A very pregnant me (above) and again w/ my DH at a wedding.
Introducing:
Cupcake
2. My family's strength, courage, and faith were tested when two men, driving on the wrong side of a twisty country road one Wednesday afternoon, met my mother-in-law and my son almost head on in a collision that left the driver of the other vehicle dead, my mother-in-law with extensive serious injuries and my son with (thank you Lord) a small fracture to his left tibia-fibula. I was 8 months along into my pregnancy. My son, JEGM, is now fine...the leg healed nicely...after a 6 week stint in a full leg cast! Nothing nice about sponge bathing a toddler for 6 weeks!
To give an idea of how serious mama's injuries were, I went on maternity leave the next month (after the accident) for 12 weeks, and when I returned to work, she was still in the hospital. She is still unable to walk right now, but she is a fighter and continues with physical therapy twice a week. We all pray to see her walk again soon.

JEGM and his cast just before they took it off...obviously he was really looking forward to the moment when he would finally rid himself of that dead weight!
3. I was able to sneak away to have some much needed maintenance done to my hair...I had my locs cut - Which now OFFICIALLY marks the END OF MY PERMED ENDS - Hallelujah!!! And I finally got some color with highlights.
(First two shots are just before hair appt.)
Post color & trim... This was yet another lazy day...had my hair up in a clip because I just didn't feel like doing much in the way of styling...ahh...the beauty and convenience of Sisterlocks!!
Doesn't sound very eventful does it? Well, add being a Mommy who's needed 24/7 all over again and this is what you get....no time....or very little time
