We all survived last week, because of my mom's help. She flew out Monday, the day after my bike accident, and took on all household/nurse duties. For me, last week is a blur and I think my mind finally got a bit clearer by Thursday. I am a gimp and pain meds make me crazy, so I really needed the help!
The boys loved time with their mema, so it made up for my groggy condition.
She took care of all my cleaning, shopping, and feedings. She drove me to the ER again to get my splint fixed and took me shopping for clothes I could get on easily with one arm. Buttoning and zipping is almost impossible with one hand!! So now, I have some new skirts and easy tanks. The boys said I look like a princess...hahaha, they usually never see me in a skirt!!
She spoiled us all like crazy!!
A few hours before she left on Saturday, I decided she needed something fun to do before leaving Seattle. So, we drove to Pike Place Market for an hour of tourism. I didn't want her first trip to see us to be only filled with household & nursing duties.
She Loved the Market and it was a great way to send her off. She is a busy working woman, so who knows when she will make it out again!!
I also showed her the best view of the city in Queen Anne one day while she drove me around on errands.
Mt. Rainier was so clear in the background and the view was absolutely beautiful!
She also bought Elliot a crib. His broke when we moved to Seattle and he's been in a pack'n'play for awhile. Elliot loves it and snuggles right up in it!
