We had been debating on going on a trip somewhere after we had Noah just to get away, We were all over the place with Ideas we were thinking Alberta, Minneapolis and somewhere warm. We were trying to convince friends and family to come with us, and we had talked to a great couple friend of ours John and Tiff and they said sure lets go for it! So we planned and planned and then booked our vacation for Feb 24 to March 3 at the Riu Caribe in Cancun Mexico!

We had booked our trip off of red tag.ca and were wondering if everything was going to turn out well. Everything had worked out fine! We had an amazing time out there and it did wonders for us! I am so glad we actually did go and that our friends came with us so amazing! I am going to post a few pictures of our trip.

So that was our trip! We have been so blessed with friends and family and all there love, support and prayers! And with the wonderful Women I have met online and have gotten very close to, who are going through or have been through Meckel Gruber themselves. Thanks Everyone! And also if you could keep 2 of my friends in your prayers as well, One of them is pregnant again and is in the waiting game of finding out if there baby is healthy or not. Another friend Nicole, just found out a few weeks ago that there baby most likely has MGS as well.Mothers Day was hard for me but we went to Winnipeg for the weekend and had lots of fun, so that helped out alot! Hank sent me flowers at work that were from him and Noah, and bought me a book series that I love! My parents and my sister bought me a white box that has pictures of Noah on the sides of it and flowers inside that can be used as a box for special things when I plant the flowers!
Also I have been back to work for a while now and It is a good thing, this way I have schedule again and not just sitting at home by myself.

We had so much fun with you this weekend. Thank you for the great idea.
My sadness is that I have never lost a child so I have no idea of the heartache you must be going through especially on Mother's Day.
To me you are one of the most special Mom's, you carried your child with such love and grace. You amaze me with your attitude toward life and the growth that I have seen in you since you found out you were carrying your first child!
I love you.

Beautiful pictures Jolene!! I love the one in the sand...you are an incredible woman!
That is great that you got to take a trip to enjoy some time away. I was also thinking of you on Mother's Day and I am glad to you have such great support from friends and family. The picture of Noah's name in the sand brought tears to my eyes, that was so special.
Hope you are doing well.
Jolene, it i so good to here from you. work & being busy can really be a good thing;)
YOU ARE STILL IN OUR PRAYERS!! MARIE
Jolene,
Looks like you had a nice break. Mother's day was hard for me too. I expected it but it kind of snuck up on me at the same time. Thanks for the new post.

Jolene,
I am so happy for you that you and your hubby got away and had some wonderful "together time". Jason and are planning on going away in November for the same thing!
We are hangin' in there. Our doctor's appt. show nothing different except they say that I am lower on amniotic fluid than usual (I hear this is normal for our condition). Every day is different as you well know, but our God continues to renew our strength.
Glad to see you are blogging again my friend! God bless you and may He continue to sustain you!

I'm glad to see you had a great trip. My husband and I had a trip planned if we ended up in the same situation. Your strength truly amazes me.
