Another splint off!

It truly amazes me how easy Reiko gets over his fractures. Yestuday I was able to remove his left fiberglass cast on his leg and today I was able to take his arm out of the splint and he was happy, he doesn't move it much, but he doesn't cry when it is moved at all. So now we have one more to go, but that one we will still try for another week since it is his femur, and those are awful bones to break. Reiko has been getting such a little personality now on him, and boy does he let us know when he is not happy with what he is doing now, he lets out this angry scream and gives you a look. I remember the days when Kai started that as well, and it was always so cute, 3 years later and it gets old lol, but right now it is cute to see Reiko actually show his moods. He is finally acting more like a almost 1 year old then a 3 month old.

I can tell the last thing on my mind was my mom's heartattacks last night because I had a nightmare that she died, and I was so devastated, I was crying so hard, I am surprised I didn't wake up crying like I have before. Ughh, I hate those type of dreams. I woke up a few times last night though with almost a heaviness feeling in my chest, it wasn't painful or bad but it was annoying, plus I have had headaches everyday since Montreal, so I think my body and mind are pretty stressed right now. I hope I can find a way to stop being stressed out, but being in winter, it doesn't help hardly getting outside. I hardly ever do my makeup anymore or my hair. But tomorrow I will wake up and do those things and maybe I will feel better about myself and therefore not feel stressed.

So I did something I used to see mom do all the time today, I got down on my hands and knees and scrubbed the kitchen, fridge, cubboards, doors, floor..and I actually enjoyed it..weird...but it felt good to do something other than sit on my big butt lol. Tomorrow I may try to attempt the livingroom or bathroom..maybe. I am wanting to go to the gym tomorrow to, just for an hour to workout and get things out of my mind. I realise I need that out time, as does Derek. we get to stir crazy in this tiny little house.

Kai was a good boy most of the day, Reiko, Kai and I went to Bartliffs this afternoon while on a walk and we sat down and had a treat, people were looking at Reiko so strange since it looked like he was missing an arm, but he just smiled at everyone...and Kai loves it at Bartliffs, so we had a good little visit. Its to bad I can't work there anymore, it was great while it lasted though. I haven't got anything else on my mind at the moment, so sorry for the boring post...
Take care,
Jessica
