Whooo hoooo!!!!!</strong></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We sure have been through a lot with this munchkin. I was 18 weeks pregnant with him when his big sister Ruby passed away and his first ultrasound picture was the day before her funeral. We saw him for the first time on Valentine's Day of 2007. He PROUDLY displayed that he was a boy and here's his first perfect picture:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSnBTC0NsAdLw2uZhLvYApKM35950x4vwVVFd4kvtkeOUQp8VFWG_rIfjbENGA0wWzqVdOvQaCjQqdXylJm7hyl8wu0HtVOeE_PCM593HUQ04_NOFR_wO4O73a6aVlP0rvjdH0Z7mTEeY/s1600/Aizen+1st+Ultrasound.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239px" i$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSnBTC0NsAdLw2uZhLvYApKM35950x4vwVVFd4kvtkeOUQp8VFWG_rIfjbENGA0wWzqVdOvQaCjQqdXylJm7hyl8wu0HtVOeE_PCM593HUQ04_NOFR_wO4O73a6aVlP0rvjdH0Z7mTEeY/s320/Aizen+1st+Ultrasound.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I went high risk with him as I did with all my other pregnancies. Aizen wasn't planned but he was most certainly wanted. I went in every week from 31 weeks to 37 weeks to get an ultrasound done and he Always had his hand right near his right cheek. This picture is from when he was 34 weeks:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidvImYlF5qK9cGllt8rFjzJAM-AqxK_JipRW829mp4J3floZ8h4NSbYYi9iLyjqGR_RfiDWy7a43Li84vUxDMnEF9md70vTZVf2d9OPLPpwnIZANzNTXZ1otCg61gpLPOQrsg45OTx8sk/s1600/Aizen+2nd+Ultrasound.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238px" i$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidvImYlF5qK9cGllt8rFjzJAM-AqxK_JipRW829mp4J3floZ8h4NSbYYi9iLyjqGR_RfiDWy7a43Li84vUxDMnEF9md70vTZVf2d9OPLPpwnIZANzNTXZ1otCg61gpLPOQrsg45OTx8sk/s320/Aizen+2nd+Ultrasound.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It's called <a href="http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Self-Promotion-Introverts-Quiet-Guide-Nancy-Ancowitz/9780071591294-item.html?ikwid=nancy+ancowitz&ikwsec=Home">Self Promotion For Introverts by Nancy Ancowitz.</a> It's more related to the business world and how to work on yourself but there were some really great things I learned from it. The one that continues to come to me over and over again is one about receiving compliments. Here's the quote:<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"><strong>Refute Negative Self-Talk Instead Of Compliments</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">How do you respond to compliments? Do you deflect them or say that you don't really deserve them? You may be so used to minimizing compliments that you're not even aware that you're doing it. By denying a compliment, you are not only putting yourself down but you're also slighting the person who offered it by doubting her judgement or suggesting that her standards aren't high. Instead why not graciously say, "Thank you"?</span><br />
<br />
So often I don't think I'm good enough for compliments, they embarass me, I don't like the attention and b/c of my inner self dialogue I honestly don't believe most of them. This quote really got me thinking of how I'm affecting the other person by responding the way I do. It's kinda like saying thanks and then crumpling up their compliment and handing it back to them. I know I get mildly offended when someone doesn't take my sincere and heartfelt compliments, but I never thought about how my rejection affected others. I was too concerned with how I saw myself and what I thought about myself that it didn't even occur to me that I'd be hurting someone else's feelings by doing this.<br />
<br />
I'm now trying to take an assertive role and genuinely accepting compliments when they are given to me. It's not just about someone wanting to make me feel better, raise my self-esteem and help lift my spirits but it's about not hurting that person in return. =)</div>Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06131379701039402137noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913270991781873035.post-37438687263759899602011-04-16T13:12:00.001-04:002011-04-16T13:12:00.319-04:00Happy Birthday Ruby!!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">1:12pm today and my daughter would have been 6. I really miss my little girl but I have so many fond memories of her. She was born quickly after 4 hours of labour and 12 minutes of pushing (my babies come out quickly!! hehe). I remember holding her for the first time and instantly falling in love with her. She was doing that adorable little blinking she did, she never blinked quickly but had long blinks (here's a video of her ~ no sound ~ eating cheerios and you can see the long blinks she would do)</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwpvtQO4NKg7wes8qZsk_rlrl7LmtXhCHeqFG4e7fzgTo1dNhHgpvmjpSSx2tmvc1T1stkUZ3JuBBkOW3f3LA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I had a few hours of fawning over here and saw these little bumps in her mouth and had our doctor look at her. She had Teeth!!!! that were just bumps. Her first night home she was in bed with us, my finger rubbing her gums, helping her toofies cut through. You all would have really liked her and been charmed by her, she had these gorgeous bright blue eyes that glinted with mischeviousness.</div><br />
I'll write more about her later when I'm not so emotional, I miss my little girl so much and desperately wish she were here to blow out the candles on her cake. I miss you sweet Roo Roo and enjoy your birthday in your Saviour's arms!!!!

