We are back from our trip to Montreal. It was great to have a mini-holiday, and things started out strong. The babies were wonderful during the long drive across the border. They slept almost all the way. However, by the second day of the trip, it became apparent that I was getting sick, and so were the babies. It was Hank and Clara's first cold. Not the most fun for anyone. Clara had the symptoms the worse at first, and all she wanted to do was nurse. It was nursing feast 2008, with nursing every 2 hours at night and every hour during the day. We ended up coming home a day early, so everyone could recoup at home.
Even with the ailments overtaking us, the limited time in Montreal was great. It is a beautiful city, and the people take big efforts to maintain its clean appearance. We walked the babies around parts of town, but also left them with a babysitter to allow Mark and I some free time. Mark and I were able to have a wonderful dinner in the Old Montreal section of town in honor of our anniversary. It's hard to believe we have been married for two years. So much has happened in that time frame.
I have a few pictures from the trip, which I'll post before too long. For now, it's just quiet time for all of us, as we finish recovering from this silly respiratory virus. The babies turn six months on Saturday!
