Our Crazy Puppy.....

Well... time flies as little Jack is now 5 months old. He's such a comical puppy and so full of life. He loves to spend his days chasing his tail, gnawing on bones and frolicing in the yard with the kiddos. He's just so happy and carefree. There are times I ask myself why we needed to add more chaos to our home with an energetic puppy, but then he comes up with love and kisses and I understand why.

More Yumminess.... I'm in Heaven!

So Now the Waiting Begins.....

After having these horrible headaches for well over a year or two, I am finally on the path to finding a reason behind them.

After a routine eye exam, they found that I have swollen optic nerves meaning something is putting pressure on my brain... therefore causing the pain. Now it's just a matter of figuring out what is inside my brain causing the issues.

So I had bloodwork done today and will be off for an MRI Wednesday... the same day as preschool graduation for my preschool class and then for a visual field test to try and come out with an answer. I am trying to think positively right now, but its a hard pill to swallow easily right now.

So that's my life right now in a nutshell...waiting and wondering what is going on and praying for the best. I am so incredibly terrified right now, but a part of me feels so much relief that an end to this pain is hopefully in sight... no matter what the final answer is.
