Our surprise after the vacation

So I was a little sick while we were in California, almost threw up on the plane a few times, and the guy beside me kept tapping his foot which just made me more sick. We got back and Addy and G-pa met us at the airport and she ran into our arms, it was wonderful to see her. So Friday a little sick again so we decided to investigate this round of sickness and found out that we are going to have another baby!

We had our first ultrasound today since we had no clue how pregnant we are. We are 8 weeks and 1 day along. The baby looks great, strong heartbeat. Our due date is Jan 8th but we are scheduling the c-section for the last week of December. We will keep you updated!

Legos galore at the Lego store

The Ocean

CA continued....

So we went to In and Out burger Sunday night. The menu is great, it consists of a double burger, cheeseburger, or hamburger, would you like it in a combo, OK. It is so simple and good. We ate outside which is something I miss from Florida. Eric showed us the beaches, told us what houses cost around here which are really expensive, and we saw how impossible it is to park by the beach area. People will buy the lot beside them for an insane amount just to have parking, crazy.
Yesterday we went out for breakfast before Kris had to go to his conferences. I spent the day by the pool reading "Wanted Extreme Christians" by Steve Hill. We have had the book for years and I have never read it. It is excellent, it is definitely a reread. So I was so into the book that the hours flew by and I am a little red today from the sun. So when Kris got back we went to Disney Downtown with Eric. We ate at an Italian pizzeria and shopped a little. I got Addy a Minnie Mouse shirt and my little cousin a Lego mug with his name on it for his b-day. I don't know what we are doing tonight, maybe go to Del Taco which we have been told is a must or El Pollo Loco. Then tomorrow we will visit the beach and just sight see. Then early on Thursday we have to be at the airport - the John Wayne Airport, then back to Indy. I can't wait to see my baby. Next year this conference will be in DC.

Leaving Adyson

This is Adyson playing with G-pa at the airport yesterday before we went thru security. She loves phones of anykind.

So this is the first time we have ever left Adyson. I don't count taking her to school because I'm teaching on the other hallway from her. And we have only went out twice since she was born and Kris's parents watched her at our house when she was almost asleep so we didn't miss any time with her. So I cried a week before, I teared up twice before we got to the airport, and then cried cried when I said goodbye and went thru security, the lady in security asked if I was ok and Kris had to answer for me.

Adyson on the other hand was distracted by someone taking their dog in a carry-on bag so she didn't notice us leaving which was better for me b/c it would have been worse for me if she started crying. I am better now and Kris's parents have already sent two pictures of her helping with dinner and playing in Nana's makeup, so I know she is fine.

California

So Kris has a conference in CA so we decided to make it a mini vacation. We flew out of Indy to Denver yesterday, had a two hour lay over, grabbed a bite to eat, and then on to Orange County. The airport was easy to maneuver, grabbed our bags, rental car (new Pontiac G6), and jumped on the highway. We were warned about how Californians drive and they were right, it was like we were in a race :-)

We arrived at our hotel, smelled the most beautiful flowers that are everywhere, admired these huge purple trees, and watched the Disney fireworks at 9:30 (12:30 our normal time) from our balcony and went to bed. We got up this morning at 6, cruised around to find a place to eat. Since Kris had to get to his conference and it needed to be a little fast, we decided on Carl Jr's/Green Burrito, which is the west's version of Hardee's/Red Burrito. It is pretty much the same except they put guacamole on some of their burgers and the ham is really thick for the breakfast sandwiches. We dropped by the Big K to grab some snacks for the hotel and Kris walked to his conference b/c we can also see the conference center from our balcony too. I sat by the pool to get some much needed sun, read a book, put my feet in the pool, walked around, and I may take a nap before Kris gets back at 4. We are going to out to eat with a friend from Indy that use to live here and he may take us to the beach, I'm looking forward to it.

The pictures are of course of our room. We will take many more and post them later.
