Big sister

Well, Madison is such a great big sister.  The first thing she says to me when i get her in the mornings is 'Lukas???"  Then i went to mom and dads and when it was time to go, Madison wasn't putting her shoes and Jacket on so dad said to her.  'Ok, bye madison.  Opa is going with Lukas, Bye, Bye.'  Man did we experience a freak out on her behalf.  Lastly.  Mom and i were in Superstore when mom started to walk away with the cart while Lukas was in it.  I wasn't going with her and Madison started crying.  I told her to go with Oma, but that just wasn't good enough.  She had to keep all three of us together.  Im so thankful that she adjusted so easily.  I think because she's so young still, she doesn't remember a time without Lukas anymore.  Hopefully she remains that way when we have another one.  Then she really can help me out more.

Lukas Hummelman

Lukas Edward Hummelman was born on October 15, 2008 @ 2:06 am after 5 minutes of pushing.  I was induced and within the first half hour the contractions started and didn't stop.  So that means 11:30am on the 14th until he was born.  My water didn't break until 2 am though so i guess thats when people start counting actually labour.  We definately weren't expecting to see a little boy when he came so it was quite the surprise for Jake and I. Jake was overwhelmed with the idea of having a little boy.
We couldn't have been luckier with Madison either.  She is doing great and so excited to have a little brother.  She doesn't understand how careful to be around Lukas, but keeps going back for more.

I'll keep everyone updated as time goes on though, but for now, Jake, Madison and I are just enjoying this addition to our family and the changes that come with him.

BOY !!!!!!!

Birthdays and soon to be babies

              We are only 11 days away from Angelikas due date, looking forward to the craziness of a tiny baby (as madison calls them) in the house. We both had our birthdays in september with me turning 25 and Angelika turning 28. For Angelikas birthday we brought down her best friend from invermere and she stayed with us for the week. Madison will still randomly ask where theo (karens oldest) is. 

                We also went to the MCC sale with Rachel Cornelsen, Andrew was taking his hunting license so i was forced to eat his share of farmer sausage. It was pretty cool and next year i will sit at the auction all day buying things. love auctions. 

                Angelika has developed a pretty bad cough for the last ten days and hasnt been sleeping well/at all, she is looking forward to getting some sleep before the baby comes and she will start losing it again, my responsibility at night will be madison (easy) and during the day to make sure i give her lots of attention when the baby comes, which means we are going to drive over speed bumps and visit home depot and most likely watch hockey together. I will post as soon as the baby arrives, im sure im allowed labtops in the hospital.
