IF YOU WERE HERE FOR (DECAF) TEA.

Yes, I'm still drinking decaf!  But I don't mind if yours is caffeinated :)

*  The 5 day holiday is finally here!  I am thrilled that Phillip will be home with us for FIVE WHOLE DAYS IN A ROW!  We sure do miss him when he's at work all day.

*  SWEAT.  Let me tell you, I have never done this much sweating in my whole life!  What's up with that?!  I have to change my shirt a few times every day just to feel dry and comfortable.  Perhaps my pregnancy pounds are coming out via my pores?!  INSHALLAH! 

*  Things we do often as of last week:  dishes, laundry, sterilizing, repeat.  Things we no longer do often as of last week:  sleep, shower, blog, watch tv.......

*  It seems like a never-ending Valentine's Day at this house.  Our flat has been filled with pretty flowers and tasty chocolates since we arrived home from the hospital!  In fact, it's almost as though our gift-givers are in communication because when one bouquet of flowers begins to die, the next bouquet arrives!  

*  American Idol.  TWO THOUGHTS.  One - Nicki Minaj is ANNOYING.  Two - if Phil and I keep practicing our singing non-stop, we are bound to be top contenders on the next season!  You'll be happy to hear that we've expanded our repertoire of go-to songs to include the itsy-bitsy spider, head and shoulders, and our own rendition of "Glory, Glory Hallelujah".  The latter is a true GEM.   

*  My doctor's appointment on Thursday went well.  After they removed the BA-ZILLION bandages from my incision site (which felt AWESOME), we found out that all is healing as it should be!  I'm restricted to light walking for the time being (which turns out to be all I can handle as I discovered on our big walk from the parking lot to the hospital entrance).  HA!  If you know us at all, you know that Phil and I are SUPER-SPEEDY walkers.  We walk faster than many people jog.  You can imagine how awkward it looks now with me trying to keep up and Phil trying to slow down.

*   Today is Oscar's birthday!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY OSCAR BOSCAR!!!!  Your present will arrive this summer - in the form of something really adorable and fantastic!

*  Emily is an INCREDIBLE PHOTOGRAPHER!  This afternoon we did a newborn photo shoot and I can't wait to post some of the photos on the blog.  She created some real keepsakes today.  WE LOVE YOU GEM!  THANK YOU FOR CAPTURING THE MANY FACES OF ELEANOR DOUGLAS! XOXO

HOORAY for blogging!  Right now Nory is cozy in Phil's/Grandma's arms (they are taking turns!) but you never know when the Nornado could appear!  (Just teasing my girl - you were such a team player during today's shoot.  WE LOVE YOU!) 

Sending lots of love your way, Canada!

XOXO
