An interesting ride

The last couple of weeks have been quite interesting. I had another bought of tonsillitis the last full week of March into April... Was in a car accident on Friday March 27th (I'm fine, the Focus wasn't...but is fine now), and then had my tonsils removed on Thursday April 2nd. It is Tuesday April 14th, and I'm just now back to work for my first full day. I lost the last 10 days of my life...I was so drugged up on pain medication and just trying to make it through each day. But the worst is now behind me, and hopefully I have sore throat free days for a very long time. We also celebrated a quiet Easter at home with Mike's parents coming in for the day. Nate was at his grandparents (Grammie and Papa- Camp Whetzel as we like to call it...you'll see why when I post the pictures!) for the first few days of my recovery, but I have those pictures on a different computer and will have to add another post with those shortly. For now I have a few shots of the last couple of weeks... (don't worry, no unnecessary tonsil shots or anything gross! HA!) Enjoy!

Nate wanted to cuddle with mommy (that's exactly what he said)- this is the first day he came back after my surgery.... so I'm there looking swollen and recovering...
Mike is so going to shoot me for putting this up.... heh, its a man-bag! :)

Nate and Daddy decorating Easter eggs....


Decorating more Easter Eggs....
I think Nate had just as much fun coloring on himself...luckily its washable marker! :)
Nate on Easter...

He's really picking out the water squirter from Grandma and Granddad's bag behind his basket, but it looks like he's pulling it out of his basket...look magic!
This is the second time he's wanted to wear his sunglasses in the morning...his future's so bright, he has to wear shades! (To his credit, it is pretty bright when the sun shines in there in the morning...)

Nate has reached the requirements for a backless booster seat- since they are pretty cheap, daddy went out and purchased one to put in the truck- then we went on a Sunday drive together on the lovely Sunday afternoon...this is one of our favorite past times....

Thanks to Sissy's mom for the fun bunny ears! :)

What a cutie pie! :)
I'll post some more pictures from Nate's time at Grammie and Papa's and more from Easter Sunday.... til then!

Glad to hear that your recovery is in full swing and you're getting back to normal. I can't even imagine going through what you've been through the last few weeks! What a trooper you are!
