Letter to Tracy

It has been so long, or so it seems...and in the very same second it seems like just yesterday. You have missed so
much. It still seems hard to believe that you are really gone.
I remember growing up thinking you were the coolest (I guess that's a pretty common little-sister thing) I wanted to go where ever you went, and do whatever you were doing...I really drove you nuts. It wasn't until Brett came along, and mom made me walk him to school that I truly understood how lame it was that mom made you do the same thing for me....
Remember the time that we took crazy carpets down the gully in the middle of winter, when it was totally covered in ice? Wow, I thought you were brave....Looking back, maybe a bit crazy. I guess when you're kids you think you're invinsile. I wish we were...
Anyhow, I just really wanted you to know that I think about you all the time...Even though I might not say so...
I love you Tracy.

Paranoid Mom??

Last night was a bit of a scare. Chase has had a bit of a cold...(Although when it first started, I thought it might be allergies to Doug...my parent's cat.) But last night, I had been out for a little bit, and when I came home I headed to bed. Just as I was on my way to dream land...I heard choking coming from Chase's room...I flew out of bed, and in there as fast as I could move...Then Chase started to cry, and he sounded awful. He had a really hoarse congested sound coming from his chest, and I knew I wasn't going to sleep unless I got him checked out. So, off we go to the hospital...@ 12:00am.
Keep in mind that Ian is in a cast, and was fully asleep...Ahhh! So I phoned Sadie & Allana's house (as that is where I was just over an hour ago) And...Sadie, Allana, & Amy all come with me up to the hospital as I was a bit of a basket-case...
To make a long story short, Chase is ok. There is no fluid in his lungs. But the doctor (Dr. Milde, a very nice man) Said to keep an eye on him because it is so easy for these little ones to get pneumonia. So Chase is "sniffly" but doing good! Breaks your heart when the little guy gets sick, and can't even tell you where it hurts. ~Coral

Oh what a day...

It's finally here. Today is the day Shane starts his journey home...It's been so long since we have all seen you...We miss you tons!! Take care....Can't wait to see you...

~Coral, Ian, Chase, & Kita

P.S. I know this picture was taken way back in January, but it's still the most recent one I have.

Some recent pictures...

Cheering on the Canucks!!Nalgene Commercial?

Ian's ankle on day 3...

Still waiting for the swelling to go down. Ian is getting a permanent cast tomorrow (Monday) As you can see it looks as though Ian has quite the club foot! In the picture that shows his toes, half of his baby toe is covered by the temp cast...making it look totally creepy...lol.

Chase's first word...

Lately (with Ian being home) Ian has been teaching Chase to say "Mama." And of course Chase trys so hard repeat...He has been doing really good too! This morning I go in to get him after a nice long sleep, and he starts saying "Mama mama mama!" SOOOO cute. I am sure he probably doesn't really get that I am "mama" but it still is really cool that he is saying it!! Right now Ian is sitting with him, working on "Dada." This whole "parent thing"....it's pretty cool!

So what do you think Ian will be doing for the next 8 weeks?

So...I got a phone call from Ian today. He called me from the

hospital to let me know he had fallen off a ladder at work.

How big was this ladder you ask...oh, it was 20 feet high! Ian is lucky that all he broke was his ankle...Although he'll now be in a cast for 6-8 weeks! He'll get a real cast when the swelling goes down.

Congratulations to the both of you on the birth of your new baby boy! After a pretty frightening last month or so, Maria gave birth to a healthy baby boy. He came 6 weeks early and weighed in at 6lbs, 8oz! He was born April 20th, 2007 @ 6:12am.

Can't wait to meet him, and post some pictures!
