So, I just realized this past week that we are 6 months down in this remote tour! I cannot believe that Bryant has been gone for that long. In some ways, it feels like he just left- but in others, it seems like we haven't been a family in YEARS. We only have 6 months left- and we will be done with this dreadful year and move on. We can't wait for the next adventure, and can't wait to settle into a new home. Together. Happy. A family. *sigh*
The past two weeks- I almost don't want to get into it. I will give you a short version, because I know I tend to be a bit long winded.
5/01 I hurt my back badly. I ended up in the ER that evening getting a pain shot, MRI followed the next day, and am now on day 13 of bed rest. Have been out of the house not even a handful of times and in quite a bit of pain. Neuro surgeon says no surgery- would make me worse. I start water therapy in a couple weeks.
Next, a few days after I hurt my back, Sydney started getting sick. Ended up with a double ear infection and ruptured right ear drum. Miserable she was. 10 days of Antibiotics, which run out tomorrow, but she still should have until Monday. Calling the doc tomorrow as I didn't realize she was so low.
Then, yesterday Austin started getting sick. Feels pretty crummy. He's snotty (But what's new huh? Ha), feverish, sore throat, tired, overall puny.
So that has been our life for the past two weeks. Has not been fun. At all. One day things will calm down and I will be able to breath again.
On another note - a very very bittersweet one - Sydney will be two shortly. On the 29th actually. I cannot even believe it's been 2 years. I love watching her grow, the spitfire that she is, but I really truly miss her baby-ness. I want it back. I wish I could have paused time.
Anyways, I don't think I really have any other news- hopefully we will be up and running again soon and will have more exciting things to post!! (Although, 6 more months is quite exciting if you ask me!)
