10 Weeks 1 Day Old

I had my doctor's appointment yesterday for my Tendonitis. The doctor gave me a Cortizone shot and a brace to wear on my hand and wrist. The shot ended up not being so bad. The nurse sprayed some kind of cold spray on my wrist while the doctor gave the injection, which had both Corizone and Litocaine in it. I now have to wear the brace all the time until my follow-up appointment on March 29. It makes everything so much more difficult!

Christopher's now fairly regular about when he wakes up at night. I've been putting him down at 9:30 pm and he sleeps until somewhere around 3:30 or 4:45 am. I've got a Size 2 diaper on him at night, so we don't have to change it until we get up in the morning. Then, it's usually only wet and not dirty.

I have now been away from work all week. I was hoping to get in one or two days, but have been unable to find someone to watch Christopher for us. Hopefully next week Shad can stay home one or two days for me. Hopefully. I'm also hoping that my boss will go ahead and make some kind of decision soon so this doesn't drag on much longer. I just hope that when he does make his decision, it's to eliminate my position and not fire me!

I am such a horrible secret-keeper!!! My sister was planning to come down from Pennsylvania to surprise my mom next week for her birthday. She went ahead and told me last week and I was doing so good at not saying anything! I had just spoken to her on Tuesday and turned around and called my mom when I let it slip! Uff da!!! I told Mindy today from now on to go ahead and surprise me, too, since I can't seem to keep a secret! What's funny is that I can keep other secrets such as gifts just fine. So why couldn't I keep this one??? Grrrr.....

Our good friends found out on Monday that they're having a girl!!! :D I'm so excited for them. They originally had their ultrasound last week, but the results on the sex were inconclusive, so they went back this week just for a sex scan. I think they're going to name her Lillian Jane. We've already decided that she and Christopher will get married someday! ;) That or they'll be as close as brother and sister.

Here are a couple of recent pictures taken on Valentine's Day and the day after:
