well, it started off friday night... we finished work, went out for dinner and then went home. everything was great! then we went over to the neighbors to stop and visit before we went in the house. when we were walking over to our house i kinda' missed seeing a hole in our yard and i was carrying jacob and we biffed it! my left leg went under me, right leg in front of me, i fell forward, but pushed myself back. jacob was fine, but my left foot was REALLY hurting! i told jason to get jacob off of me and i would try to get up, but i couldn't get up, so here i am 6 months pregnant and laying on the ground crying! finally, the neighbor heard me crying and "screaming" at jason to get jacob off of me and she came over to help. she thought at first i was rolling on the ground laughing. when she came over she took jacob and then jason had to pretty much pick me up and walk me in the house. my foot started swelling immediately and i was in MUCH pain. so after about an hour of ice, we decided to call grammy and grandpa to come watch jacob while we went to the hospital. we were in e.r. for almost 2 hours and they said it is just badly sprained and they gave me an air splint. they also listened to the baby and said that she sounded o.k. PTL!! so, they told me to take it easy and rest for 3-5 days with my foot in the air and ice on it... no weight, etc. yeh right! so, saturday morning we went to alliance, ne. (about 45 min.-1 hour away) so jason could measure a window and then we came back home. once we got home i had to make a rhubarb crisp, because we were going to the neighbor's house for dinner as we had already planned 2 weeks before. after i got done making that i had to get the corn on the cob ready too and then i took a quick nap and then i had to go interpret for the college 
graduation for 2 hours... when i was done we rushed home to go have dinner with the neighbors. we went over there and had dinner and by the time we finally made it home for the evening... it was almost 10:30. so i got my foot elevated and iced at about 11:00. meanwhile, when i was getting the corn on the cob ready, jacob fell off of my recliner, right on his head on our hard floor and has a nice bruise on his head. (this picture was today... a couple days later)

(this picture was today... a couple days later) so, yesterday after church i actually laid on the couch and just rested! jason, bless his heart, did all the laundry for me and hung everything up and even put the other clothes away. he also loaded the dishwasher. what a blessing! so, today i have to go in to the dr. to have her recheck my ankle and listen to the baby, because the e.r. dr. wanted me to have a follow up with her. we'll see what happens...
we do have one huge prayer request... we have a guy that we hired in february that we really like and he's a very hard worker and everything, but his wife got a job in torrington, wy. and he told us this morning that he will be quitting. we really get along well with him and he's a quick learner and he's been such a blessing, we will really miss him and this will put ALL the work on jason now. which it has already been a stress because there has been a lot of work. please pray that God will send the right person to us, or answer in His own way.
