There's a new baby on the way...


The cat's finally out of the bag. Today we got to see our newest addition on ultrasound. Yep, at almost 13 weeks along, this little one is scheduled to debut sometime towards the end of May, give or take a week or two. We are all thrilled. We've just told the kids and I know they will both make a great big brother and sister. So far these 13 weeks have been uneventful, although tiring. Thankfully Meghan is in school all day and Nathan takes a substantial nap allowing me to nap as well. Otherwise the time is flying by and we are all anticipating the holidays with friends and family. Here is a pic from the ultrasound.

Pumpkins and Hay

While my mom was visiting we went to the pumpkin farm and that included animals, hayrides and of course a lot of pumpkins. The kids had a blast.

Akumal and Tulum Mexico

Finally back! We have been without a computer for the last 6 weeks! Now I am back and ready to catch up. Most recently we spent a week in Tulum and Akumal Mexico, just south of Cancun. We spent the first day in Cancun before deciding to head south to check out the Mayan Riviera. I was there 20 years ago and while there is a lot of 'ecotourism' places that were not there 20 years ago, the beaches by and large remain unchanged.













We checked out the ruins at Tulum which were very hot and the kids were not too thrilled with it all, but Coba graced us with a pouring down rainshower. The kids were horrified at first... We're getting soaked, but Michael and I just started to laugh about it all and they ended up having a great time. Meghan climbed the big tower in the middle of the rain.
OK, I have more pictures but I can't seem to find the time or energy to get them up at this moment, so I'm posting this... so as to end the lack of posts on my BLOG. When I get more time, I'll post some more.
