Tree Update: Our Landlord will be covering the cost to clean up the tree. Today some guys came to do an estimate and they used their chainsaw to cut a hole so we can get to our front door (free of charge). Tom is trying to convince me that we could do it ourselves and tell our landlord to take $300 off our rent (the guys said today they were going to change $350). I am still thinking about it... hmm...Here is a picture of our fallen tree during the day:


2 - Today I went to the Podiatrist because I have had 2 sore heels for over a year now. On our cruise last year I carried 3olb. Preston for about a mile in flip flops (this is when the pain started). I kept trying to treat it myself. I read online it would take 3 months to heal so I decided it would heal my last trimester of pregnancy so I bore the pain. When I started aerobics again 4 weeks ago it started to hurt again :( I decided I could no longer diagnose myself and headed to the doctor.

Well today I went and was diagnosed with the ever common Plantar Fasciitis. I came home with night splints, 2 ankle braces to wear in the day, presciption anti-flammatory medication, anti-flamatory creams, and a worksheet with a bunch of stretches I need to do. The doctor said I should not do aerobics until it heals...... but I just can't do that.... I am going to do everything, but I just can't not do aerobics because it is what I love doing the most. So I am going to just not jump as much. The doctor also said I inherited an extremely high arch in my foot so I am going back in a week to get fitted for a custom made shoe insert so I don't damage my feet in the future. I shall keep you updated... My poor feet :(

3 - When I came out from my appointment with the doctor today the receptionist said, "Your husband called and he says your baby is fine, but he won't stop crying and he isn't sure what to do so he wants you to call him." So I called home and Tom's boss got mad at him for not being on a phone call because Wesley was crying. He said, "Hurry Home" I am not sure what it is, but Wesley just starts crying whenever I leave home and Tom is there..... He just loves to cause havoc in his dad's life. He hit a milestone on Saturday - we took out the hammock in the baby bathtub so he sits in the deeper water now. He loves the bath:



4 - Funny Preston Quotes Today: This evening it was Thundering and Lightening. Preston was saying "I'm scared" and I asked him why he was scared and he said, "The clouds are grumpy and I want them to be happy." We drove to my parents house and he said, "Look there is sunshine over there. The clouds are happy again."

Preston and I walked to get the mail. When we got back to the door he quickly ran in and locked it. I said, "Preston, let me in" and he said, "Use your key."

OH wow your poor feet!! That totally stinks. YOu need to take it easy though!!! Take it from Will - he is constantly injuring himself because he's a long distance runner and is always ignoring his injuries and they never go away. Finally, this year, he took a few months off and slowly started building back up to running longer, and he is almost better. Good luck though.....yikes... :(

That is so funny to hear that your band is the Weswees! LOL. That is sooo sad your beautiful tree fell down. You have had some wacky weather, I've heard.

Do you still have Wed. April 30th blocked out for me when I arrive to visit YOU?! Put it on your calendar now!

I'm sorry about your poor feet. That sounds PAINFUL. I am chuckling about Tom being home with the crying baby.

Heddy, I've had the foot problem for many years. It comes and goes, but the best thing I've found is to wear my custom insert and stretch the calf muscle morning, noon and night. You wouldn't belive it to be connected to the calf muscle but the last Dr. I went to told me that and it works miracles. No more pain. And please please, more pictures of the babies....Love you...Aunt Denny
