I am packing and heading out. My dh is on vaction this week and I am going to Virginia to visit my father. I do not remember if I had mentioned, he started a new job in DC in December, and commutes home to Albany on the weekends. He will be in Albany as usual this weekend, but as he is coming up we are heading to visit my mother-in-law first. She lives in a Philly\/Trenton suburb in PA. Then Gorbulas and I will head down to Virginia for a few days and see him on Monday.
\nThe highlight of my trip is I will get to meet Peony and Hambet, Davey, his Mommy and Daddy and Kathy the Carmelite this week. Not only that, but will get to call them by their real names.
\nIn other news, yesterday I had my first ultrasound. I was having some sharp pains on my side, so the midwife was concerned I had a tubal. Deo Gratias, the little bugger is where he (or maybe a she, but he kept moving around and made it hard to get a heart rate, so it’s probably a he) is supposed to be. These events bring out the worst of my Italian neurotic genes. I feel so out of control when it comes to my little unborn babies I guess because I cannot see that they are A-OK when things seem off. If it were just me, I could care less, and with my kids that are out already, I can see and communicate with them.
\nYesteday was Fastolph’s 5th Birthday (Thank You Peony). I tell ya, that little guy has come a long way. Although he is the one who has broken windows, has been saved just in the nick of time while trying to jump over the side of balconies, tries to pick up teenage girls, used to escape the house and run in the middle of the street, calls “da poh-weece” on his brother, pulls worms out and names them, he is just a cutey pie when he wants to be. My mother made him a special birthday dinner of hot dogs, french fries, salad, corn on the cob and cupcakes. He was quite thrilled, even though when she asked him what he would like for dinner he replied “egg, strawberries and cream”.
\nWell, that’s all for now. See ya when I come back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
