Paige Sophia Vivier

Paige was born May 19 at 2:25am. She was 8lbs 4 oz and 21.5 inches long. She is a healthy, happy little girl. She has dark blue eyes and dark brown hair. We are so lucky to welcome her to our family


Happy Family. This is right after she was born. It was a pretty good labour - as good as it can be I guess :)







Elyse came to visit in the hospital. She loves Paige and being a big sister. We are all adjusting to our new roles.

So far Paige is a really good little baby. She is really mellow and sleeps lots during the day - around Midnight is her party time so we are all a bit sleep deprived but I guess that goes with the territory. I'll try to keep the posted updated as they change so much from day to day.

2 Year Photos

We went to have Elyse's pictures done for her second birthday. I am pleased at how they turned out. She was so co-operative I couldn't believe it. I had to wake her up and she protested pretty much the whole way there but then was such a good sport.
















This is a picture quite similar to one that I had done around my second birthday. We thought it would be neat to have one for Elyse too. She has WAY more hair than I ever did at her age.















I hadn't really planned on being in the pictures but the photographer told her to listen for the baby in Mommy's tummy and I just loved the look on her face!































I love how innocent she looks in this picture. She is our little angel.

9 More Days - but who's counting :)

Elyse and I getting ready. I am counting down the days until the new little one but nothing yet. I am feeling pretty good just tired and big!

New to this Blog thing :)

Well, I decided to just do it. I figured this would be a good way to keep in touch with everyone in the hectic time to come. Bare with me as I try to figure it out but for now I have posted some recent pictures of what's been going on in our lives. Chris has given his notice and we will have our Stainless Steel business up and running May 1. I am due May 14, so we are in for a crazy month but things have been going really well for us. Everyone keep in touch and I will try to keep on top of this blog thing :)

Moving to a big bed

We moved Elyse to a "big girl" bed on her birthday, we told her it was part of turning 2. She seems to like it - so far so good. The first night she called us in the morning to get her but she has now figured out she can get out but she comes running right to our room and knocks. Let's hope that it last - we haven't had any problems yet - no sleepless nights! YEA!! This picture shows her usual pose - sucking her thumb and playing with her hair.

Elyse's 2cnd Birthday

Elyse's birthday was on Saturday. We just had a little party for her that she had been looking forward to all week. She loved the cake and having everyone over - she loves to show off her toys and her new playroom.
