Falling Apart....

We are not really falling apart even though it feels like our little family is.

It started off last Monday at Nick's softball game where Nick pulled his hamstring and left him with a bummed leg. Even though I like to make fun of him and call him names like gimp, imp, limp and wimp. No really, I would never do that....what kind of wife do you think I am?

As you can see his leg looks terrible and is bruised all over the back side from half way up his thigh to down his calf. It didn't start out this bad but Nick has been trying to play racquetball at the gym during his lunch break still and I think it has made his leg worse. Nick doesn't understand that he needs to rest his leg or maybe he does and he is just stubborn and hard headed and thinks he knows better then the orthopedic. I keep telling him that he is just making it worse if he doesn't rest it. So, now that his knee is now hurting I think he has finally learned that he needs to rest his leg or else he could permanently have a limp if he doesn't let it heal properly. I am sure that Nick will not stay away from racquetball longer than a week.....frustrating dealing with him sometimes!!! You would have thought that if there was one thing that Nick would have learned from his mom it would be to always listen to your wife...........no matter what!!!!

Anyway, on Thursday Davis caught a stomach bug and was up throwing up that night. Never fun....I don't want to complain to much because most of us have been there and it will be like preaching to the choir, am I right? And of course what kind of stomach bug would it be if it didn't make its rounds through the entire family. I was really hoping and praying that I wouldn't get it but that would be to good to be true and of course I got it and then last but not least Nick now has it. I am still sick feeling to my stomach and am still recovering from it. I am just trying to make sure that my body stays hydrated but I wouldn't normally care as much if I wasn't pregnant.

Nick and I have been talking a lot today about how sick free our lives were before we brought our wonderful germ catcher into our lives. We never were sick and never got sick.....man who would have thought that once you have kids you would reminisce on the past of sick free days!!

Now I am going to go and take a shot of mylanta in memory of my sick free days!
