Current News…

10:54 pm, April 17th, 2007

Well a very quick update on life. I have not got the photos from Maddie’s birthday on this computer yet. So it will be a little while before I can get them on here. I have redesigned my website take a look: www.ehdesign.ca I have also added a gallery of my work I have been doing over the last few years here: www.ehgallery.ca (There are recent photos of Maddie on there…) Well onto the bigger news! Lisa, Maddie and I tokk a trip to Moncton this afternoon. Last night Lisa thought her water might have broken.. well more like a tear since it was a little bit of fluid. We called the hospital and they wanted her to come in to get checked out. There was no tear from what they could find and all is well, but Lisa is 2-3 cm dilated now. She has been having contraction over the last month off and on so nothing new there, but they do seem to be getting a bit stronger. So we might have to head back to Moncton again soon. Or maybe it might be in 12 days when she is really due. Who knows baby Jack might be here soon. So keep an eye on on on here for updates, and photos when it happens!

News, news, and more news.

11:42 am, February 3rd, 2007

Well it have been a very long time since we updated this. Lisa and I have been very busy over the last few months. I am going to teach Lisa how to use this so it will get updated more. Where do I start??? As everyone knows by now Lisa is pregnant again and is due on April 29. That means Maddie and the next little one will be a little over 12 months apart. We do not have a girls name picked out but we do have a boys name picked out - Jack Spurgeon Wilson. And as far as we know Jack is we need to pick out! Yes that’s right we are having a boy!

Maddie is doing well. She is 10 months old as of yesterday. She is not walking yet but is able to stand on her own and “walk” around anything she is holding on to like the coffee table. Crawling is not a problem at all she is all over the place. The big news about Maddie though is this… She finally got a tooth! It starting coming in today. If the old saying is true that the longer your teeth to take to come in the better they will be… I think hers will be really good!

Lisa is now babysitting a little boy from Jamaica this school semester. The boys mom is going to BBC this year. Lisa only have him when he is not in kindergarten and his mom is in class. Lisa might also be babysitting another little boy for a few weeks while his mom does research for her Masters. Other than that she has been keeping busy with Maddie all day.

I have been busy with work at BBC as always. The new BBC website is on its way and I am working on it trying to get it done and ready to go live. My business eh design is doing well too. So between BBC and eh design I have been doing more than enough work. I am looking forward to summer when I can get outside and go places. Speaking of going places… every Wednesday night I am going to Saint John for a few weeks. I am taking a photography course there from a staff photographer for the Telegraph Journal named Noel Chenier. If you have a film or digital SLR and want to learn more I would recommend taking one of his courses.

The cats are both doing well. Lisa put up with Maddie but does not like it when Maddie starts screeching. Dina on the the other hand loves Maddie. He will lay down and Maddie will pet, hit and pull his fur and he does not mind at all. Dina has been real clingy lately. I think he knows something is up. He meows a lot too. I think he is trying to get as much attention as he can before Jack comes.

Well I need to run for now. I have to go scoop the cats litter box, shovel snow, and work on some eh design stuff. We do have an ultrasound photo of Jack and I will try to get it scanned and on here to everyone can see it.

Fundy Trail Parkway

9:23 pm, October 8th, 2006

Yesterday Jenny and Andrew Walker plus Lisa, Maddie and I went on a day trip to the Fundy Trail Parkway. We left a little after 11 AM and did not get home until 8:30 PM! It was a perfect day. Clear sunny and not too cold. We had a picnic lunch on top of a big hill overlooking the bay. While we were up there we saw a lookout lower down on the next hill over. We decided to hike down to that overlook because none of us had been down there before. Well will did not find the lookout but ended up down the bottom of a steep hill and three flights of stairs in a little cove. The tide was high but going out so we were able to walk around there. Andy and I went across a little stream and climbed up on some rocks and explored around. Jenny was nice enough to take some photos of Lisa, Maddie and I there. Well when it was time to leave Andy and I carried the stroller up the stairs and then Lisa and I took turn pushing the stroller up the hill. We then went to the end of the Parkway and went across the suspension bridge there and visited the interpretative center. On the way out of the Parkway we decided to eat at The Caves Restaurant. After that Andy and I decided to explore the sea cave right next to the restaurant. Good thing I had my sandals on. There was a stream we had to cross to get to it. So Andy hopped on my back and I carried him across. On the way back there were some BBC students walking up and saw me carrying him and they all though it was very funny. After that we drove around and saw the lighthouse in St. Martin’s. Then headed home. It was a great fall day and we can’t wait until spring for the Parkway to open again. Enjoy the photos!

Halifax and Back in one day…

6:31 pm, September 17th, 2006

Well it had been since July 1st since Lisa or myself updated this thing called a blog. Lisa and Maddie are gone for a few days to visit family in Bristol and left me all alone here in Sussex. So what is a guy supposed to do when he is all alone? Work? Never! I took a road trip to Halifax yesterday with Matt Valentini and met up with Dean Landry while we were in town. We went to MicMac Mall, (Dean found a pair of shoes after looking for a whole year) MEC (great store and online/catalog store for outdoor stuff - buy a membership!), and drove around Halifax. For supper we ordered a pizza from Pizza Hut. It was only a take out store so we headed off to find a place to eat after geting it. We ended up sitting on some bleachers watching two soccor games going on while we ate. On the way back to drop off Dean in Eastern Passage we stopped on the Dartmough waterfront and took some photos of Halifax at night. It was a fun day and a great way to wind down after a long work week. I am looking forward to taking another trip sometime soon… more on that later if it pans out.
