Huxley, the big brother


Huxley's school had a spring program. The students at Big Wood School sang songs for their parents.

The two year olds were quite entertaining

Brierley slept through the performance

When Gabe found out they were having a daughter, he said, "That requires a whole new skill set."

We are trying to decide if Brierley looks like Huxley.



Here's Huxley when he was just a few weeks older than Brierley. He was definitely bigger by a whole pound at birth.

Sarah Brierley Schroder born April 18, 2016

Brierley - the fourth generation with that name -
Great-great grandfather - Bernard Brierley
Grandfather- Stephen Brierley
Mother - Katherine Brierley
and now Sarah Brierley
But in this generation, she will be called Brierley

Katherine's delivery was an amazing 47 minutes

Getting to be Grander

It has been too long since I last posted anything to this blog. Huxley is now two and a half, he has a new cousin - Elle Alison Schoene, and he has a baby sister on the way. So, soon Stephen and I will be the proud grand parents of three little ones.

Huxley, Katherine and Gabe came to visit in September. Huxley and Katherine came again in January to attend the baby shower celebration given for David and Kati.
Here are some pictures of those visits.

We celebrated Christmas in January once our kids were home. 



Kati's baby due in February and Katherine's due in April. 
Picture taken in January.

Buzzy and Alison came to the party at Maureen and Don's to celebrate the baby.

We had a "Sprinkle" for Katherine at our house the next day.
Both Katherine and her friend Graham were pregnant - Graham due in March..
