Day 4- Sicily (Messina, Italy)



5:00am: Wake up to the sun starting to come u- Todd was actually more awake than I was.
5:45am: Todd and I walked around the very empty walking track.
6:00am: I ran a mile on the treadmill and Todd walked 2.4 miles. I also did a few leg workouts and arm workouts with the machines.
7:15am: we hit the hot tub and watched us sail past a volcano!
9:00am: sat down for breakfast with Nancy and Ken
10:30am: off the boat and on the way to a very cute little village type area.
Lots of fun, beautiful sights and the best pizza. It was great. We finished it off with some chocolate mouse and coconut gelato. Loving the gelato. Once back on the boat, Todd and I hit the gym again, I did 10 minutes on the bike followed by 20 on the elliptical. Todd did 30 on the elliptical! GO TODD! I am now lying in our room, truly enjoying the dim light and the stillness. I love that I can just take time out and sit here. Later…. Dinner!

***Dessert: flash fried strawberries with a special sauce that included balsamic vinegar, covered a vanilla ice cream filled crepe! It was fabulous!***

***I cried talking to my baby tonight! I really miss them! It is harder being away from them than I thought it would be.***

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...
