Autumn Fun

-
Here are more pictures of what has been happening in our life since I last blogged. Aunt Cathy came to visit and we were very excited to see her!! She spent one evening with us and we had a great time eating a good meal, playing outside on the trampoline, and going for a walk to get a coffee and some ice cream, we really miss her and Jackson is anxiously awaiting the day he can go on an airplane to see Aunt Cathy :)

I went to the spa last week for an appointment that lasted 2 3/4 hours - it was FANTASTIC - I think I should go every month - it was a well deserved break. LOVED IT !

We spent one weekend at our friends Jonathan and Karen's cottage and that was GREAT, it was sooo peaceful and relaxing to be in the outdoors in the beautiful autumn weather! The kids had fun exploring and going for walks outdoors and we had a great time watching movies and eating delicious food.

I also took care of my niece and nephew for one week while my sister was at a conference in Reno, so it was John and Nola + 5 ... we had a great time and it was a busy household but we had tons of fun, it was a bit quieter when they left and I was sad to see them go.

We are getting ready for Thanksgiving and then Halloween, Jackson gets sooo excited for Halloween, I can't wait for you all to see their Halloween costumes. Until then enjoy the pics and I will blog again soon.



Check out my digger sweater :) I love it - Mom thinks I'm so handsome !!!



Here are pics from Hudson and Oliver's room. I painted the letters and I think they look very nice on the wall.



Oliver's wall :)



My 3 musketeer's - they just love all hanging out together.



Here is Aunt Cathy with Jackson and Hudson, all 3 are suppose to be focused on reading the story but they all seem distracted.



Aunt Cathy and Hudson!!!! What great smiles.



Jackson, my niece Lauren, and my nephew Riker - they all look a bit worn out, they always woke up EARLY and played hard, then crashed in the afternoon.



Here we are at the cottage Hudson, Oliver, Jessie, Jackson, and Josiah - all great buds and Jessie will be well looked after with all these boys :)





John and Jackson enjoying the scenery.





Jackson loves fall just as much as I do, the colours and leaves were BEAUTIFUL!!!





More autumn fun!





Hudson and Oliver also enjoying the outdoors, I just love their hats I bought!!





I like this pic, Jackson is just too cute in this picture and Hudson and Oliver were happy to be out of their stroller :)




Oliver and Dad !




Hudson - he ate a handful of leaves after this picture, he wasn't too enthused by their taste.





Oliver just being his curious self.





Me and my boys :)





Another pic of our family!!!





Jackson in a wagon full of leaves.




They didn't stay in there for long.





Just enjoying a beautiful fall day!!




Me and my boys!! Queen of the house!!!

I love the last picture :D How do you remember to get family pics in with all the busyness? We took some on the weekend, and none turned out good enough for a Christmas card, so we'll have to try again...

Hi All, Hope Everyone is keeping well and that life is treating everyone good. Once again its been awhile since we have written a little story. I cannot believe how fast time is going and that soon March will be over, its crazy to me. Life in the Bowering household is very good. Work is going well for John and myself. Jackson is doing GREAT. He still isn't walking but I am convinced he totally knows how to do it independently but I think he thinks..(man life is great, my mommy and daddy carry me around everywhere) He walks along the walls and furniture and climbs up and down the stairs but soon he will walking independently. Jackson is quite the talker he says ALOT of words, and they are very clear, his favourite words are bubble, cookies, mommy, dad, apple, ball, bull, puppy... that's just a few he can say more. he is also signing quite a bit. He knows more and eat, those are his favourites but he likes finished and milk as well. I'm very proud of my little boy. You may t...

Summer Holidays

Wow I can't believe how much fun I had this summer. I did lots of things, I am all tuckered out from the fun. I have been growing very fast, I'm already 9 months old. I love ice cream, chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, and mom even gave me a taste of her french fries, but shhhhhh don't tell dad. Have fun reading about our summer, hope you like the pictures. I LOVE the water and swimming and taking baths are so much fun. Well it has been awhile since John and I have done anything with this blog. We have had a busy summer so now that we are actually home, we can try to make more regular updates! Our summer was mostly spent relaxing at the cottage at Lake of the Woods. We had a fantastic time. Jackson absolutely loves the water. He did lots of swimming, went for a canoe ride, tried to help with fishing, and took walks in the sand. Almost every weekend was spent at the cottage, which was great because we have been so blessed with such great weather. We also took a trip ou...

The Twins

I've had a two hour nap since Saturday morning so I'm going to try keep this brief and too the point. On Saturday night Nola's contractions came out of nowhere. They started at about 9:20pm and by 10:30 they were 10 min apart. By the time we got to the hospital a little after 11pm they were 5 min apart. After checking her out, they rushed us in to the O.R. as if the twins were going to explode out of Nola at any second. All the doctors, nurses, anesthesiologists etc were ready and waiting.... and waiting... and waiting... After 5 hours of the twins just about being born the doctor decided that things had stalled and announced that we would be having a c-section. They kicked me out of the room, put Nola under and about 1o minutes later at about 4:05 am on January 13, Hudson John Bowering arrived in this world at 6 pounds, 13 ounces. And it was only 60 seconds after that that Oliver Finn Bowering made his entrance at 6 pounds 3 ounces (both were 21 inches long). I go...
