Benjamin Anton Brokaar
Benjamin Anton Brokaar-born June 23, 2011 at 8:46 am--what a cutie eh? He made a quick arrival and did so well right from the start-so good that we got to go home the same day. We left for Elgin at 6 am are got back at 4 pm with our new little boy!Proud Papa with his little boy!
Waiting for the pediatrician to release us from the hospital...
AHHH so nice to be home-Em and Sam were sick with bad colds, so it was easier on everyone if we didn't have to drag them around to the hospital for the next days...and Ben really wanted to meet his siblings!
Getting to hold Baby Benjamin for the first time-about about 8 hours after he was born!Kerry holding Ben-she helped us so much by looking after the older two--couldn't have done it without her!

Jan-Jun 2011-pre Benjamin catchup!
So I took a few months off from updating the blog...opps...So here in one huge post are a few photos from January through early June...will introduce Benjamin in the next post...you can see glimpses of him below-in my rather large belly!This pic was taken about 2 weeks before Benjamin was born so I am looking pretty large and in charge...weird to see this pics now as it is just Em and Sam...without Ben!
Em's school had a sports day and Emma had lots of fun with the big kids...this is her friend from nursery-Samantha!
A natural runner!!
In the River Deveron up the road from our house.
Taken April 28th...still lots of time to cook yet!
Emma's first day of nursery-she was so good...told me right away I didn't need to stay at all. Big girl!
Our summer-which was in April this year-a fun day at the beach!
the kids love finger painting....what a mess!
Me early in April...
In March we went to Holland to see Peter's family...fun times to be together before Peter's sister moves away for a few years....
the five cousins
cuddling with Uncle Ediwn!
Baking with Aunt Karen
My favorite Brokaar tradition---the chocolate fountain!
Em loves jumping off this slide that Peter made...
Em is starting to write more and more-she is so proud of herself---and so are we!
Ria is gone :{ our good friend left us for a boy!!! but we are very excited that Ria and Andreas are together-but we miss them dearly!
playing football in the snow!!
These are from February-fun sledding!
