Day 4 plus a bunch of stuff


Here we are on day 4...I was up till past midnight, but i did it all...even coming off of a monster migraine. I'm so dang excited to be challenged and to be holding myself accountable for doing what I said I'd do. Feeling great about the whole thing!
Busy day today...took Brittany to her ultrasound. Everything is looking good. There is no damage yet to the baby's intestines. He is such a cute little boy!
Then I went in for my first mammogram. Oh my heck! It was just terrible! I was under the wrong idea about just how they are done. I thought they just give your breasts a good squishing, but noooo! They smash them REAL HARD between 2 ice cold square hard things I like to call the boob vise grips. I almost cried it hurt so bad. The tech girl is like "don't breathe"...well hello! I couldn't breathe! I understand it gathers important information, but boy was it a horrible experience!
The best thing today was that the new counters were installed. Still don't have the faucet in or running water. It looks so pretty that I will actually WANT to do the dreaded dished! YAY! Counter top pictures to come!
Puppy news...Pumpkin can climb the baby gate and throw her body right over, so that she is free to chew up everything in sight and piddle where she shouldn't! Cutest little thing, but lots and lots of work!
