Hope for the best, plan for the worst...

The title has been what I've been living by for the past few weeks. Not only is this relating to being new parents but it also applies to my recovery. I ran into another problem yesterday...

It looks like my perineum (where I got stitched up), developed a hematoma which eventually burst leaving a small opening in my perineum that got infected. My Dr. said that he's never had a patient develop a perineal infection, just my luck. I've been put on more antibiotics and will hopefully be healed within 10 days. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. It is starting to get increasingly difficult to deal with more bad news that ultimately prevents me from being the active, lively mom that I had hoped to be. As of now, I move at a snails pace and walk around like I have a stick up my butt. The pain is bearable, but I am constantly reminded of what's going on down there making me even more stressed out. I just really, really, really want to be "normal" again and will do whatever it takes to get there.

In Ali news, she is doing great! She's sleeping right now with Joel. She's in somewhat of a fussy stage right now, may be a growing spurt but it's nothing that we can't handle. She's a great eater, pooper, and a so-so sleeper :). I could just stare at her for hours.

Today Anthony and Nicole are getting married! Wish we could be there, congrats guys!

Ali's Adventure


Yesterday was "Sunday Funday" for Ali. We are actually trying to get her ready for her upcoming travels to Portland for Aunt Megans graduation in a few weeks. Here's a few pics from her adventure!
Cute as can be in her new sun hat!
"What's in your hair Aunt Nicole?" Ali Belle's Shrine.
She loves it outside. Check out her golf oufit :)
Joel's in heaven. Finally able to hit a few golf balls.
Everytime someone says "golf", she smiles. Probably because Joel only reads her golf books.
And, we're done.
Notice how she's sleeping in almost all of the pictures. We realized this was more practice for us and not her. She does really well traveling around. We are the basket cases most of the time :).
