Church, Finally

I haven’t been to church since before JD was born, and even then it was only for an hour or so.  Today I went to church, and it was great!  Jeremy and I got there a bit late, we are still trying to get used to getting ourselves and JD ready and out the door for things on time.   Besides feeling loopy and having a hard time focusing thanks to the medication, it was a great afternoon.

When we got home mom helped me change the dressing on my incision.  It was the first time we were able to actually see it and I am glad mom was with me.  It was much bigger than I had thought it would be.  I’m still in a lot of pain, and I am not a fan of the medication because I don’t think it’s really taking the pain away… it’s just making me so loopy I don’t care that I’m in pain.  I have used an ice pack a few times today and it helps quite a bit.

JD is doing so much better.  The antibiotic seemed to help him within hours of him taking it.  I’m so thankful he’s doing well.  Tonight I heard him laugh for the first time.  He was smiling at mom and just let out a little airy chuckle.  It melted my heart.  He loves to push off of things with his legs.  You really have to watch out for it because if you aren’t expecting it he’ll send himself flying and you into a panic trying to catch him!
