baby can all be together for good!!!
