A Trip for the Ages

Wow, what a ride. We just returned yesterday from our "vacation" to San Diego to attend the wedding of our good friends Lucas and Cyndi. Actually, we returned from Santa Cruz where my cousin Alison was married, but we couldn't actually differentiate the two locales because we were so tired from driving. We left San Diego at 7:15am on Sunday morning and made it to Santa Cruz at 2:20pm, in time for the wedding at 3:00pm. Impressive, no?

While we had a wonderful time at both, it seems the traveling has really taken a toll on Jenn who woke up this morning with some serious back pain. She had been noticing increased aches in her back recently, but the time in the car and general fatigue has really aggravated her psyiatic (sp?) nerve. She phoned the doctor this morning and was told that this was totally normal, although it still sucks. Hopefully, it won't be chronic during the rest of the pregnancy.

It seems we are trying to make ourselves sick of traveling what with all of the trips we have been taking recently. I suppose it is good that we do these things while we can, but we sure are tired at the moment. We still plan to travel as much as we can (afford) even after the baby is born -- we want to expose the baby to traveling so hopefully he/she will get used to it.

Keyword = hopefully.

Anyway, I'll have to elaborate more on our recent travels and our upcoming ultrasound later. Work calls and I need to keep my job!
