The 2nd week in December I had been doing my morning walks and my left ankle had started to hurt, so I kept off of it for 4 days and went back out again and was able to get in 8 miles. Only to wake up the next morning unable to walk :-/ So I went in had an x-ray to make sure that I did not brake a bone or something, they said I did not brake it but suspected a stress fracture and was put on crutches. Well to make a long story short, after Dr's visits and a bone scan of my foot and ankle they determined it was a high ankle sprain and after 2 weeks on crutches I'm now able to try and gradually start working out again!! I'm sooooo excited about this!!!
We celebrated Christmas with my dad on the 18th! Everyone came over to our house and I was hobbling along making homemade lasagna and all the sides for lunch!! Thank goodness for a wonderful husband that was around to help me the day of, and a wonderful best-friend that helped me go to the store and came back and helped me bake all the goodies we had out! Not sure that with me on crutches that I would have been able to do this on my own!! Below are some pictures of the Christmas with my dad.
Now fast forward on to Christmas Eve- We had Christmas with my Mom and Grandmother and that side of the family!!! I love going over there and spending time with them!! Such a laid back atmosphere!! We do a Chinese Christmas exchange, and if you have ever had one...you know these can get interesting and quite fun!!! Below are some of the pictures from the celebration with them-
Here is where David stole Kelly's gift and she was not to happy about it! LOL
Me and my soon to be new sister in-law
Our third and final Christmas stop was on Christmas day, When we left the DFW area it was overcast a lil chilly and some light drizzle.....we were on our way to Amarillo to have Christmas with David's dads and step-grandparents. We were driving thru and we hit Memphis TX, and it started to snow.....and it didn't stop!! As we got into Amarillo the roads were not all that great!! But thank the Lord all of us were able to make it there and were all safe and sound! here are some pictures of our drive in! It was really pretty to look at.....just didn't want to drive in it! LOL
Here is David shoveling snow....pretty sure he just wanted to go out and play in it! LOL
Here are a few of all of us having some quality family time! Bill- David's step-granddad plays music with a bunch of his friends- he had gotten out some of his stuff and was giving us a lil concert :-)
In other news: I had my HSG test done yesterday. The Dr that did the test said that from what he saw while he was doing the test my tubes look clear and my uterus looks good (other than the septate) He will look at the films more closely but said that he is pretty sure everything is a go for our next round of IUI!
I will say, I'm pretty sure that I will be more close lipped about everything than I have been with this next round. I don't like sharing bad news, so if I don't tell anyone what we are doing when we are doing it, then I don't have to tell anyone bad news. I will be updating the blog on all our other news though.
I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas and will have a safe and happy New Year!!
We are going to have one last (God willing this will be our last anyway) Child free New Years Eve, so we are going to be out partying with all our friends!!! I will post all about it in my first 2012 blog! :-)
