Eight Months Old and Moving to Canada!

Yep we're moving to Vancouver BC, well, technically our address is Burnaby BC but it's just on the outskirts of Vancouver. We just gave the deposit for the rental this week and our stuff will be picked up by the movers on Monday! We've been living out of a hotel room, eating out a lot and ready to live "normally". On the flip side though we've met the parish priest at the church that is walking distance from our new home and have started to get to know the daily mass goers. 

We are very blessed for all the safe travels we've had this past month and that everything is going so smoothly. Also for all the very nice and welcoming people in Canada...I mean it, everyone is just SO nice! 

Ok now for what you're really looking for: Malachi's monthly pics.

This explains our mood in the hotel today...no I did NOT stage this, I sat him upright on the bed, he did the rest.

 

View from our hotel window...there are quite a few skyscrapers.

He's starting to pull himself up.

I bet you only thought he knew how to smile right?

Grumpy face doesn't usually last too long.

And for those who aren't on facebook and missed the moving announcement pic:

Weekend Fun

We tried staying cool since the temps were in the 90's! We went to Oneonta Gorge and saw Multnomah Falls...my first time ever. 

Also it was a sad day today, we can't take Black Beauty with us (seeing as it doesn't even run) so Andrew got a rid of it. Only a few people will appreciate seeing it one last time =)

Happy Father's Day Andrew! (Belated)

I came downstairs to find these two hanging out together Father's day morning. How adorable.

Here's Andrew showing off his father's day gift, a cordless drill:

We are so blessed to celebrate this years Father's day as a family of 3

Couldn't have asked for a better expression from Malachi!

7 Months

It seems a lot as happened in the last month. I didn't change Malachi from his dirty onsie because it shows that he's started eating! You can tell I'm a first time mom because there's a part of me that thinks his carrot stained onsie is kind of cute =) 

*More eating pics to come.

Also, you'll notice that he's sitting up on his own (for longer than a few seconds) and he's on the move! 

He's crawling all over the place!!!

This picture looks like Malachi is about to do a cartwheel!

Celebrating Malachi's 1/2 year old birthday with Robin

Auntie Robin was able to visit us this weekend. She brought Malachi some new shoes for this birthday and made him cake and cupcakes...don't worry we ate Malachi's share!

 

Thanks Robin for making his half birthday an actual celebration! =)

6 MONTHS!

I can't believe Malachi is 6 months already...It's just crazy!

I wasn't too happy with the lighting for these and he wasn't as smiley as he normally is, but they're still adorable:

 

 

 

   

 

 And my All-Time Favorite...that I just happened to capture:

Next up: Auntie Robin visited and make a 1/2 year birthday cake!

We got a scooter....

It's just the beginning....Malachi is starting to scoot, soon to be crawling and then getting into everything!
