Long day

Sunday evening Kev went on a short jog, when he came home he said he hurt his back. He didn't do much. He tried to get sleep, but he was unable to sleep because he hurt so much. At 4am he decided he would not work. I took Joey to school, when I got home Luke and Kev were waiting in the car. They were waiting for me to take them to Pine Forest. Kev needed to get some stuff ready for the sub. While we were at Pine Forest he got ahold of Dr. Freitas and also a chiropractor. So from Pine Forest, I drove Kev to Dr. Freitas' office. Dr. Freitas checked him out and decided that he has a spasm of one of the back muscles. He gave him an anti inflammatory and also a muscle relaxer. He also said that a chiropractor might be a lot of help for him. So from there we headed to the chiropractor. The chiropractor assessed him and ordered an xray and told him to come back afterwards for some treatment. After we left the chiropractor's office we went to Lenny's Subs for lunch. Then we took Kev to the Imagine Center for his xrays. While we were there Luke fell asleep and I had to leave Kev there so I could get Joey from school. After getting Joey, headed back to pick Kev up. We came home for about an hour. Then Kev had his appointment. Afterwards, his pain decreased some, but he is still in a lot of pain. We finally got home at 6:15pm.
Today Kev is home from work again. I hope he starts to feel better.

Perfect Day

Today we headed to Fort Pickens at Pensacola Beach. We first had a picnic and then we ran around the Fort and then off to the beach. I ended my day with a nice little run.

Weekend in a nutshell

Friday evening, Daddy took the boys to Barnes and Noble for a bedtime story time with Spot. They served hot chocolate and cookies. Luke was not in the mood for story time and did not cooperate. Apparently, he wouldn't leave the train area and then he said he didn't want hot chocolate or a cookie. When they were ready to leave he cried all the way home because he wanted hot chocolate.
Joey and Spot. Joey said that this was lots of fun.

Luke was interested in trains.
Storytime
Saturday when I woke up we were suppose to load everything up and go camping. First problem was nothing was done before I got up. Second problem was there was no plan and all of the camp grounds close to us were full. So we headed home. We camped in the backyard. At 1:30, Luke woke up and wanted to go to his bed. So Kev took him in the house and they slept the rest of the night in the house. Joey and I roughed it.
Sunday the boys sent the entire day outside playing in a hole that Winnie dug. They played for hours in the dirt. They had a delightful day and got filthy. Joey doesn't usually get really dirt but he did yesterday.

Weight loss

I am happy to announce that since October I have lost 10 pounds. I need to lose at least 10 more to be healthy. I gained plenty of weight with each pregnancy then I had the shoulder injury that put me in constant pain for over a year. For over a year, I tried to take care of two boys while I was in extreme pain. I am fairly rough and tough and I have a very high pain tolerance, but between waking up several times during the night in pain and just hurting all the time. I was so wore out all I did was the bare minimum.
In October, I decided to start running. This is something that I do enjoy. I am not fast and I am not consistent. Now that it is warming up, I am going to be getting out and running more. I am also going to take Joey with me. He enjoys it. He motivates me to go farther.

Not sure

Not sure what I am doing with this. I mean I set it up with hopes that I could put pictures on here for family and friends far away from us. GB can't figure out how to pull it up. I have to email the grandparents when I update it. So I am not sure if anyone looks at this and if it is worth it to keep. If you read it and think I should keep it. Let me know by comment.

Weekend Hiking

Last weekend and this weekend we have gone on a hike. Today we headed to Bear Lake in the Black Water State Forest. Before we began the hike we had a lovely picnic lunch. Then we went on a 4 mile hike. I must say 4 miles is a little long for Luke and so we will be looking for 2 miles from here on out. Everyone had a good time and the boys went to bed at 7:30pm without any problems.
The Picnic as you can see we didn't rough it much.
This is the beautiful Bear Lake.

That is right we made it 4 miles.
