It's been almost a year since my last update...

And a lot has happened.

The most important change since my last blog entry is that I've become a Mom. Little Tristan was born weighing 8lbs 10oz. Of all of the things I've done in my life, he's by far the best.

So, what's he like? Well, he likes to study things; he tends to stare and ponder the world around him. He has an incredibly contagious smile. He loves kisses and hugs. Tristan is definitely his father's son... he's all Dad and doesn't look a thing like me. My little guy loves adventures - especially trips to the zoo. It's such a gift to watch him grow.

What else? I'm now engaged to the love of my life, Stuart. He is a kind and loving man, and a truly wonderful Dad. We haven't set a date yet, as we're working on our home in Calgary.

Our Calgary home renovations hit a few snags, so we're not quite there yet. We have all of our appliances, windows, exterior doors and kitchen cabinets ready to go... we just need our permits to continue the work. But, once it's ready, it will be comfortable. As long as Stu, Tristan and I are together - where ever we are is home.

That's it for now... More soon...
