Along For The Ride

Hey everyone!  I wanted to post a short video that shows the important spots for us here in Toronto through our windshield.  I sped up the video because 24 minutes of Canadian traffic is about as exciting as it sounds.  I don't actually drive this fast.  Erin on the other hand...

Here In Toronto

The Vazquez Family!

     Well everyone, the Vazquez family is in Toronto now (actually for the last 5 months). We finally are writing an update now because I am desperately looking for a way to avoid changing another diaper (and Erin said this was a good reason). We now have two children in diapers, Elias was born August 25th at 10 lbs and 20.9 inches. Sophia, of course, is 21 months and about ready for those pull-ups (but as you can see, it takes us 5 months to write an update so Sophia will be lucky to be potty trained by her teen years). 

      Sleep hasn't been a problem, especially while I'm driving (I catch a few Z's at the stop lights and on mostly straight roads). Erin has been supermom day and night and is recovering very well from child birth. Sophia is jealous but coping and getting better everyday. She loves her brother. She loves her parents. She just doesn't love when her parents hold her brother (or feed him or change him or look at him).

      We've been blessed by Erin's mom and dad, Kay and Ron, during the birth and her sister, Mandy, afterward. They've done cooking, cleaning, changing, burping, and rocking with such loving generosity. Thank God for good family! Well I won't try to catch you up all in one post so more to come (some time in January at this pace).
