This was a good week. Crazy, but good!!
We spent new years eve at the beach. It was very rainy there. We went to Ripleys Believe It Or Not. The kids weren't scared, even when I thought they would be. After Ripleys, we went to Moe's for dinner. I had the WORST chicken burger ever. I guess thats what I get for ordering CHICKEN at a seafood resturant. They didn't charge me for it though. We went back to our hotel room and fell asleep at 10:00 pm. Pam and I both woke up at about 15 after midnight to some fireworks, but only stayed awake for like 2 seconds. We decided that we would stay an extra night. It was pretty fun. We went to the outlet mall and I got the baby some cute clothes. We had lunch at the casino...SO YUMMY!!!
Monday we had a little going away dinner for the kids and I. My sisters and one of my brothers, as well as my parents, met up at Burger King. The kids played in the play equipment and we said our goodbyes. We already miss all our family so much!!!
Tuesday was a VERY hectic day. We had to be to the airport around 5:00 am. Our flight left at 6:30 am. When we were getting on the plane Gabe cried for my mom. Broke our hearts!! The flight attendants were AMAZING!! They helped out so much. The brought the kids all the snacks they could eat and gave them all the juice they could drink. It was a wonderful flight. We had 2 stops before our final stop here in El Paso. Everytime we stoped Gabe would say "We going to Nana's now?" I think he finally figured out that we were not going to Nana's when we finally got home. It has been VERY nice to be home. I love my family, but I missed my house. Now I have a few days of cleaning to do. I guess there was a big sand storm while I was gone, so I have about a foot of dirt in each of my doors and all over the window sills.
I had an appointment yesterday with my midwife. Faith's heart sounds good, she is just measuring 3 weeks further along now!! Big baby I guess!! I have to get a maternity belt next week to help my back. I also have to go in and get the wonderful Glucose test done!!! Oh Joy!
Anyway, we are home safe and sound and are taking it easy the next week. Working on getting the kids back on their schedules. Which isn't the easiest. Hope all is well with everybody and I will post again next week.
