just for Tara...haha



So this update is for Tara. The last one wasn't good enough...haha.


Well, John and I are currently living with my parents. We are trying to pay off some debts and save up some money. My sister Sarah, and her husband are currently pregnant aswell. Sarah is due on October 10th. Her husband, Clayton, is living here with us right now too, while Sarah finishes up working in Wasaga Beach before her maternity leave. It's a pretty full house right now because Matt is home for the summer aswell.


I go back to work in 6 weeks. I'm still working at Walmart for the time being, but I am thinking about starting a daycare in the spring so I can be home with Cameron.



This is the little man a couple days ago. He's going to be a little charmer I'm sure. I'll post again soon. I really will try harder this time!!

my apologies.

Poor Tara has been hounding me for an update, and I've just been slacking. I'll admit it. So here it goes.
This is a picture of my belly when I was 36 weeks pregnant. So I still had four weeks to go and I was MASSIVE! I was definately ready for the baby to come out...haha.
I was induced on January 25th, because he just wasn't coming on his own. I had to be induced twice. He was a stubborn baby. Labour kicked in around midnight. I went back to the hospital at 3am, and was monitored for a few hours. At 11:30am on the 26th, they broke my water, and from here the real pain began...haha. I had morphine and Gravol to help. When they broke my water, I was 4-5 centimetres dialated. Not too shabby. But when they came back to check me at 4:30, I was still only 5 centimetres, and the doctor couldn't even feel the baby's head. So he decided it was in the best interest of myself, and the baby if they did a c-section. So I was wheeled down to the OR, and the baby was born at 5:02pm. He weighed 8 pounds and 3 ounces and was 52 centimetres long. His name is Cameron Gregory Burns. This picture is the first picture taken of him.

Cameron is six and a half months old now. It goes by so fast. He weighs 19 pounds. He can sit up, and roll over and talks all the time. He is so happy. He is growing up way to fast for my liking though.
I go back to work in six weeks. The thought of leaving him every day just kills me but I know i have to do it. But spending this time at home with him has been the best time of my life, and I can't wait to do it all over again! (in a year or two...haha)
Thats my quick update for now. I'll try to be more diligent with my updates!
