Life as we know it

So this is one interesting week might I say....we are heading to California on Thursday and are so super excited!!  We have a lot of big plans for out there.  We are planning on going to Sea World, Lego Land, the beach, and the San Diego Zoo.  Yikes!!  What are we thinking?  Rob and I are gonna be wiped out.  But I cannot wait!  We also have an adult date night planned for Saturday night with Jess and Chip.  My mom and dad are going to SD as well so they said they'd watch the kiddos Saturday night so that we can go on our dinner date.  I'm really excited!!

Sunday afternoon we are also going to go to Del Mar racetrack!  It's opening weekend for which Jess tells me the whole town of SD shuts down and goes....which explains why there are NO HOTEL ROOMS in San Diego this weekend!  But anyhow, it'll be so much fun.  It's family fun day there as well so there will be plenty for the kids to do. 

The boys have never flown before so I'm pretty nervous about that.  For one, I don't care for flying at all!  I have flown a bunch so I should be used to it, but I just don't like it.  But whatever, there are some places you just have to fly to.  So hopefully the kids will behave on the flight!

So back to life....Rob bought a canoe to take out into the creek in our backyard and he has been loving it!  Me, him and Camryn took a little trip on it Sunday morning and it was so much fun!  It was very relaxing and peaceful.  The water is very shallow out there, like 3-6 feet so I feel pretty safe.  Plus we all have our life jackets.  So yesterday he took the boys for their maiden voyage and they loved it.  They were so good just sitting in the canoe and splashing their hands in the water.  I wasn't sure that it would get much use but so far Rob has been loving it! 

Last night Camryn decided she didn't want to sleep for some reason.  She woke up kinda whining around 12:15 and literally didn't stop screaming til about 3:00 a.m.  It was craziness!  She has never done anything like that.  I rocked her, held her, sang to her, tried to feed her, tried to play, sit her up, gave her tylenol, bounced her....and nothing at all worked.  I think she ended up just kinda passing out after about 3 hours of crying and screaming.  It's so hard when you feel as parents like something is wrong with your baby but you cannot figure it out.  She didn't have fever or any symptoms so that was the craziest part.  It was like she was just screaming for no apparent reason :(  Poor baby.  But she finally fell asleep and is just now waking up and it's 9:00 a.m. 

I am still home today b/c the company I work for got bought out yesterday which more than likely means I'm out of a job.  Poop!!  I really enjoy what I do and hope that something will come around.  We are supposed to find out today at 5:00 exactly what our fate is.  Whatever....everything will work out.  I'm kinda bummed, but hey, life is fabulous!!!   My marriage is great, kids are healthy and great, and I love my life.  So if I lose my job, it's ok!

Anyway, hope you all have a great day!!
