Bitterness is overwhelming me. I'm trying to be positive and sympathetic. I'm hoping things get back to normal soon. 

We had a fantastic weekend. Darren and I spent most of Saturday just the two of us. Marlyssa hung out with Maria for the afternoon and my parents took her for the evening. It was the first time in a month we were able tore ally talk and relax. Darren has been working long hours and most weekends. The paycheque is good but it can be a slight strain on us. 

We had a yummy lunch at Diner Deluxe, then he was able to use most of his gift card at MEC. In the evening we scooted over to Eric & Nat's for a going away bash.  We met some pretty cool people on top of having a great time with existing friends.

Tonight is a first with Maria. She fell off the slide at Leah today. She was complaining about her arm and head. The side of her head was pretty banged up. We took her to emergency to make sure she is okay. Darren and Maria are in the X-ray room as we speak. I think everything will be okay but I will sleep better knowing. 

She has strength of a bear! 

So she has a fractured clavicle bone on her left side. Poor thing.  Doctor wasn't too worried about the healing process.

I was reading over some old blogs, mainly looking for information about Dr. Appointments when I was pregnant with Maria, I couldn't believe how often I wrote! I thinking I should get back into the habit. It's nice to ave a place to get things off your chest that you would normally keep in check. 

So I'm almost 24 weeks pregnant with number two. So, far so good. I'm feeling tired and I think a little more impatient with things. I'm starting to show much more in the last three weeks and feeling the babe kick/push. 

I've been going to prenatal yoga, which I am loving by the way. It's interesting to see other women either no as far along or more far along and see how different everyone carries. I think I the one showing the least and there is a one that is around 13 weeks that us showing more than me. With Maria I was like the too. 

We aren't finding out what the sex is. How often. Do you get a surprise in life, especially with the technology of today? 

I've  been finding it a little frustrating having Maria's babysitter pregnant and she LOVES to talk about everything to do with pregnancy. I like to keep to myself. Maybe talk about it the odd time. I don't like to make a big deal over things. Leah is due mid July. 

Andrea is due any day!! She's had a tough time this time around. I think it's a girl! But we will wait and see! I'm in the process of planning a baby shower for her and the babe. 

Found out a couple of weeks ago my co-worker is expecting too (not planned)Due in Jan. I'm trying to stay positive about this but drama follows her and I just don't want to hear about the drama that could come!  Uncle Greg had to laugh, he was very happy that I'm not a very dramatic person and no really demanding, having a few women in the office that are is enough. 

Look how cute they are. The top one is Darren in the hospital & the bottom one is Maria a month or so old. You can tell they are related ;) 

Ultra sound around 12 weeks

We had a good trip to BC. We ended up going the south route. It was a very beautiful drive with a lot of wildlife on the road.

We stopped in Cranbrook for the first night. I don't recommend the Econolodge. If we paid $20 less per night it would have been okay. Pair thin walls and floor/ceilings. Not updated at all.

We stopped for lunch in Castlegard, i can't remember the diners name but the food and atmosphere was good.

We visited Davidson farm, hiked around Knox mountain and enjoyed swimming in Leanne&Reno's pool.

This week we celebrated Maria's 2nd birthday. Time flies!

I sometimes think about how different our life is now. It was so easy to go and do something at the last moment or stay out late. Now I feel I want to come hone afterwork and go to bed early... pretty boring.

Darren & I are in the Brooks dragon boat races. Its been pretty fun. I expected the arms to hurt but not the butt. Those benches dig in more than you want to admit.

Im soo tired, so going to go to sleep. Until next time
