our wonderful trip

We had an absolutely fabulous time away. As much as we love spending time together as a family it's also really nice to have time for just Stan and I. I think sometimes we forget what it's like to just be together and have adult conversation, especially since we only had just over a year of marriage before Kirby was born and most of that year I was pregnant--which let's face it makes women a little off from their 'normal' selves. So we had 2 full days of adult time! Such a blessing.

Almost as soon as we arrived in KM (our Province capital) we took off for the hospital. Baby Pittman #3 is very healthy and almost for sure a boy. It was an interesting time at the doctor--more to come of that in the next post--but we were so thankful to get a thorough check up. We did a little shopping that night and then went to a newish restaurant that was pretty good and we got to eat some semi-decent Texmex. Then back to the hotel to hang out and watch some movies.

The next day we got up, ate our western breakfast (mmmmm) and then on to a Chicago Coffee for drinks and Internet. We saw some friends there and got to chat a little. We had lunch and spent the afternoon and evening with friends and had a great time laughing and sharing stories. Sadly I was so exhausted by the time we got back to our hotel that I fell asleep and didn't get to enjoy the movie that night. The downfall of the pregnant woman.

Sunday morning we finished up the shopping (I guess I should note that all this shopping was buying American food stuff to bring home. Seriously a lot of it.) and ate Pizza Hut for lunch. We caught a 1:00 bus back home and got here in time for dinner. I know it doesn't sound exciting but it was fun. We were able to take our time, do whatever we felt like and not have to worry about nap time or bed time--other than for me. :)

The boys had a fabulous time with our friends. It was a serious blessing to not have to worry about them at all. Kirby even had a little stomach bug starting Saturday morning with throwing up (1 time) and the big D (countless times) and they didn't even skip a beat. Kirby felt fine, other having to run to the bathroom often, so they still got to paint, play outside and do all the other fun things our friends had planned.

Fun times for all!
