Two Mamas: Our baby boys

Spent yesterday in Saint John, visiting family and friends.  Had such a great visit with my dear childhood friend, Danielle and her son, Wesley.  We grew up together but when she turned seven, her family moved to Saint John.  We've chatted on and off over the past few years, but when we both found out we were pregnant, we reconnected.  Through facebook, emails, texting and phoning, we have created a "cross-continent" mama connection for each other.  So neat to meet her son, finally after seeing pictures.  They are roughly the same size and playing in similar ways.  Wesley is so happy, smiley and content.  And then, amazingly, both boys went to sleep at the same time, allowing us some time to ourselves to chat.  Wish we were closer!  Then Wesley could teach Gabriel all about crawling.  How lovely it would be to have playtime (and mama time) with babes the same age.


Just noticed that I completely neglected to get a picture of Danielle, who looks lovely by the way!  I guess it's that stage of life where we become just the toes in the picture (see picture above -- cute toes) or the hands holding the baby.
