What a pain in the... wrist

My left wrist has been sore for months. It was one of those things that wasn't sore enough to worry about at first, but has been getting progressivley worse and worse. Now it's to the point where it's starting to interfere with my daily activities so I finally booked an appointment with the doctor. Now, being such an internet savy person, I did some "research" and have self diagnosed myself. (My doc is going to love that ha!) I'm pretty sure I have de Quervain’s Tendinitis. Sounds exotic doesn't it? One article I found writes that it is "a painful condition caused by inflammation of the tendons in the thumb. So common is the condition among women who have recently given birth that it is sometimes called ''new mom's syndrome.'' I hope the solution is fairly quick because it's really starting to get annoying. I think the choices are wear a wrist brace or get a steroid injection. We'll see what the doc recommends.

I'm excited for Halloween tomorrow and we are also attending a Costume Ball/Halloween Wedding on Saturday. I'll post pictures afterwards because I'm pretty sure we'll never attend another wedding like it in our lifetime. I'm going all out and even painting my face (which I'm not a fan of).

Happy Halloween everyone!!!

Singing

I think Eli might take after his dad in his singing abilities...

October

October is my favorite month. Thanksgiving AND Halloween both in the same month. How can you beat that? We are attending a costume wedding on Nov 1st and have been searching for our costume in our boxes in the basement. So far, no luck!! I think we have a back up plan if we can't find it but until then, the search continues. We still have boxes that have not been unpacked since we moved. Sheesh.

Some photos from the last few weeks. Alot of these are doubles if you've seen my facebook pics.

My fav pic at the moment. I just love babies in hats!

Fun with dad:

Sweet Sixteen

We celebrated Thanksgiving at my Dad's this year. It was so tasty. Thanks for the great meal! We also celebrated Sebastian's sixteenth birthday. That is 112 in human years. Sebbie is the first dog I ever had. These days he is my dad's sidekick!! I made white cupcakes to celebrate the occasion.

Happy Birthday Sebbie.



I found an old photo of me with Sebbie. Look how cute he was!
