Christmas came with lots of love and family. We were very fortunate to have family come to us. Nanny and Grampy came from NS.. They stayed in a hotel and we were able to go enjoy the watersides for them. Nanny brought her boys matching Christmas sweaters and taught them how to make blueberry pie. Papa came and was the first to watch all 4 boys while Jim and I went out to his christmas party. He helped them make a gingerbread house and men.

It was a wonderful Christmas!

A very quick update on our last halloween.. Oct 2014

Since I am so far behind.

Along with a couple shots of Owen and his Best Bud Levi

OH MY GOODNESS!! IT"S MARCH!

I can't believe that I haven't updated this since Ronan was born. Where have I been? What Have I been doing? Let me tell you 3 was easy!! Four is a whole new ball game. I am so LOST! Laundry is a constant..no matter how much I do or fold the laundry room floor is always full.  AND BOYS....BOYS EAT ALOT!! So I guess Im cooking, feeding, washing and trying to sleep and hang on to this ride.

Here are just a few pictures from when Ronan came home.. The boys are busy but the are ever loving their new little brother Ronan.

October 23 2014

6:30am Jim and I head to the  Lethbridge Regional Hospital for the birth of our last son,

Ronan Jude Mellish

( Dr. Jim was on duty for the Surgery..)

Our Family is complete! 

All the boys were very excited to come and visit their

new baby brother Ronan. ( although it sounds

like they were having a lot of fun with their papa at home)

Cousins

Although we are closer to our family, life is busy and still seems like we don't see each other

as much as we would like. The kids are all in school, sports and music and each one is growing so fast..

So when we get a chance like this to just run free altogether we take advantage of it..

( Thanks for the visit.. T, A,T & E.)

Thanksgiving~  We took a trip to papas house, a getaway before the baby was to arrive and

time to teach the boys to fish. They were ever so excited. To be honest the boat ride was enough for Owen.. he dropped his fishing rod in the lake after about an hour of fishing.. never to be seen again.

Logan, Ethan, Jim and I got really good at casting but sadly there were no fish

on the end of our rods the whole weekend. We definetly enjoyed our time with papa and

had a wonderful  salmon thanksgiving dinner, but we will have to wait till next year to 

catch a fish.

( to be honest daddy .. was the most disappointed about not catching anything!) 

Owens Preschool Class went to the Corn Maze.

What a fun field trip with petting zoo, pumpkins, hay ride and

of course corn mazes to run through..

What a great morning we had.. and as I said " thanks!" to my sweet 3 yr old for letting me join him

he turned and hugged me and said " thanks for driving me mommy!"

Oh my... this boy holds my heart in a way like no other!

                                       Picture Day at school! Take one... I mean Take two!!!
                              Honestly..What a bunch of Cuties Jim and I made.. Amazing!!

Feeling the baby move...

Ive never been one who enjoys others touching my belly while pregnant , except for by my husband and maybe my dad..

This is our last little baby and of course the boys have been trying so hard to feel and connect with

this new little one. Well let me tell you this was the morning that everyone got to feel him, and no one was going to be left out...

Logan- I can feel his arm..

Ethan- I think that was his foot..

Owen- Oooohh, thats funny mom!!

The PUMPKIN Run!

Ethan and Logan have worked hard this fall training with there awesome running club at school.

Three times a week they meet and run and have a race in the fall and spring. I Just Love that the boys are really enjoying at a young age this great sport. Race day was beautiful and our boys ran so well.

               Owen in his Dr. Probe running shirt Supporting his Brothers.. (by drinking there water...)

          Even Owen was given a Pumpkin which of course made his day that he wasn't left out!!

Logan Turns 8!!

He is just so sweet and funny!

It is just such a joy to watch him grow, he is growing into

such a great kid!

There is nothing like a skating birthday Party.

Just us Mellish's and Uncle Andrew!
