R has finally decided to move on two feet! It was exciting to see her take the plunge but also made me a little sad. She has really grown up in the last month. Yelling to get what she wants, tantrums when she doesn't...It's all fun but I am going to miss the easy-going baby stage.I had a less then enjoyable past weekend. We had packed up the store to attend a charity scrapbook convention in Brandon. I wasn't feeling great on the Thursday night while we were packing (a sore throat, etc). We left early Friday (the drive was fun...there is never a dull moment or lack of conversation when traveling with Linda), set up the store and went for a meal. During the meal I started to get back pains...and it all went downhill from there. To keep a very long story short...I ended up in Brandon hospital twice with kidney stones. Think of labour contractions without the break :(. I missed the whole day on Sunday as I was in the hospital on morphine and then discharged myself against medical advice after the girls had the store packed up and Linda arrived at the hospital. I did manage to get a good dose of morphine and other medications for the drive. It sounds as though this may not be my last experience with kidney stones as there are more in each kidney. I still did enjoy what little time I had with the girls and am SO thankful to have such wonderful friends to pull together and help out! and that Linda...rubbing my back and cleaning up my puke (as she dry heaved beside me)! I love ya girl! A massive thank you to Cindy and Shauna for helping us keep fed, watered and operating this weekend. You ladies ROCK!!!!
I thought I would share a couple of layouts that I completed with the May kit from Rhubarb Roots.
