Been a While

Yes so I know it has again been a while since I have blogged. On the 17th of December Kyle and I set out for Vancouver ... and then on the 20th we headed down to Playa Del Carmen Mexico.. it was amazing! And even though Christmas didn't feel much like Christmas it was too warm it still was Christmas. All 19 members of my dad's side of the family were there and it was nice to reconnect with some of the people I have not spent time with in a while. Trace got lots of cuddle time with all of his aunties and uncles and his Oma and grandparents. 
Well the vacation started out a little behind ... our airline was 2 hours late so we had to hang around the airport that much longer. Trace was such a trooper. But being that far behind meant that we arrived even later in Cancun and then had a 1 hour bus ride to our hotel. We arrived at about 4 am Cancun time. Needless to say the next day was a write off, I slept a lot of the afternoon and my parents helped out with Trace quite a bit. 
We spent the next week eating, drinking and laughing with our family. I finally got to swim with the dolphins and even did the dolphin push it was awesome! As we prepared for our departure from the hotel we found out that again our flights were pushed back and we were not to leave until 4am Cancun time and would not be arriving until 8 am Vancouver time. THAT SUCKED! I couldn't believe it and didn't know how Trace was going to do. Again he was a trooper never fussed and was just an amazing baby. I thank God for having this amazing child! 
When we finally got home there was no rest.. we picked up our dog and headed back to my parents house where we got ready to go to a friends open house. Even though we were exhausted it was good to see friends and have a drink. 
Sooo Kyle has headed back home and I am still in Vancouver preparing for my best friends wedding. I am weaning Trace as well and am down to 2 breast feedings a day and 2 to 3 formula feeds a day!!! It is a very sad but freeing time as well. 
In the next couple of days Trace and I are super busy, we are visiting old friends, family and preparing for my best friends big day! I hope to finally stay up to date on these... but you never know life gets soo busy. 
Oh and before I forget... Trace is almost crawling!!! He moves around and pulls himself around, he rocks back and forth on his hands and knees and pulls himself in a push up position. CRAZY!!! My little man is mobile!!!
I will post pics later!! Bye for now!
