Doctors visits ahoy!

The week before Christmas, M got rear ended while waiting at a stoplight on his way to work. The other driver had passed out behind the wheel from the massive amounts of PCP coursing through his system. He got arrested and M was able to walk away, thank goodness. Long story short, his car was deemed totaled, so we're currently driving around in a sweet rental (2012 Hyundai Sonata- we don't want to give it back, we like it so much!) until we get the settlement check for the car, Liam's (thankfully unoccupied) car seat, Liam's stroller (which was in the trunk, where the brunt of the damage occurred) and reimbursement for the $1200 worth of work we had done on it in Nov. No idea how much longer it'll take to get the check, but looks like we're going to be car shopping shortly. And car seat. And stroller.

As a result of the accident, M injured his back. The pain has been getting worse over time, and after several appts with his doctor, he started physical therapy this morning. He's going to be going 2x a week for 6 weeks and then they'll evaluate and see how he's doing, if he needs more, etc. I'm not going to lie, its really hard to see the man I love in so much pain. Its been difficult having to do all the heavy lifting around here, including Liam, especially being in my 2nd trimester with T2. Hopefully the PT will work miracles and I'll have my husband back to how he used to be soon!

On the Liam front, he's doing very well. He has a check-up at the doctors tomorrow, so we'll get a weight and height check, as well as a few shots. In the past he's taken his shot very well, brief cry of pain and then he's over it, fingers crossed he's over them fast tomorrow!