Here We Come!!!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Got the email today that Melody got accepted into the autism summer camp. We just filled out the extended questionarre and she is SO excited. I can't wait for her to experience this and to know she can do things on her own and away from home. She's nervous of course but I've got time to talk with her about things and I know she will have a good time once she is there a few days and gets to know her counsellors. Thank you all SO much for your prayers, this is such a big step for her and I think she's going to do amazingly!!!</div>Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06131379701039402137noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913270991781873035.post-56162052153414710032011-02-28T19:28:00.000-05:002011-02-28T19:28:20.144-05:00Prayers For Melody and Summer Camp<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">We found a really great camp in the Muskoka area that is designed for kids with autism that is free. It is paid for by our local autism family respite program and would be an awesome opportunity for her to work on her social skills and do some things that she has never done.<br />
<br />
She would go for an entire week and stay over night. She is assigned a counsellor and they do a lot of 1 on 1 activities and group bonding activities. It is done as a lottery system and we really hope that she gets picked.<br />
<br />
We covet your prayers that Melody will get picked and have a great time. She is so excited at the prospect of going and trying out some new things. Here is a link to the camp <a href="http://www.koc.on.ca/Autism/Default.aspx">Kinark Autism Camp</a>. The grounds look so pretty and it's very spacious. <br />
<br />
We also applied for a family weekend and the family week there. I can't wait to see if we are accepted for these. The family weekend would be so beneficial if Melody is chosen for the summer camp b/c it is held in May and June, so we would have an opportunity to go and see the grounds before she had her time later in the summer. =)</div>Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06131379701039402137noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913270991781873035.post-43136632199626244782011-01-18T22:38:00.002-05:002011-01-18T22:38:52.487-05:00Fairy Skirt For JennaI'm making matching fairy skirts and hairbows for Melody and her maplelea girl Jenna.

This is a start, I'll be back with more and I'll be reading them sporatically as I'm waiting on some from the library!!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913270991781873035.post-29556790955900933262010-12-25T21:59:00.000-05:002010-12-25T21:59:42.941-05:00Merry ChristmasIt's that time of year again when I'm both happy and sad. We had a nice Christmas and the kids had a really great time opening their presents. I "made" it through the day but really just wanted to stay in bed and sleep. I'm really missing Ruby and it was hard to watch the kids opening their presents knowing she isn't anywhere near us. It's hard to believe that this is our 4th Christmas without her, which soon means that we're drawing upon her 4 year going home anniversary.<br />
<br />
I hope you all had a great Christmas and that the new year has some awesome things in store for you. As always, please keep us in your prayers. They are definately helpful and I'll be back a bit later to tell you of some of the things we got for Christmas.<br />
<br />

She is a mama I know on my christian mama's forum. Her little Rhys died and she had to deliver him. She was due with him and my heart just breaks for her family. Please smother them in prayers for healing and that the Lord would pull them into His arms and just comfort their family. <br />
<br />
We love you Ruth and if you need anything, please let me know and I'll do all I can to support you sweetheart.

A few years ago, I used to make and sell Italian Charms. It's not a craft I am interested in anymore and I'm selling my stash so I can afford Christmas presents for the kids this year. So... here's the deal:<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">$5.00 for a starter bracelet</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">$1.00 per charm</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">$3.00 shipping for the starter bracelet and first charm, then</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">50 cents per charm.</span><br />
<br />
These are on a first come, first served basis. I have only one of each of these charms, except on page 6, where I have a duplicate of a couple charms. These are really nice charms. My photography skills on the other hand... well I am not very good at photographing shiny things.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #4c1130;">1. Choose (on page 6) what type of starter bracelet you would like. Shiny, matte or shiny with a gold coloured trim. Please measure loosely around your wrist and let me know in inches what that is so I can make sure your bracelet will be big enough to fit you.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138;">2. Write down the number of the charm you want. I made it really easy. Each line is a letter and then the number after it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">3. Leave a comment here with which ones you would like and your email. (I moderate ALL comments so they will not be published) I'll send you what the total will be and give you my paypal address. Once I receive the funds I'll get your bracelet all ready for you to wear when you get it.</span><br />
<br />
4. I'll update these pages when things get sold. Thanks for taking these charms off my hands!! These also make really nice Christmas presents!!!!<br />

They haven't been ironed so they might look a little funky, but the lines on the second one are straight. They are going to look great after they get ironed, matted, framed and given to the people receiving them. They have been prayed over and while I cross stitch I pray for those who are getting them. So Jules and William, you've got like 70 hours of prayer each covering ya!!!!! =D<br /><br />Here is the one for my good friend Julie. She has been such a dear friend to our family for so many years. She has supported me ever since I met her16 years ago.

