Tan Lines Soon To Fade

Summer is coming to an end up here faster than I ever thought.
On our way back from Windsor this past weekend we noticed that the leaves are starting to change. I can't believe it. How time flies.

So as the saying goes, "New Job, New house, New Baby"... well I just completed that once again because this time I got a job that I'll keep. I was hired today at "The Shoreline Beacon". Our newspaper in town. I'll be their new Graphic Designer. I'm not overly excited about going back to work, but I need to have 600 hours worked for me to qualify for maternity leave so I had to find something before I started to show. And if any of you remember the size I was last time, I couldn't wait too long.
I suppose the best part is, is that I could walk there from here if I wanted. It's less than a 3 minute car drive. And it's a stones throw away from Adam's Day Care.
I start this Thursday.

I am officially 6 weeks pregnant. And my tentative due date is April 11th. My morning sickness is getting less worse, but I'm still really tired. So, I'm going to end this blog so I can go have a nap. I only get 2 naps until I have to go back to work so I better take advantage.

We will be coming to Windsor for Thanksgiving weekend for a wedding, and we'll try and visit everyone then. So hopefully someone is having Thanksgiving so we can see ya'll. Plus, I need to eat.... for 2.... so I get the extra piece of pie.

We're Thrilled!

Okay, so by now you've heard the news! Yes, we're going to have another baby.
Due sometime in April, however I was so excited at my appointment yesterday that I totally forgot to ask the doctor my due date. I calculated it on April 11, 2008.
We are thanking our lucky stars that we won't have to worry about a snow storm to rush to the hospital through. Hopefully. We do however have a 30 minute drive to the hospital when it's time.

I'm also very excited that I won't be a huge blimp for Cortney's wedding! The only thing I'll have to worry about is leaky nipples in my beautiful dress...haha.
Adam is also excited lifting my shirt every chance he gets to say hi to the "grape". I told him that it's the size of a grape right now, and that's all he remembers. He says he wants a brother and a sister. Wouldn't that be fun! Twins! OH GOD!

Because I'm pregnant, when I went to the hospital (see my earlier post about doctor shortages) the super nice doctor who saw me took me, Jay and Adam on as patients. His name of all things is DR. DYKE! His wife is also a doctor. What a name though. He's very young, like we're talking not even 35.

So that's all the news about that. I'm only 5 weeks pregnant. Yes I told everyone before the "3 month" standard, but how could I keep that a secret? Too exciting.

See you all soon!

Mich, Jay and Adam and ?

My eyes are half way shut!

We have been having some of the most amazing weather I can imagine. Today again was 82 hot and no humidity at all. So we went to the beach in Southampton in the dunes and baked our buns off. We ate the famous "Gerry's Fries" for lunch, and worked it off playing around in the water. I'll have some more photos to post soon, some from a roll of film that is pretty old, so it's going to be a suprise. Hope it's clean.
Jay and I keep haing contests to see who's darker, he's winning, but only by a bit. Some of the new pics getting developed to disk will proudly display Adam's tan lines. He has the whitest butt ever.

Tina's coming up next week and we're going to do a bunch of stuff with Adam and Emma. There is a children's amusement park in Owen Sound "Story Book Park" and it's all children's rides and mini sized water slides. The best is that if you are under 163 inches you can ride. Which means 5 FOOT 3. So both Tina and I can ride the children's rides with them! Yippee!

I'm still looking for a good job, I've been applying to so many, somethings got to come up soon. If not, well, I have a very important role keeping the sand off the floors when I come home from the beach.

My search for a family doctor has been put to rest. Flat out, there are no family physicians in the area or even surrounding area taking patients. There are no walk in clinics. People in Port Elgin and Southampton go to the Southampton Emergency Dept. I've never been, but people say you'll never wait for more than 2.5 hours. Not bad. There is what they call an "orphan clinic" in Kincardine that has 10 doctors working out of, and people who don't have a family doctor can go there. Much like Windsor clinics, but with lots more docs. Once a doctor sees you at the clinic, you can then call that office and schedule an appointment. But they book from a month to two months ahead. You can't just call and think you'll get an appointmtne that week.

So, well, this was much longer than I planned. I'm pooped and very sunburnt.

Miss you all!
Well except the O'Gorman's cause they're always here... LOL
