Well the big news is that last Tuesday night, mom had her first return to the ice rink for a hockey game in 10 months. No hockey after 2 months pregnant and 2 months or so after Jake was born. It was also the first time that Jackie and Vanessa got to play hockey together since Vanessa started playing about three years ago. They both played defence, creating the 'Wall of Sunshine' that effectively screened their goalie every time. He was a very good sport about it, and luckily he was a good goalie so very few that got by us actually went in. Good times were also had on the bench with the endless girlie chit-chat between shifts. Meanwhile back at home, Jake slept for about an hour, and then gave dad some cry time. Luckily mom arrived back home in time for another demand feeding. Yes the next day she slept in and her legs ached from skating.Sunday, April 6, 2008
