I was up so late last night. I couldn't sleep because I had a cup of Kona coffee (thank you, Les and Beth Araki, our friends from Hawaii). I think it was after 4:00 am that I finally got to sleep. Note to self, NO COFFEE after noon! Feeling good today. I lowered my dose of ibuprofen to 400 mg (I was taking 600 mg). I tried to do this a couple days ago but I was just too uncomfortable. I'm feeling good so far so I think I'll be able to stay on 400 mg, now. This may be too much information, but three small places on my incision are looking red and draining a little puss-like stuff. Pray for me. I don't have a fever and it isn't too bad but it worries me. I think it will be fine but I would still like your prayers.
Shellee and I talked about our incisions last night at Family Night. I showed her mine and she showed me hers. Shellee's has healed nicely. It looks like our incisions are about the same length. We talked about how it is more sore where the doctor ended the incision rather than on the side he started it on. We also talked about the weird numbness. I feel numb all the way up to my belly button. I'm starting to get some feeling back but it's still numb. Shellee told me her friend who also has an incision calls it her heeby jeeby spot. Shellee said she still has some numbness and this is 2 years later for her! At this point the numbness doesn't bother me, I just don't want it to get infected.
We went out last night to get pizza for Family Night. We celebrated my niece Renee's 2nd birthday. While we were out we stopped by World Market to get the kids the unique Christmas candy we get for them there, every year. This may be the last year we go there. It's too expensive. I got some Lindor truffles for me. Oh my, I am going to be in trouble when it's time to get back to normal!! It's very nice sitting around blogging and eating truffles. Pray for me please.
Here are the pictures from Family Night...
Adam, Renee's daddy, did the decorating. WOW! I loved it. He did such a great job. And you were worried, Shellee. I think Adam should do all the birthday party decorating from now on! Renee had a Dora party. 
Renee and her Dora Party
Julia made the cake but we wont talk about the Dora cake... Renee loved it anyway! We stuck all her "Dora Party" stuff on the cake. 
This is my grandson Isaac enjoying sitting up like a big boy making a silly face.
Happy Birthday to you, Renee!
Shellee with Renee. Shellee got her hair cut and colored it looks beautiful. 
Look at all the people!
It's all about the 2 year old!
Renee is happy with the present we got her. Natti likes it too.
How many parents does it take to cut a 2 year old's Dora? (YES, it's a Dora cake!) birthday cake?
Aunt Debbie and Uncle Jeremy getting the Kona Coffee. I wonder if they were up all night too?
Benjamin my grandson look at those cute little teeth.
The pregos. You guys are getting HUGE! My sisters Debbie and Julia.
My sister Shellee, my niece Renee, and brother-in-law Adam. Happy Birthday Renee!

You got a way better pic of the three of us than Juli did! Very cute pics! I had a hard time falling asleep too! Coffee never really does that to me, but I had two cups. I closed my eyes at about 12:30 and my body had NO intention of falling asleep! I think I finally got to sleep after 1am! That is a really funny pic of Isaac, he was so happy to sit up.
