So a week ago on Monday I threw out my back, or as my physiotherapist friend says, I sprained my SI joint. It all happened when I leaned over where I was sitting on the couch and tried to pick Mya up off the floor. Bad idea. It was followed with immediate pain and suffering. I spent most of that week looking like this:
Combine laying on my doggy bed, getting physio 3 times, not working that whole week and having Adam basically do everything for me (I couldn't even get into the shower alone folks), I think I'm finally on the road to recovery. Today was my first day back to our old routine and that meant being a full time mommy while Adam was at work. It didn't totally suck but only because my child is now old enough to walk and understand what I'm saying so I totally made her help me with things. She's a good helper...when she wants to be. When I wasn't on the floor, my time was precious and had to be spent doing other things like showering and eating and then it was back to the floor! So, basically, that's my excuse for not having updated in awhile. Sorry!
To make up for it, I'm willing to share some cute pics. Good deal? I think so.
I think it's cute that she'll grab a couch cushion and sit on top of it like she's a princess or something, especially when she's doing something as princessy as watching tv.

That's all for tonight folks! I'm headed to bed!
The only thing is, my pie recipe says to leave it in the oven for 35-40 minutes and the crumble was ready after only 25min. I didn't want it to burn so I took it out but I think the rhubarb could've handled a little more time.
P.S. how awesome did I do on the crust, huh! It looks just like the ones you can buy, but I crimped it all by myself!
He said it was quite the battle to wake her up and bath her and get her ready for bed. I don't think he'll be doing that again.
Adorable, but never doing that again.

We were looking for a 2 room tent because of previous incidents where we learned Mya cannot sleep in the same room as us and this one offers us that as well as a screened in porch area that'll help keep the flies off if it happens to be a buggy summer. This tent was only $98! Not bad, huh? The 2 room tents at Canadian Tire were around $300 and that seemed awfully steep. I know the one we bought probably isn't the best tent you could get but for the amount we're going to use it, I think it'll be just fine.
Adam is keen to get out now and wants to go camping for the long weekend. I can't say I'm on board...I would prefer if it was a little warmer because we've gone camping on the long weekend in May before and I nearly froze to death. Mind you, that was in Ontario. It might be different in NS. Ok, time to take the tent down and test our abilities to cram it back in the bag before the rain comes back!
