Date time

who knew that we would have to do more planning to get a date night than our wedding? 

We enjoyed time stand up paddle boarding for our latest adventure. 

Random shots from the past few days

shopping is exhausting! 

My baby girl is getting so big and squirmy!

She doesn't want to nap so we are making some memories.....

Health Journey

A few of you know that I have been trying to figure out what's wrong with me (ok insert your jokes here) for the past few years. I have been experiencing horrible muscle and joint pain, extreme tiredness, a mental fog, irritability, along with a few other things.

I had a new doc in NC that started screening me to rule out fibromyalgia. All my tests came back normal except for my Vitamin D levels which were crazy low. She wanted me to start Vitamin D supplements to see if that corrected some of my pain issues. If not, well she was inclined to diagnose me with fibromyalgia. (I know those that have ever wrestled with being sick and not knowing why can sympathize with just wanting a diagnosis.)

Then life got in the way of treatment....in the form of pregnancy. Now that Kenzie pie is here, I am on the road to trying to be well. 

Yesterday, I started my first of 8 weekly doses of Vit D. I am hoping to chronicle on our online journal the journey. I am hoping it will help me keep a record of my symptoms and hopefully relief of pain.

I am actually hoping maybe some of our friends and family might have experiences to share as well. 

So my first dose was yesterday, Friday, May 30th. I'm hoping to check back in next week!!

My little boy

I received a project from Isaac yesterday. Sweet flowers for his mama. I love their gifts like this. I noticed that his hands are almost as big as mine. When did that happen? How did my chubby baby boy end up a stout and solid almost 6 year old?!? I'm thankful for our little space here online where I can journal our everyday moments for the kids to look back and see/remember all the little moments that made up our life as a family!

His very first book report & oral presentation. I hope he doesn't suffer his mamas fear of public speaking!

Wine of the week

Since my beloved Duplin wine is a bit harder to get, I have branched out and started experimenting with my nightly glass of wine. This week was inspired by my middle daughter who is indeed sweet and sassy!

I wasn't overly fond of this wine but it brought back great memories of Our trip to Fredericksburg, Texas.

Daddy loves you very much!

So does your big brother!!

Kymber loves to dress up like spider man or maybe just like her big brother!

A private joke that my husband will love!
