Some stuff.....

Still here, still alive and my back still hurts!  I'm ok if I'm up and moving but the minute I sit.....ouch.  This is no bueno for a gal who sits on her heinie the majority of the day.  Ok......enough complaining. 

With the exception of my aching back, life has been peachy around these parts.  The weather has been lovely, which always puts me in a good mood, and we've been taking advantage of the long days.  I initiated our first family walk of the Spring/Summer last night after eating way too much for dinner and feeling like Violet from Willy Wonka.  The dogs loved getting out of the yard and I predict a lot more evening strolls as I continue to need to "walk it off". 

If walks with the hubs & dog friends weren't good enough, I also received my first Mother's Day gift.  Jody's aunt & uncle always have these Freesia plants lining the front of their house and they are beautiful.  Aunt Kristey decided I needed one of my own......here's praying I don't kill it. {Excuse the bandaid on my pinky finger.  I injured myself during an intense session of nesting}

While I'm on the subject of Mother's Day.  It occurred to me, while I was standing in the card aisle at Freddies, that one day I would be receiving a Mother's Day card!  The thought almost pushed me over the edge and I found myself holding back the tears.  It's not cool to cry in the card aisle......so I waited until I got in the car.  I'm going to be Harrison's MOM and I'm kind of thrilled.

  1. do you know what's causing your back pain (other than general pregnancy!)? It could be sciatica and there are lots of good stretches to relieve it, somewhat anyway. I had it with my last pregnancy and it's no fun! Hope you get to feeling better soon!

  3. Shandell.....I think I just pulled a muscle. The pain is in the middle of the right side of my back. I've pulled the exact muscle before but it was back to normal in a few days. I think being preg is just prolonging my healing. It's actually feeling a little bit better today. I plan on talking to my OB about it if it's still giving me a hard time in a few weeks.

    Heather.....Yes please!!! I need those magic hands in OR stat
