Week of May 20th

We have been working on trailer training our filly and her mamma to be separated from her.  

We asked the vet and we will need to stop every hour from here to Idaho to let Arcadia nurse off of mamma because they will be separated in the trailer.  It is going to be a Long trip.

Bating bunnies with grass and trying to catch one...they love to do this while we are out at the horse.  This week the boys have been taking a walky talky with them on some of there long walks and they go exploring way out past where we can barely see dots of where they are.  We call them adn say "how ya doing" or "Come on back"  They have been loving the freedom and the independence they get when they go.  They take their compasses and pocket knives and their love for adventure and I love to see that alive in them.

So I went to two different doctors this week trying to figure out why I cannot walk.  It has been about 3 weeks now that I have had trouble walking. The first doctor was not helpful so I went back and got answers that I feel are right on.

  She thinks I have Pelvic Girdle instability.  It is quite common in pregnant women because of the hormones that are released in the body that loosen the joints, tendons and muscles. but it usually goes away.  So after doing my own research I have had this for most of this pregnancy and have had some very painful episodes with it.  I have told my doctors about it but they said it is normal.  So I didn't get the actual 'girdle' to help with the instability I have been having.  So now I have to have physical therapy to see if that works so I can walk normally again....The things we go through to get these beautiful blessings in our lives (I actually have it really good and easy compared to a lot more women out there.)   So next week after the holiday I will set up physical therapy that will take place in June.  So I guess it is a good thing we will be around so I can hopefully get better.  

We are excited to say we are officially out of debt.  We were around $50,000 in debt at one time and now none!  We feel so good with that behind us and are trying to help our future so we don't make the same mistakes we made in the past.  I am really looking forward to new things and the adventure that lies ahead.
