21 months!

our little chocoholic is 21 months! almost completely over the chicken pox, we are still waiting for all of the scabs to come off. unlucky for david, he contacted the pox from her and is in the midst of it! he is covered, and very uncomfortable. i would love to post a picture of just how bad it is, but he might kill me if i did. so just think worst case scenerio, and that is pretty much what he looks like.
now that ruby is healed, we are back into our regular schedule of playdates and playgroups. she is very happy to be able to socialize with her friends again, and just be out of the house/garden. she does think that she is now capable of walking everywhere, so a walk that would take about 10 minutes with her in the stroller now takes about 30! she is slow, but very good at either holding hands or holding on to the side of the stroller (that usually has a baby-doll riding in it instead of ruby). it is good practice for when the baby comes, but i will still be putting ruby and the baby in the double-buggy to get anywhere quickly.
speaking of the baby, i am now 32 weeks pregnant and getting bigger by the minute. i can't believe i have less than 2 months until my due date! incredible! i am really beginning to hate maternity clothes, and can't wait to go shopping for new clothes once this weight is off. pushing that double-buggy should help!

wow - i can't believe that ruby is 21 months. it means it's been nearly three years since i saw you last! aigh!

while a lot has changed, in big ways, i don't feel the passing of time like i used to. must be gettin' old!

i am cruising for cheap fares and if i find some this fall, i'm comin' back. three years is too long, and life is too damn short.

chicken pox sound miserable but at least she got them out of the way young, and before the baby came. i hope your husband feels better though!
