Back to Work

Well, my vacation is over and it's back to the grind. I had a very relaxing vacation. I needed it. I've had some bad sciatic pain lately and I needed to rest. I'm feeling better but I know it will start bothering me again as soon as I'm back on my feet all day. But I'm very thankful that I'm not as sick this time. That has been a blessing.

Martina's birthday was lots of fun!! She got lots of great gifts and she is enjoying every one of them. Here are some pics:

We had a great time at Zooz on Saturday and Martina was very excited to see all the animals. She even was able to feed a giraffe!! The hippos are her favorite and she can't get enough of the goats. For the $50 the season passes cost, it is more than worth it. I would recommend it to anyone with little kids. It's really a great place!

The Fort Erie Lions put on a carnival on the May 24 weekend and so we went to that and Martina (my little daredevil) loved the rides. The higher they went, the faster they went, and the more she was jerked around, the more she squealed and loved it. She went 2 days in a row and was very sad to find out that they would be leaving after the weekend.

Well, that's about all that has been going on. Of course the weather is turning nicer as my vacation comes to an end. Same thing last year. Next year I'll have lots of time off to enjoy the nice weather. Hope everyone is well.

I know I haven't posted in a few weeks but it has been crazy!!! We had Bob's 30th birthday party this weekend and it went really well. I got Phantom of the Opera tickets for him and I and he was very excited to get that.

I've been feeling okay. Some days are rougher than others. Morning sickness does not seem to be as bad as with Martina but that could be because I am taking my vitamins at bedtime instead of in the morning. When I take them in the morning (with or without food) I seem to get sick. So at night I have more of a chance of benefitting from them. I have an information night with the midwives on Monday and then I'll have my regular appts. starting after that.

Martina is doing great!! She will be 3 on the 13th and she is very excited about her birthday but more so about the fact that Zooz will be open when it is her birthday. She loves it there. We are getting season passes again so we will always have something to do in the summer.

I'll try to post more often but it gets hard as the nights for me are shorter because I'm usually in bed the same time as Martina!
