This is my first blog and I am excited about it! We welcomed the newest member to our family James Patrick on Aug 23rd. He weighed in at 10 lbs and was 21 inches long. Since then he has grown to an impressive 15.5 lbs and 23 inches at 10 weeks!! I am finally recovered from my seperated pubic bone and happily sleeping on my stomach again!! I have been dealing with a bout of anxiety because of things that happened after his birth, but would take forever to write about. A friend of ours who is an MD suggested that I try protein enzymes after each meal. He said that curbed his anxiety and helped him avoid the traditional meds. I shall give it a try and see. In other news, we recently opened a new restaurant in Downtown bham. I will have pics on here soon. Our place is called the Mapleleaf Cafe and it is mainly an all natural/organic restaurant. Jeorge( my hubby) does not carry splenda,equal, sweet and low because it is poison to him. He does have in place of it agave syrup, sugar in the raw and honey. We are starting to catch on in town and people are responding very well to the food and the place. We are happy and hope to have a lot more business around the holidays. I will write again soon.
