back in action

After 5 long days, my back is finally well enough to walk (slowly) and pick Kyle up out of his stroller! This is such a relief, because it is no fun being stuck on the couch all day long with a 10 week old and sad puppy who desperately needs a walk. I'm sure Kyle has loved all the extra snuggles and naps on mommy, but 5 days of immobility is 4.5 too many. I'm still taking it very easy to make sure I don't twist too fast and have a relapse, but I'm thankful that I'm at least well enough to get us outside today for a few walks.

a beautiful post-rain walk in the park!

I definitely wouldn't have recovered so quickly without Brian's help. He took great care of us all weekend to make sure my back got as much rest as it needed, and even brought Kyle to me in the middle of the night to nurse so I wouldn't have to bend over to pick him up or get out of bed. Next time you see him, make sure to tell him what an amazing husband and daddy he is!

the one perk of having a bad back: snuggles all day!
