2 babies and feeding time...

So we have two little guys!
Mamma watches me closely when I'm trying to photograph - the screen is really giving me issues.
Tweaks has pretty much given up.
It's been so much fun watching them get bigger and bigger!! I'm so excited to have caught feeding time here!

Update and Traces...

I realized I haven’t updated you all in a while.
Not much has changed since last update, still taking the boxing boot camp Mon/Wed and Zumba on Saturdays. I bowl with the party league on Thursdays. Therapy every other Tuesday. Grandparents on Sundays.
I've fallen into a bit of a routine.
Rehearsals are starting to make their way into the mix of things.
I had a nice chat with my director today on the direction to take my character and I'm excited about it which before I wasn’t.
I seem to be running into quite a few challenges as of late. I am aware the work I'm putting into changing things is starting to really get frustrating. I have some pretty gnarly digestive problems as of late. I have always had issues in this department but it's gotten a lot worse the last few months. I'm meeting a specialist next week but I can’t help but get annoyed since I'm actually eating better than I used to and taking much better care of myself. I've also added a few new injuries to my already existing ones which is even the more frustrating. It's one of those battles that I'm the type of person to plow through things but now they've gotten worse. I HATE when something is keeping me from performing 100%. Did I mention I'm one of those really bitchy sick people? :)
My Papa is really not doing well and this is something I don’t know how I'm going to handle. He's mind is going and in my opinion is the worst thing that can happen to a person. It's absolutely killing me to watch someone I love more than anything in the world go through this.
So yeah. Been a rough month I guess. Er February was, it's March now isnt it!?

Onto a better note.
I saw Traces today. My lovely boss gave me her subscription tickets when she read the description "Urban Energy" and knew it wasn’t her cup of tea but something I would love. She was right. I brought along my friend who’s a brilliant choreographer herself and off to OCPAC we went. Did I mention the seats were Orch row G, almost center.
The group is 6 men and 1 woman (With RIDICULOUSLY amazing bodies I might add). Most from Canada, one Asian and 2 from the US. The show is described as cirque de soliel like.
It began very performance artsy with dance and movement. I'm actually not to into that sort of thing but certainly appreciate the beauty and grace of it.
The cutest tall guy and the gal did a beautiful dance number and he was throwing her around as if she was light as a feather. I've never seen a dance the way they did it. The strength, my god.
My highlight of the show was when they all climbed and flipped all over these 2 poles. I'm realizing right now that I cannot even begin to describe in words how fucking amazing this was. The strength these people had. They were doing things on those poles that didn’t seem humanly possible and beautifully! (I'm not going to lie - I wanted to have sex with all of them right then - throw in the girl too. My god). It was phenomenal.
The Asian kat did a fantastic bit with those yo-yo looking things. Oh and then added 3 more.
They leapt through hoops, they played the piano, they were funny, and they did tricks with a basketball, with skateboards, dance and more. This troupe was seriously brilliant. My friend felt renewed after seeing it which made me happy.
It was a brilliant, brilliant show.
I wish I could describe it better but you had to see it. If any of you readers are interested just google Traces or 7 fingers. Take a look for yourself!

And to add to the good, because I know this blog started out a bit down. I’ve started a “Happy Journal”. Yup – I want to write down every time I feel really good or I laugh really hard. My memory sucks and I want to remember the good stuff.
My birthday few days was nice. I treated myself to a massage, dad took me shopping, co-workers brought me wine and flowers and a handful of my lovelies showed up at Bistro 400 to celebrate me.
I’m working on changing. I know this is hard. I am up for the challenge. I just need to learn patience I suppose. Probably my biggest weakness 

Baby is here...

So it looks like we have one little baby hummingbird!
Unfortunatly I'm having a really hard time with camera getting to focus through the screen. The images below are a little blurry but you can see baby!!!
