Baby Kicks

Most mornings, Mike likes to see if the baby is awake and kicking. He/ she usually is. This week, movement hasn't been as much as the last 2 weeks. Mike thinks I am just getting more used to feeling it, and that the baby is on vacation too and just "chillin." Every time he feels a kick, he asks if I felt it. If you can feel it... I can too!!

I think the baby likes Hawaii. Maybe we should stay longer. I mean, for the baby's sake.

Sunshine!

Our morning was planned around watching IU play in the next round of the Big Ten Tourney (déjà vu), and the sun finally came out after the game ended! We spent the afternoon hanging at the pool that looks out to the ocean. IU lost, but it was a great day sipping (virgin) cocktails. Tonight we are walking down the beach to a restaurant for a 3-course tasting menu. Hope tomorrow's weather is as good as today!

Hoo Hoo Hoo...

Hoosiers! This morning is all about the Big Ten Tourney, with IU playing Penn State at 2pm EST. That means a 9am game for us. Mike called all around yesterday to see who might have the Big Ten Network and be showing the game. Turns out... no one and no one. Why? Because apparently no one cares about the Big Ten out here, and bars aren't open at 9am.

What a dilemma. Luckily, Mike was able to download the iPad app for BTN traveller. Whew, he can stream it live. If not, our vacation may have been ruined.

We had to set our alarms to wake up in time to eat breakfast before tipoff - missing a meal would be unacceptable. Who hurries their 6 month pregnant wife through a breakfast buffet? A husband who has to get back to the room before an IU game, duh. We got a AAA hotel rate that includes breakfast, and a bountiful buffet it is. This morning, I had an egg white omelette with green onions, tomatoes, mushrooms and cheese with salsa on top. Mike had one with tomatoes and green peppers. I also had a piece of cinnamon French toast with macadamia nuts, and some pineapple, watermelon, and cantaloupe. Mike had his fruit with yogurt. Yum!

After 3 cups of coffee at breakfast, he had to get Starbucks on his way back to the room. Hurry... only 4 minutes until tipoff!!

The weather here isn't pleasant this morning. It's raining now and I hope it clears up soon. In the meantime, I will catch up on some work and Mike is happy as a Hawaiian clam watching IU. Go Hoosiers!
