Global News

Last night we had Tanya Beja from Global News come to our house to interview my 4 sisters and I (due to the fact that all 5 of us are pregnant). It was a cool experience because I love seeing the behind the scenes type stuff. How the camera man works (lighting he takes along, shots he needs) and how the story is put together (I may have asked a few questions!). It's sort of like a photo shoot in many ways.

They were at our house for 2 hours. The first hour was with my dad and all the kiddos. It was a bit wild as they did some shots of all of us playing in the corner of our basement for a bit. Of course my boys were pillow fighting with Opi amongst the playing. My favourite comment made by Kai likely didn't get caught on camera but when someone asked if there was a baby in mommy's belly, he said, `Actually, it's in her uterus!'.

The last hour was just the 5 of us sitting around the kitchen table. I know this sounds silly but I thought we would do it in our living room area so I kept that area of the house soooooo clean all day and then we didn't even use it. If you have kids, you know how hard it is to keep your house clean! Anyway, it was good. I think I didn't say some stuff clearly and hopefully I didn't say anything too ridiculous. It's just a feel good story so I hope that's how it comes across. We talked about the good and bad things about being pregnant together and also how it is for us to do this without our mom.

You may have seen a `teaser' on channel 11 (Global) already. I don't think it's the most amazing story so hopefully we were interesting enough? It will air on Monday sometime on the 6pm news.

I have a wicked headache today. Nothing like waking up with a headache. I know it's my fault for stressing yesterday and not eating properly. Tylenol to the rescue...

Have a great weekend:)

Love, Louise

PS Happy birthday mom! Koen and I sang Happy Birthday to you at breakfast time, you would've loved to have seen him singing, it was adorable.
