Hey Family...

Just arrived in Portland for my .Net training! Its a little "different" traveling alone, but I'm at my hotel now. My training is in the same hotel I'm staying in. Thank god.

So, found the ice machine, checked out the training area and now... I'm kinda bored. Good thing they have free internet for me here! And, I never thought I would see the day that I'm glad my hotel has a fitness room. I used to wonder who would be crazy enough to work out while they're on "holidays"... now I know.

Ok, hittin the hay now. I'll keep you posted on my training! As if you really care...

ADDY, ADDY, ADDY

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!. Addyson is sooooo cute. Love those pudgy little cheeks. The "Polar Bear" is so adorable. Just my little peanut peeking out and the best of all, Daddy and Addy. Gotta love it Bill. Gives a new meaning to Go Riders Go. Keep us posted.

Baby Addy's first blog

Can you spot the baby? or the polar bear?

Hello...hello....is anybody there? Human contact in any form? Yes, this is MOMMY blogging. FINALLY! Someone has decided to lay down in her crib for a nap. Yes, MOMMY handsfree! OMG!!

Well, here are some pics that you haven't yet seen including the one that Darin has been patiently waiting for. Actually Addyson may have changed her opinion of John Deere. She went from loving her blanket to peeing on it the other night around bath time! Well, she's done a fair bit of that lately.

We are very busy at home these days but you'll all have an opportunity to see how that works when you come to visit us. Nanny Cons can already tell you that we've gone nonstop to satisfy this 8 pound boss!!

GO RIDERS!!!!!

First Lab

As you probably all know, we were in Chestermere Friday nite. What you might not know is I had an Optical Lab to attend Saturday. Connie, Lori and Lincoln tried to talk me into playing hooky or at least sleeping in and showing up fashionably LATE. Lincoln loved this suggestion....sending me with a brown bag lunch.....I can still hear him laughing. Man, I get the feeling those 4 Lemieux children were pulling off lots of tricks I didn't hear about while they were in school. Does anyone want to post an unknown story??? Come on, lets see who has the best. I dare you. Anyways we're back in The Hat and I finally have a day off tomorrow.

Finally.

Well after about 20 min I finally figured out how to log in to this again. Well anyways im so happy to be an uncle now, but I havent seen any picture of the blanket which has been made for her. Hmmmmm where is that? I put lots of time into that. LOL. Well actually it was Sara and her Mom, but i had to beg them lots to make it for me. Any ways hope everything is going great!

Back to Work

Well, we made it to Regina Saturday. Addyson is the most beautiful baby in the world. She's absolutely gorgeous! She's a curious little bundle. Maybe she can't see us just yet but she definitely can hear us. She stole Grandpa's heart. He's a big softie.

I'm went back to work today. I actually got paid to show-off Addy's pics cause everyone was stopping me and congratulating me. (I just happen to have a photo album in my pocket, haha) It was awesome! Thanks Kim and Bill for the first grandchild and I thank God for that healthy little girl everyday.

Awwwww

She is super cute! I love her! Tx for posting pics.

Connie... i don't know how you posted the last ones but you can't click on them to get the full version. The first one worked. All you have to do is insert the full version and it will resize it for you (then we can still click it to get the full high quality pic). Can you just email some to me if you have a sec?

Addyson Sheila Renaud

Here are some pics of baby Addyson. She had her first bath tonight and I must say she was pretty good!! We don't have any Mom, Dad and Addyson pics on the computer yet....maybe we'll get that done tomorrow!

Daddy and Gramma feeding Addy her first shooter

Baby Pics???

Aunty Connie, please post some pics! Aunty Lori wants to see the baby... Even tho she's already taken over my thanksgiving turkey. Hmmm... guess the little rascal is already more important than making me turkey! Oh well... I'm sure she's worth the sacrifice (and many more to come).

BABY NEWS FLASH

Yes, it finally happened!#!#!#! Kimberly and Billy are parents to a beautiful baby girl. "Baby No-Name" weighs 7 pounds 4 ounces and apparently has lots of hair. (Guess we know where that comes from). Anyways Congratulations and Welcome to Parenthood. I'm sure she will be a joy in the years to come. Can't wait to meet our first granddaughter.

Hoping......

Well, I'm hoping that no news today is good news for a little later.......

....do I hear Jr yet??????

Dear Kim and Bill

Please check yourselves into the Regina General Hospital and ask them to speed up the process. We want the baby!!!

Thank You, Have a nice day!

Still no one home...

Well, the nonstress test went well and baby is SUPER active. (s)he is nutso and wiggles around like crazy! I think that we have a little turkey on our hands....almost literally since (s)he'll make his appearance around the turkey-lurkey weekend! We just have to be patient....I guess. The lady at the hospital said I was pretty patient bcuz the last gal she saw said "get this baby out NOW" (she was overdue too).

Good Night!! We'll see if there is any action by tomorrow!!!

Slow Poke

I think this will be a fair representation of what the little peanut could look like when it finally comes out.
We know its slow... and according to dad, he'll be shaving... here he's already losing his hair.

How Sweet

Looks like the little nut is taking after auntie Lori. Geez... she hasn't even met me yet and she already wants to be just like me. How sweet!

Dear Baby (boy) Lemieux-Renaud

Where are you? Your mom, dad, gramma, grampa, and all your aunts and uncles want to meet you!! Will you hurry it up please? I'm not sure where you're getting your tardiness from, but please come and visit us soon!!!

Love Auntie Connie and Uncle Gavin

Gotta be today...

Heeeello little baby! Where are you??!??? Come out, come out, wherever you are! I'm gonna count to 1 million... and if you're still not out... I'll... I'll... just count more.

Tick, Tick, Tick

Okay Little Unknown Person, Gramma and Grampa are waiting patiently. It's time to play Peek-A-Boo. Billy, can't you scare Kim or something to speed things up?
