Shingles

So, I found on Tuesday that I have Shingles....great! What else can this stupid Diabetes help me get!? I was so frustrated...to put it mildly. I was mostly frustrated because Annemarie and Megs were coming this weekend and we were giving Annemarie a surprise baby shower. And Annemarie's sister was flying in from D.C. to surprise her. We had everything planned out and people from all over the country sent gifts to our house for Baby Roberts.
Needless to say, she had to cancel her trip....and we told her about the surprise.
The twins will most likely get chicken pox now...we're on the look out for little red bumps. So far, we don't think we've seen any.
I'm amazed at how painful shingles are. I'm supposed to rest, and I just smile, like, "For real?" Eric has been wonderful about it...as usual. But I feel so guilty if I'm taking a nap and resting when the twins are here and ready to play.
I was so bummed on Wednesday night, which was Eric's birthday, that I took my eyes off Jackson for a few seconds and he leaped off the changing table and got lodged horizontally between the changing table and AddiLo's crib. I screamed for Eric and then just started sobbing. It wasn't my best "mommy" moment at all.
But things are slowly getting better. Jackson stands up on his own...WAY COOL! And Addison walks behind a little truck thing like she's been doing it for months. I think they'll both be walking by their birthday and Addison will have at least one top tooth by then too.
Time is truly flying by!
