Cebu City, Philippines

Everybody wants them. Who doesn’t? After a long day at work or a stressing week in school everybody deserves to have a breather .

It’s a good thing that Cebu has a lot to offer to anyone who deserves a break.

And now something new has been added to what the city has to offer. Being the first of its kind theme park in Cebu City, Rainforest Park offers relaxation, shopping, dining and adventure.

Located at Panagdait, Mabolo, Rainforest Park is designed to make sure that everyone would have all the fun and adventure combined with leisure and relaxation in a single location. The place is open from 9am to midnight which just means that one can drop by anytime in between their busy day. Whole article here.

Great shot, but makes you wonder what they will simulate next, will this be our only rainforests?

Koh Chang, Thailand

Since reaching Koh Chang, we dawned our island attitudes, and have been enjoying having nowhere to be but in a hammock or on the beach.

The laid back pace of life on this lush island is a refreshing change from the bustle of Bangkok.

With one main road going most of the way around the island, we are thankful to say it nearly impossible to get lost or wander for hours in search of our desired eating establishment (which can’t be said of either Bangkok or Chiang Mai.)

Though we have certainly not tired of Koh Chang’s alluring blue waters, towering coconut trees and sunshine, we have decided to say hello Koh Kood, a neighboring island to the south. Our feet should touch Koh Kood’s sands by 2pm tomorrow.

Sounds like a really nice place to just be!

Croatia is beautiful with many historical sites, scenic coastline, and wonderful people. I highly recommend a vacation there…off-season to avoid the crowds and heat of summer.

Nice shot, good looking sandals!

Jonathan leaves for boot camp on June 4. He graduates on or around August 6, at which time he’ll be told where his school will be located. Then he’ll be sent to A School within the few weeks following boot camp. At this point I will be 4-6 weeks to my due date. Since I want to be near him during his school – which lasts 6 months – I will be moving to wherever in the United States his A School is (though I have a sneaky suspicion that it’ll be in Pensacola, FL). So we will have roughly a month after his graduation to find a place to stay, then move ourselves, our cats, our dog, and our baby things to Who-Knows-Where, USA and get our little world ready to be rocked by a new baby.

The chaos of potentially moving cross country, coupled with the fact that we’re not really going to be experiencing an excess of money till Jonathan is well into boot camp, has our hands tied to buying only the barest of the bare necessities to keep Tessa alive, healthy and happy. Not only that, but I will have to be making the majority of our purchases without Jonathan – which is why it was so important to run the big buys by him BEFORE he leaves to be a tight pantsed sailor suit military man on June 4. That way I can buy the things on our list stress free and without any unpleasant “Here’s what I did with the checkbook while you were gone, honey!” moments.

So yesterday we spent the day in Fresno at Babies R Us and Buy Buy Baby with my friend Bree and her family. Bree is a supermom, who is a veritable guru of baby safety and practicality. Having her help us through the registry and the ins and outs of new parenthood was a life saver. For instance, we didn’t know we could take the jogger and baby car seat we were looking at buying out to our car for a test run. (Yeah, that thing was WAY too big. Potential disaster = averted.) And between using her children as experiments on products to practicing car seat safety on a Hello Kitty doll, Bree gave us the thorough 101 on essential baby purchases.

Halfway through our first stop at Babies R Us I got a huge stress headache. Those stores bombard you with useless crap that look so fun and indispensable. Then inadvertently adding up the price tags of the last 35 pointless diaper wipe warmers / Disney themed pacifier holders / Winnie the Pooh plushies was sending me into a financial meltdown. Again, I don’t know what I would have done without Bree there to keep me focused on the essentials!

A new baby on the way, a cross country move, yea, kind of stressful, but you shall be fine, these things have a way of turning into some of the best memories.
