Life back to normal

Wow, I feel like our trip home was months ago already... I keep consoling myself with the fact that it isn't long until Hannah is here.

But we have been having fun times since getting back, babies to hold and friends to catch up with.

Sunday 21st May we had our farewell BBQ for Greg and Barb, Greg is leaving us for the easy life with Ranger Lake Bible Camp;-) and Barb is now a full time Mum. It was such a good time to hang out and socialise with the rest of the staff and their families. Unfortunately I wasn't feeling that great due to a little bit of residue jet lag and the fact that my sinus' were playing up again.

Tuesday 23rd May we were invited over to Greg & Jess' house for dinner, and boy was it a good dinner, Jess is a GREAT cook. And Allison and Ryan happily let us pass Jared round, he is such a good baby. I find it adorable how Annika, who is such a baby herself still, was so fascinated by Jared, and loved playing in his car seat. Annika was totally on a roll that night, we spent most of the night making fish faces at each other, it was great. And Leif couldn't get enough of our digital camera, he loved watching the tiny screen on the back, it was so much fun just playing with them.

Thursday arrived and, SHOCK HORROR, my sinus issues had just gotten worse, no sleep Wednesday night had left me feeling completely exhausted, so I had Thursday and Friday off work. Thankfully I had been to the Dr on Wednesday so I do have antibiotics, but I am feeling a tad frustrated with this stupid continuing sinus thing... don't get me started, I am so sick of it!

Friday night I did have a good chat with Tanya, which was SO good, because I had really missed her lots, so it was great to just have some time with her. And I watched a some of the 4th Harry Potter movie before I left in need of my bed and medication.

The weekend was fairly relaxed, it kinda had to be due to the fact that I felt like poo, but I went to Allison and Jared's shower with Diane, then we went to Wes and Dianes in the evening to show them our holiday pictures and play with the boys. Then Sunday was church, Fuddruckers with William and Lisa, then lazy afternoon and evening watching TV and movies. So a good weekend, when I could actually breath.

We got some VERY exciting news this weekend from Joanna (L's cousin) that she and Kelly got married, so YAY, and congratulations to them! We're really excited for them.

Oh, and just so you know, I am currently reading a good series of books by Robert J0rdan called The Wheel of Time. I'd definately recommend them, but they are long books so be warned! And I am eagerly awaiting the new 2nd Keane album, which should be out soon, because the 1st single from this album is out in the UK and is the best I have heard from them yet... and that is saying something, they are a truly great band!

A new Keane album? I can't wait. I was just looking around to see if they had another album. When's it out?
