Wonderful Start

So not that I needed it but now life has gotten a bit more complicated...I am now a one armed working mom!  This weekend while we were up at the cabin I somehow partially dislocated my left shoulder. So now my left arm is in a sling and is not supposed to be used for a while.  This is not an easy task since I have a two month old little boy at home. 

Let me tell you how devoted I am to Logan and to not ever buying formula...my arm is in so much pain that it actually makes me cry, and I'm not one to cry with pain.  I broke 3 of my toes and I never cried even.  I'm a person that sucks it up no matter what.  Well, while at the ER last night they wanted to prescribe me Vicodin.  Well I'm not one that likes to take medication in general but for this I would...but I'm breastfeeding Logan so I decided that I will just endure this horrible pain and forgo the drugs. 

Another obsicle I'm dealing with is that Logan was not really wanting to eat this weekend and we forgot the pump at home!!!  So I'm engorged all weekend and then suddenly Sunday afternoon comes and no engorgement.  I go home and pump with my Medela Pump in Style, which I love and have had great success with, and I only get a total of 3 oz between both breasts!  This is extremly unusual because I normally get about a total of 10oz or more in 15minutes or less.  So now I'm waiting for Logan's clinic to call me and the lactation consultants as well!  Oh what a wonderful start to the week. 

Here are a fewpictues of Logan to finish off this one handed typed post...
