Oh, my…

I don’t even know where to begin…life has been not too easy lately. What with

KIDNEY STONES having me in the E.R. a couple times lately…

(Some of the worst pain I’ve ever experienced. I was writhing in a hospital bed hooked up to morphine…and this is someone who didn’t even writhe or moan during an UNMEDICATED childbirth and labor! So yeah, it’s bad!)

infection in my jaw and two root canals looming in the near future…

cracked and bleeding nipples (and therefore PAINFUL nursing all day and night)…

I tell you, it’s been rough. Rough rough rough.

We’re just getting by. (With so much help from family…thank you all so much!!)

But we’re enjoying every new step (literally, ha ha!) with Lillian.

(Oh, and speaking of her taking steps… VERY SOON look for an offer from Famous Footwear here on Our Havenhill!)

Lillian takes up to about 10 steps in a row on her own now! It’s so thrilling to watch! She also ‘conducts’ music and plays air piano. She knows WAY too many words and understands WAY too much of what we say! Our little girl is brilliant!

Here are some photos (recent and some older ones too) to tide you over till I can get back into the swing of taking time (and energy) for blogging.
