Growing Up

Our little bug did amazing today in her surgery :)  We couldn't believe how fast it was and how quickly she came to.  It was a bit nerve racking when the nurse came to take her for the operation, but other than that it was simple and went smoothly.  She wanted to just cuddle and watch cartoons for most of the day, but got very active in the early evening, she was her normal silly self :)

Today marks a milestone for Bella.  While I was getting ready this morning, Kyle was downstairs and all of the sudden we heard a thud from Bella's room and her cry.  I bolted in there, pretty freaked out, she was laying on the floor.  She had climbed out of her crib and fallen!  Thankfully she was totally fine, just a little scared, but that meant it was definitely time for this............



the transition bed, and it terrifies me.  Bella is now free to roam, get up whenever she wants, sneak out.......nah, not sneak out of course, but she's growing up way too fast!  At least she can't open the doors.....YET :)

Foot Issues...Again??

I got on the eliptical today and got going at a good pace, only to have to stop so I could loosen up my right shoe. I was having major pain and it felt like my shoe was too tight. I started up again, lasted 10 minutes and had to stop because of the pain.

I went through this about eight months ago while training for a biathalon, I thought I had a stress fracture or something. No stress fracture, just very high arches. So I got some inserts for my shoes and everything has been just fine...until now.

I HATE this, injuries are such a pain, not just the actual pain but figuring out what the injury is exactly, the best way to treat it, and hoping it doesn't have to involve buying custom inserts that my insurance may not cover!

This always happens to me when I've been doing really well with my working out, it seems like after about a month something happens. Either a muscle strain, tweeked out back, foot pain, just something to throw me off!

Now that I'm back in my regular shoes, I have NO pain whatsoever, it doesn't hurt to walk, jump, anything.

Hopefully this won't last and I don't have to go back to my creepyish foot doctor.
