airdrielife is excited to share the love for the babies born in Airdrie in 2022.
Just like Jimmy wants to find the perfect place for his treehouse, Genesis Land is creating inspired communities in Airdrie and we are so happy to partner with them on this annual project. We hope this becomes a treasured keepsake for your family.
SHERRY SHAW-FROGGATT Publisher, airdrielifeGenesis Land is delighted to share with you another Baby Book to add to your collection.
Last year, “Baby Bunny Boing and the Welcome Party” brought smiles to your faces. This year we are pleased to introduce you to another inspiring book “Jimmy and the Treehouse”. A story about friendship, collaboration, and most of all, Genesis Land’s core value, the power of creating, together.
Genesis Land, once again collaborated with our local writer Leonor Henriquez, author of several children’s books, and talented artist and illustrator Mackenzie Cox, born and raised in Airdrie.

Remembering Noah
Our little light, Noah, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in his sleep on December 14, 2022 at the age of 3 months. Noah was a ray of hope to his mom, his dad, and the rest of his family. He showed us that a life does not have to be long to be meaningful, but that it’s all about the people we love and the people that love us back. Noah was our shooting star, spreading so much light in such a short amount of time. He brought us joy in so many perfect and unimaginable ways. We all adored his smile, laugh, and beautiful soul, and we will forever cherish the memories of our beloved little boy.
Lynsi Cheyanne Wipf and Zach Wickson
It’s our hope that families will gather for storytime and read this book to their children. In this way, we are bringing people together, which is at the heart of Genesis Land’s guiding principle:
To Enrich Lives Through Inspired Homes and Communities.
