Strange place to take a nap.

Last week Simon posted a less than flatering photo of me on his blog. After searching through my archieves i found a good shot of Simon for some fun payback.
Simon must be recovering from a hard days work.

St Patty's day visit

Met up with Normy friday night after work for some St. Patty's day fun. First stop Raptors game. We didn't have tickets so we talked to the scalpers. Normy wheeled and dealed and next thing you know we had courtside tickets. An extra bonus was they were playing the Milwaukee Bucks. $450 tickets for $85! It was a great game and cool to be so close. After the game we hit the steamwislte brewerey for many a beer. We then finished the night in China town for some late night eats. In the morning we had lunch at the St Lawrence Market.

I couldn't believe my eyes!!!

When I saw Claire walk in our apartment last Wednesday night!!!

It was 8:15 and Pete walked through the door. I said "Hello" and he smiled. He then turned around at the door that was opening up. I thought "Oh great he'd brought a work friend home and I look like crap". Little did I know that it would be one of my bestest friends who I hadn't seen in 2 and a half years walk through that door! I was so stunned! I couldn't believe it! They had been planning this for over a week. Claire is back from her long journey in Lusaka, Zambia. Toronto was her first stop then on to Halifax for a job interview on Saturday. Her Mom is the only other person to know she was coming back so she is probably on her way or already has made her surprise to all! :) It was so great to catch up with her! :) Good times, good shopping and good laughter! :) I missed ya Claire! Here are some pics with some goodies Claire gave Pete and I for a wedding present and a baby mobile that I just love!

Baby Slipp at 19 weeks

Here is a pic of the babe. We went last night for the ultrasound and all looks good.
My appointment was for 6:30 and got in at about 6:15. Pete had to stay in the waiting room until all the inspection was done and then they call him in (like they did at week 10) this only took about 15 minutes last ultrasound. As soon as the ultrasound thingy touched my belly the technician says "Oh no, this isn't good" in a very concerned voice. She didn't say anything to me for a few minutes as she looked at her screen. I was like "What the hell?" and finally she said the computer froze and she needed to shut the whole system down and re-boot. "That's it" I said. Coulda told me that instead of "Oh, no this isn't good". What's a 'mom to be' to think?! Jeez!
So while this is going on (20 minutes for the system to re-boot and then another 20 for her to look at all she needs to look at) Pete has no idea why it's taking so long and she finally calls him in to have a look at the baby at 7:10. He tells me he was quite worried...I think this is only the beginning of worrying! :) I got to see the baby yawn(so cute!) and also had a chance to see the gender-We chose not to find out the gender as so many Upper Canadians seem to do. Oh yeah...we're not Upper Canadians! ;)
