Day 3 Half Rome /Boarding Ship



I have never been one to take my workout gear on vacation but knowing that I was going to be eating pasta, pizza and yummy desserts forced me to pack it up for this trip. I also realized that I don’t feel well if I don’t workout. I have come to far with this whole running thing to just stop! So today, we woke up, got our running shoes on and went to a park right across from our hotel. It was amazing. Todd and I ran 1 mile and walked a total of 3 miles all over the park, ending up back at the hotel for breakfast. A quick breakfast and we all had to shower and pack up.

Some how I managed to forget my camera charger. I remembered everything else, but I forgot the charger! So Todd decided that we would ask the front desk where a camera shop was… want to guess how that went? Many people speak English but today, no one understood what we needed. We decided to spend our last 30 minutes walking the streets of Rome trying to find a camera charger. We did not have any luck finding one but we did get some yummy gelato.

At 12:30 we loaded a van for a 50-minute ride to the port. Let me just say, I honestly didn’t think we were going to make it! This driver was CRAZY! I mean crazy! We did make it though and getting on the boat was a breeze! We got on the boat and into our rooms in 25 minutes and we had our luggage within 45. It was great. Our room, AH-MAZING! It is actually bigger than our room was in Rome and it has a great balcony, huge bathroom that includes a bathtub and great storage space. I’m in love with this room. Let me also mention that we are located on level 12, which is a few steps from the pool, fitness and spa! There is also a butler on the floor that brings us snacks at teatime! I want to just hang out in our room! This has been such a treat and a great way to celebrate 5 years together. Ken actually told them it was our honeymoon, so we got a cake delivered to our room! Todd and I checked out the boat and all it had to offered and then spent time unpacking and called it a night early.
Another great day!

All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come? - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

We all need friends

I remember almost a year ago when a good friend of mine invited me to a lunch group, Friday's at noon. At that time in my life I needed it! I needed to get out and meet new friends, other ladies with children about the same age, going through the same thing. This was a life saver for me. I am not a very outgoing person and it's hard to make friends when you don't have a full time job. Long story made short.... I made some GREAT friends in that group. As all good things to do though, things changed, people moved on and life became a little crazy for all of us. So the lunch group is starting up again and even though some people have left, we have some new faces to get to know! Wednesday a couple of us went out for a ladies night out and it was great! Two new people for me to get to know and I feel like I have made two new life long friends. It's so refreshing to just have a night out with the ladies and yes, we may spend the whole night talking about our babies and what t...

First trip to the ER

Image
Yesterday was a day of firsts! First time to try to potty training and first trip to the ER. Here is how we ended up there..... He woke up feeling good and we had a nice start to potty training! He didn't eat a lot of breakfast but some days he does and others he doesn't so I didn't think much about it. When lunch time rolled around he still didn't eat. He then became very cranky and uninterested in the potty thing so I let my dad take him up for his nap. He normally goes down pretty easy but today he didn't. He said that his tummy hurt and couldn't get comfortable. He finally fell asleep but didn't stay asleep long. He moved all around and cried out a couple times then finally woke up. He was NOT himself. He cried and wanted to be held. Then all of a sudden he would be fine. Then minutes later he would say his tummy hurt, then drop to his knees and cry and move around trying to get comfortable. It was so sad. My parents wanted him to spend the night si...
