To Daddy...From Jade & Logan

I am going to put this up in Jade and Logan's rooms...because this sums up the type of Daddy William is to Jade and I know he will be for Logan, not many girls in the world are as lucky as they are to have a Daddy like him.

Bless you William for the Father you are - The best kind there is!!

Logan's Bump 21 Weeks 5 days


 
Logan's Bump...BIG bump...lol


 
Jadie talking to her little sister


Kisses for my sissie


Alexander Girls

Logan Claire Alexander - 21 weeks 4 Days Scan - SHE IS A GIRL


Our beautiful baby girl - LOGAN CLAIRE ALEXANDER


 
See...I am a GIRL...NO DOUBT...hehehehe


 
My hand and 5 fingers


My foot and 5 toes
 
 
So our little Princess surprised us today!!!
 
First and most important, she is 100% healthy.
 
We were at the Fetal Assessment Centre, the Dr. checked everything, 10 toes, 10 fingers, Brain, Stomach, Lungs, Heart...EVERYTHING. (A whole long list)
And everything is normal. He was extremely pleased with her.
 
Heartbeat: 153 bpm
Weight:       423 grams
 
That’s also when he broke the news...that Logan...will not be William Logan Alexander....but rather Logan Claire Alexander.
WHAT A SHOCK...but still completely amazed and beyond happy that God blessed us with another healthy beautiful baby.
I was in 2 minds about the blog, to delete all the previous post written about Logan....as they were all written for a boy. But then decided to keep it as it...it’s part of her journey.
Besides, the Doctors thought I was a boy...until the day I was born, so we already have something in common.
Jade is over the moon that she will be getting a little sister, her exact words: “A girl Bibbles is so much better than a boy Bibbles” lol lol....guess BIBBLES still stuck either way.
 
“How you surprised us baby girl...but do not for one second think that we are not overjoyed by the thought of having another beautiful little girl – and how exciting has our journey together been so far...full of surprises...and life my Baby is always full of surprises that’s what makes it so interesting and fun!
 -WE LOVE YOU ENDLESSLY BEAUTIFUL LOGAN-”

I am Thankful


 
Thank you God for all the blessings in my life

Daddy felt Logan move

 
On Sunday, 23 September 2012, William felt Logan move for the first time.
 
Think he was just saying "Hi Daddy" and since then he has been VERY VERY busy, been feeling him much more and much stronger, it's so special.
 
We love you Logan...and we all counting days to meet you!

Tinkerbell Movie



Jade LOVES going to the movies and since we watched Brave and the preview (or prevideo as Jade calls it) was showing of Tinkerbell she couldnt wait to come and see it.

So Monday, Daddy played golf and us girls (Oumie, Jade and myself) watched Tinkerbell, was so cute and she LOVED it and I LOVE spending time with her.

One of those moments...


Priceless moment...

Jade finished 1st in her class! So proud of you Jadie pie!
 
Thank you, Trace, Rikus, Shannon and Ouma Nettie for coming to support Jade, means a lot that you were there. Also thank you to each and every person who sponsored Jade for her walk, it is really appreciated! We love you all very much.
 
Thank you to all the teachers who made this day possible, Jade is so blessed to be apart of such a wonderful little family....I say family...because this is no ordinary school...this is a family.

Logan's Bump - 20 weeks 3 days




 
 
Jade talks to Logan aka Bibbles, everyday, she kisses my tummy in the mornings and at night before we go to sleep. She sings to him and tells him how much she loves him. It is so special, no words can describe it. I am sure when he is born, he will know her voice and there will be an instant bond between them.
 
You are so loved Logan - we all very excited to have you in our lives.
 
 
"Dear God, I want to say a special prayer for Logan today. Please protect him and me until he is ready to be born, let him be healthy and let us have a healthy delivery and bless him now until he is born and everyday of his life with happiness and love, keep him from harm and protect him every day of his life. We thank You for this blessing and off course continue to Thank You for our Jade and we give both our Children to You, because we know there is no safer place than in Your powerful hands. We ask this all in Jesus' name. Amen"

SUN CITY - THE PALACE OF THE LOST CITY



 Daddy's Princess



 Pancake Breakfast
 
Not ours...but WOW...




Princess Jade, having her tea!

Not at all what we planned, but still perfect!

 
Poor little Marnus fell ill and was taken up in hospital, so Grizelda couldn’t go with to Sun City the weekend.
We are just happy he is healthy again and at home and as cute as ever!

 
So myself and Brian still went through. William phoned me later on Friday evening and said he will bring Jade for me on Saturday morning, he will leave at 6 and will be there just after 8, so she can spend the day with me and then come home with me and Brian on Sunday. I was OVER THE MOON happy.  Next morning just as I woke up, they were there, best part William also got to stay. We had so much fun, we showed Jade the valley of the waves (we couldn’t swim, unfortunately it was very cold that day), nevertheless she had fun on the beach. Also took her to the game arcade...WHAT A BLAST. We all joined in and played games to win her tickets for a prize – the amount of money we spend on getting tickets...we could have bought her a HUGE prezzie...but it wouldn’t have been the same fun.

 
Also, for breakfast we got to eat pancakes with any toppings we want (REAL PRINCESS STYLE). Jade’s first pancake had flake and jelly tots on. The next morning...she want for the normal cinnamon sugar...but 2. Also all the staff at the Palace are AMAZING, every time they spoke to Jade, they referred to her as a Princess and she off course LOVED that.

 
On their way to Sun City, William phoned me and I was talking to them on blue tooth. I said to Jade: “Love you know we staying in a real Palace” Her reply to me: “Are you serious Mommy, are you serious? Don’t even joke with me now!” It was priceless!

 
Thank you Brian for this AMAZING weekend, how do we ever thank you for all you do for us? We love you very very much.

Sleeping Beauty...


Watching you sleep...you truly are an Angel.

I love you Jade, with all my heart!

My hart se punt!



She fits in the suitcase...


Going to Sun City for the weekend with Brian...Jade fits in the suitcase, so I think I can take her with, no one will even know!

Going to miss you Jadie pie, but have fun with Daddy, I am sure he is going to spoil you rotten :-)

Swimming Lessons




Jade started swimming lessons about 3 weeks ago. She is doing so well and best of all she is LOVING it.

Our very own Little Mermaid!

What is God?

 
Are you looking for me?
I am in the next seat.
My shoulder is against yours.
You will not find me in the Stupas,
not in the Shrines,
Nor in the Temples or Mosques.
When you really look for me,
you will see me instantly.
You will find me in the tiniest house of time.
Asks Kabir: Tell me, What is God?
 
He is the breath inside the breath.

Hold on...

 
 
When you think your faith has failed you,
all your hopes and dreams are gone,
listen to the Angel voice that wispers,
"just hold on"