There were 137 hats all in total. Mom and dad took care of the kids while Daniel and I went down on the subway. The hospital is right in the middle of downtown Toronto and it's actually easier and faster to take the subway down there.<br /><br />So, here are the hats that were taken down. As a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">coincidence</span>, today it is also 3 1/2 years since my <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Roo</span> was taken Home and the hats got delivered. I do it all in her memory.<br /><br />Here is the link to my <a href="http://www.rubysht.blogspot.com">Ruby's Heavenly Treasures blog</a>. Check it out if you haven't been there already. =D<br /><br />If you are in the Markham area and would like to help make hats or donate time, yarn, ink, paper (for the tags) or small safety pins; please leave a comment and I will get back to you. If you are not near me and still would like to help, leave me a comment and I will let you know how you could help put beautiful hats on some very precious child's head at this wonderful hospital.<br /><br />God bless, Dee =)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA8tC91sql7NqLlCjHJWFNmbwgvBZWMF-3vWcVAW1FabGVOZ8c-gE3l0nCQGpF7vW2w9W1vMMxq_9VKNdUv4LJ124mQXnbblhaA_Iz_H2vvYQZiJ-7tfoDclu4_FvcmTsZKHIsluGgDwE/s1600/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+1.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA8tC91sql7NqLlCjHJWFNmbwgvBZWMF-3vWcVAW1FabGVOZ8c-gE3l0nCQGpF7vW2w9W1vMMxq_9VKNdUv4LJ124mQXnbblhaA_Iz_H2vvYQZiJ-7tfoDclu4_FvcmTsZKHIsluGgDwE/s400/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505074025677368738" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHa9R44TBv8DLUVVXeRyOpSF3EN0GVXCP9rfx_Ogh6cSa9Kr-FhuNUrpTbkHnOgz8h7EfLmoke2QT4WVfPw-gMjyjwY-NNptX0xmjljILMw7D41n3LLY3lyNnxCfrqVsRuSi9KVG9YE00/s1600/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+2.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHa9R44TBv8DLUVVXeRyOpSF3EN0GVXCP9rfx_Ogh6cSa9Kr-FhuNUrpTbkHnOgz8h7EfLmoke2QT4WVfPw-gMjyjwY-NNptX0xmjljILMw7D41n3LLY3lyNnxCfrqVsRuSi9KVG9YE00/s400/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+2.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505073757324565474" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFbF8xfavpqh8xe4wqL3Fk9rdb7dqy-j0ENb30JYYly36YNongp9l9_5WZN6DniROah21q53hNL2IhmymP0UDZo8VPJGpyiGf5VrWNZepBDx14jZMawTOA5-JGOZpdiM9PMZOqgcMr3-U/s1600/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+3.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFbF8xfavpqh8xe4wqL3Fk9rdb7dqy-j0ENb30JYYly36YNongp9l9_5WZN6DniROah21q53hNL2IhmymP0UDZo8VPJGpyiGf5VrWNZepBDx14jZMawTOA5-JGOZpdiM9PMZOqgcMr3-U/s400/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+3.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505073645508240050" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_2M1wtJOmaN-odLc98h8LiYFgaCRVMQGK4pBAyQcZM6vmhcn0t7aB3DhV09uwJhqmMfm4sMzxQejz0Nk_B74EC9piY4_kqNq14ICuxl-bOsmsci5wvfa2HLCjZIticsMbhA-KTo4YH0U/s1600/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+4.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_2M1wtJOmaN-odLc98h8LiYFgaCRVMQGK4pBAyQcZM6vmhcn0t7aB3DhV09uwJhqmMfm4sMzxQejz0Nk_B74EC9piY4_kqNq14ICuxl-bOsmsci5wvfa2HLCjZIticsMbhA-KTo4YH0U/s400/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+4.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505073553566338194" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq30BCbU_X8QN_9dSqj5sRw6v3KgoyHQsU4L02MkhD2lQ9tZ36E20dcebrWGWizBpbDDqw8td3Z7qYh_xWC867jR-xaBwAi4UWncug-6S11pSHggTOhVHJDMcr6DESN9zjEZvf2R5Qohg/s1600/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+5.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq30BCbU_X8QN_9dSqj5sRw6v3KgoyHQsU4L02MkhD2lQ9tZ36E20dcebrWGWizBpbDDqw8td3Z7qYh_xWC867jR-xaBwAi4UWncug-6S11pSHggTOhVHJDMcr6DESN9zjEZvf2R5Qohg/s400/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+5.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505073436563409506" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWKKvzLvsT7MJpr4bupRM8RzX9Q0Y-xXPojjwj49bRaFuGzspbdaUPHkXo5sSJFt824DMjJDA-Ef5lDJLC1XZyYUdUTsPzu7KnRJRS0SIpnm_5ZLPStqM7dIWchSvM1qM7nfGQktKVbwo/s1600/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+6.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWKKvzLvsT7MJpr4bupRM8RzX9Q0Y-xXPojjwj49bRaFuGzspbdaUPHkXo5sSJFt824DMjJDA-Ef5lDJLC1XZyYUdUTsPzu7KnRJRS0SIpnm_5ZLPStqM7dIWchSvM1qM7nfGQktKVbwo/s400/July+2010+Sick+Kids+Hats+137+-+6.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505073327298359314" border="0" /></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913270991781873035.post-60353175295000152152010-07-18T21:56:00.027-04:002010-07-18T22:25:03.847-04:00Our Time In MuskokaWe've been home for a few hours and I'm exhausted. I definately need a vacation after my vacation, anyone else ever feel that way when you come home from a vacation with children? It was both awesome and difficult at times.
