I knew that it would most likely result in a bit of a cranky baby later in the afternoon, but that it would mean that he would go down at bedtime earlier than usual and that we&#8217;d be able to have our meeting without any distractions or meltdowns.<\/p>\n<p>And&#8230;.it worked perfectly as planned.  Siah was a bear by 4:00pm, but promptly fell asleep at 6:50pm&#8230;..early, I know!  The meeting was scheduled for 7pm, and I had no sitter for Siah.  The other kids were out in Abbotsford with my grandparents, and we were in Vancouver.<\/p>\n<p>So I figured that we&#8217;d have an early start to today, but I didn&#8217;t count on it being quite that early.<\/p>\n<p>So, I&#8217;m sitting here snuggling with a very large cup of extra strong coffee&#8230;my mother-in-law uses espresso for her drip machine&#8230;.WOW!  But, I have to say that I am a little nervous about the drive home.  Typically after two full days of work back to back, the hour&#8217;s drive home on Wednesday night usually takes some effort as I want to fall asleep &#8211; I think that I might even need to stop and get a Starbucks before I head out.  Yuuummmmmmm!<\/p>\n<p>We had a good weekend and I have some pics that I hoped to get up yesterday but I was CRAZEE busy and well, it just didn&#8217;t work out.  Maybe today???<\/p>\n<p>I think that Sunday was the back breaker as far as me feeling sick, and I&#8217;m definately on the upswing as far as feeling better goes.  Not that I feel awesome, and the snot&#8230;..OH MY GOODNESS the snot is amazing&#8230;&#8230;but I&#8217;m not still wondering if it&#8217;s turned into strep and if I&#8217;m starting to get an ear infection.<\/p>\n<p>I do feel so bad for Xandra.  She came into our room early Monday morning cryng about how bad her throat felt, and unfortunately I knew just how ad she was feeling.<\/p>\n<p>This has been just so bizarre as we are almost never sick and I am SO READY for it to all be gone.  <\/p>\n<p>Well, I should probably at least start getting ready for the day, no?<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to all for your thoughts and well wishes.  We so appreciate everyone who thinks of us and remembers with us.<\/p>\n<p><em>ps.  I did 25 minutes on my Eliptical Machine on Monday night and now I can&#8217;t walk&#8230;.it&#8217;s pretty funny.  I&#8217;m thinking that it&#8217;s going to be even funnier when I try to get back on the sucker tonight.<br \/>\n <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know tht 7:40am is not technically early, but&#8230;.I&#8217;ve been awake since 5:45am, and as far as I&#8217;m concerned&#8230;.thats freaky early.
