Nov 27 - Dec 3

 

Monday, November 27 - Ouch! This hand/wrist has been so sore! The bruising and swelling are going down but still so painful. I also don't have very good range of motion in any of the fingers but I am a little worried about the middle and ring finger. I can't bend them really at all yet and I think I should be able to. Hopefully it comes back...it may just be slow.



Tuesday, November 28 - I took Simon to get an injection in his back first thing this morning. The only thing I was worried about was the kids getting out the door on their own. Viv came over to help them get ready but then had to leave about 10 minutes before they left. I went over time and time again that they had to shut the front door and lock it. My fears were confirmed when we got home and not only was the door unlocked, it was WIDE open! That was frustrating! Nick had a well-check and this was probably the last time at the pediatrician's office. :) It's funny to see a big guy at the kiddie office. He's doing great, super healthy!



Wednesday, November 29 - Right after school today, Ricki had activity days. They made these extra cute star sugar cookie trees. Then, we went to my first activity back in Young Women's. It was a prep activity to get ready to run the hot cocoa bar at the ward Christmas party in a couple of weeks. It was so fun! It's good to be back in my favorite place - Young Women's!


Thursday, November 30 - Since Thanksgiving fell so early this year, I feel like we've been ahead of schedule as far as decorating. Simon set our brand new Christmas tree up in the basement then Ricki and I put the ornaments on it. This is going to be our tree of memories with personal ornaments and the upstairs tree will be my "fancy" decorated tree.



Friday, December 1 - I started Christmas shopping online this past week and it shows! It's so fun to get packages on the porch because I almost don't remember what I ordered until I start opening them. It's like Christmas for me! :) Sorry for all of the gross wrist pics. You can obviously tell what has been on my mind the most over the past week. I finally got all of the tape off today and got a good look at the scar. It looks pretty good. I think it will heal well. Also, notice the cookies in the background. I don't know what I was thinking doing sugar cookies with my hand in this condition. Oh, the things I do.



Saturday, December 2 - I finished the cookies for the Olson's Christmas party tonight! My wrist did fine making them so I was glad I ended up doing them. Poor Zack has holes in his shoes so I finally took him to Famous Footwear today and got him some new shoes. Normally, I would make him wait until Christmas but he has actual holes in the bottom of his shoes and I can't stand for his feet to get wet. So merry early Christmas Zack!


Sunday, December 3 - The Elf on the Shelf is here! And he helped himself to a cookie. At least he's considerate and wrote a thank you note. :)
