In addition to taking lots and lots of photos of Oliver, we’ve also used our wonderful little Flip Ultra HD camcorder to record some of Oliver’s finer moments on video…
This day was so beautiful, weather-wise, we decided to take a picnic lunch to the Heart Lake Conservation Area. Ok, so we bought subs from Subway and took them and ate them…
Day 170 saw the family take a walk to downtown Brampton to visit Gage Park. We took the camera along just in case there were any good moments to capture throughout the day. Little did we know…
Once again, Oliver and I had the morning to ourselves. Dana was off getting her hair done at Salon Soho in Sherway Gardens (see James, tell them Dana sent you Hahaha!) …
Oliver’s first Easter meant that he got some extra special gifts. As you can see from the photos below, Oliver got a wide range of gifts from his Grandparents and Aunts and Uncles…
On Good Friday, we spent the late morning/early afternoon at Ross and Sharon Ruprecht’s, enjoying a wonderful Easter Brunch. All the family was there, happy as could be not to be at school…
More candid photos! Don’t you just love them? This morning we spent some time in Oliver’s room, playing on the floor and just snapping the camera when we wanted. Towards the end…
During the early months of 2009, I had a photo shoot for a family friend of ours. Roman Citta is just a little younger than Oliver and his parents wanted to get some shots of him at three months…
So what happens when Mum leaves early on a Saturday morning to get her hair cut? Well, Daddy and Son will play, that’s what happens! On this particular morning, I had another vision of what to do with Oliver…
Valentine’s Day. A special day in every couples’ heart. Oliver was two and a half months old at that point and Dana and I hadn’t been out by ourselves since before he was born. So, in an attempt to get a little alone time…
More fun pictures of Oliver! Woo hoo! This time around, we snapped some pictures of Oliver in his Baby Bjorn, looking all cool (and a little stunned!!) in his knitted hoodie…
Guess what? Its more pictures of our little guy! Like you would ever get tired of that! During this four day period, we took some pictures of Oliver celebrating his first days of 2009…
Three words: Oliver’s First Christmas! What a blast we had! We thought the easiest thing to do would be to host both the Connell and the Ruprecht families at our house for Christmas Day dinner.
Dana, Oliver and I took some time one morning when the sun was streaming in through all the windows in the house to take some natural light photos. I was going for a very heavenly, angelic look to these photos…
Having two weeks off from work really turned out well for us when Oliver was born. It gave me a chance to take the burden off of Dana and allow her to do what she needed to do desperately….recover.
Day three saw us say goodbye to our new friends at Headwaters Hospital and take Oliver home for the first time. To think, in just 72 hours of Dana having major surgery, we were leaving the hospital and going home….
We slept a bit the first night, but it was an early morning for us to start day two. We had a visit from Grandma and Grandpaw, as well as Auntie Alison and Cousin Julia. Julia was so cute with Oliver…
Our son, Oliver Trevor Jay Connell, was born on this day, November 30th, 2008 at Headwater’s Hospital in Orangeville Ontario Canada. It’s true when you hear people say that the birth of their child changes their lives forever…
