I break stuff...

...including promises. I'm way behind on posting pics of Mel and the baby, like I said I would. So here are a couple:
Mel and Jacob


Proud Parents


Family shot


Uncle Matt


Beautiful Baby

I have a TON of pictures of the baby. I'll try to post a few in the next couple of weeks. Yes...I'm giving myself some time. :) They've all been home for a couple of weeks now and everyone is doing fine. Happy and healthy! As Jill said yesterday, "Is it possible he's gotten cuter?" The answer: YES! He's adorable!

Tomorrow we're leaving for our annual Mother/Daughter Trip. Leaving on a jet plane to Jamaica! Shelley and Karola came down on Friday to spend some time with us, er...the baby, before the trip. Shelley and I've had so much fun! Well, not according to her, but... We went to the movies and out drinking on Saturday, Six Flags on Sunday, and walking/workout yesterday. I don't know what the two of us were thinking going to Six Flags. I had 2 free tickets so we were only going to go for a couple of hours. Ended up staying the whole day. We rode almost every ride and the park wasn't too crowded. It was insanely hot, though.


We'll be in Jamaica until next Wednesday. Spending a little quality time with the beach. We're planning on zip-lining through the forest. Go here to watch a video on it: http://www.chukkacaribbean.com/MontegoBay/canopy.php I'll be posting blogs throughout the trip (hopefully) with pictures. We can't wait!

As for my port, it's finally healing! The bruising is almost gone. There is some scar tissue under the scar, but I'm proud of that. Feels like a little mini port. :) I went to see my surgeon (who's awesome!), but was a little disturbed by the clock in the exam room:

Okay...better go. Still have to pack.

Thanks for reading!
