What a week.

What a doozy of a week this has been already. The week started out on the rough side on Sunday. We didn't end up going to Sunday night service because Alan was having a VERY rough day. He was up at 8am and only slept for a whopping hour and a half until he went to bed for the night around 6pm. Needless to say he was crying, fussing and didn't want to eat or drink anything. It is never a good sign when this is how your week starts.
Monday was pretty calm though. Alan and I just relaxed for the day and he was a much happier baby. Everyone's schedule was back to normal and life was good......until Tuesday came around. I had a doctors appointment on Tuesday to find out how to get my body back on track so we can start trying for baby number 2. No we are not actively trying right now, but we would like to have another one on the way around Christmas time. Well the doctor said the 1) I need to stop nursing Alan very soon. 2) I need to put some weight on because I am unhealthy thin 3) I probably have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and 4) If I am not pregnant in 3 months or my body hasn't figured itself out in 3 months, we are starting fertility treatments. So needless to say, that is A LOT of information to get thrown at you all at once. And honestly some of that is really scary for me. I know that the next 3 months are probably going to be one huge roller coaster of an emotional ride. Fertility treatments was something that they had discussed when we were trying for Alan and it wasn't a settling thought for Matt or myself. We had seen what his sister and brother-in-law went through and we were not sure if we were willing to go down that road. Now the same split in the road is before us again. We are just going to have to start diligently praying for the Lord's guidance and for His hand of healing to fix whatever is wrong. After all of that Alan and I went home and had a lazy afternoon. Matt wasn't sure when he was going to get home so I just got Alan ready for bed around 4:30 so he could eat and then go to sleep for a bit before Matt got home. My son had other plans. While I was trying to get his clothes on, he touched the light bulb on his lamp next to his changing table. He cried and I looked at his finger and it didn't look bad at all. Just a little red so I put some ice on it to make it feel better and then put him in his highchair to eat dinner. I took Tater outside really quick to go potty and when I came back in I checked Alan's finger again. This time it was blistered really badly. So off to urgent care we went. Turns out he had a second degree burn on his left index finger and would have to be seen at the burn unit at the hospital in the morning. :( So we went to the burn unit at the hospital at 8am on Wednesday. They scraped the blister off and then put a bandage/dry dressing on it. All was finished and we were getting ready to head out the door when I felt horrible and blacked out. Luckly I was sitting in a chair when it happened but it was scary none the less. The rest of Wednesday was spent resting. Not very exciting at all. Our pastor's wife came over and stayed with Alan and I for the afternoon to make sure that we were all ok since I was still a little shaky.
Thursday was a little better. I felt better and Alan and I went to the doctor to see if everything was ok with me. They did a CBC panel, a complete thyroid panel and a full metabolic panel to see what my body was doing. We should get some results back soon. Hopefully this will answer a few questions for us.
Friday was calm until Matt called on his way home from work to tell me that he would have to go into work at 0730 on Sunday for training. There had been several incidents with sailors and because of that there was manditory training. :( No fun at all. So our weekend got cut short and I had to try to get everything ready for church on my own on Sunday. We successfully made it to church on time but not without our standard bumps and bruises. :) I hope that next week is better. I will put some pictures up of Alan here shortly but just don't have the energy to do so right now. Hope everyone else is having a good week!
