On Tuesday August 26th at 12:35am Madison Marie Schneider entered our world. She was a 4 weeks early and quite tiny but she is doing perfect. She was 4 lbs. 2.6 oz and 16 and 3/4 inches long. Madison needed to be born via c-section so that has created a little extra long recovery for me but I am doing very well. As far as my ankle is doing, the day Madison and I got to go home was the first day I was able to bear weight on my foot and I have been walking ever since. Still walking with the boot on but walking nonetheless. Matt and I are so in love with this little girl it's amazing!!!

2:15am=Insomnia
So it's 2 o'clock in the morning and I haven't been to bed yet. I tried, it failed. I think it's a combination of the last stages of pregnancy and sleeping with the boot on. Both make it very difficult to get a quality nights sleep. Plus I have 2 wonderful dogs that want to protect me from the bad people of the world so they bark at EVERYTHING that moves in the backyard, even if it is just the wind. I appreciate their protection but man it gets old. So I'm awake and I don't know when I will be able to fall asleep. Hopefully soon!!!

It's Official!!!
I am DONE with my student teaching!!!!! The student teaching journey ended on Friday and I am happy to say that I did a great job!!! My ASU supervisor came out to Central on Friday morning, she saw me teach and then gave me a glowing report. I am very excited that this chapter of my life is OVER! Graduation won't be until December which I will for sure be participating in. In other big news...I got my plaster cast off!! On Thursday they took the old cast off and put on the boot. I still can't walk on it for 2 weeks but it is really nice to be able to take it off for a few hours a day. Also, I will be starting physical therapy on Monday. Hopefully that will speed up the healing process!

Trying to stay postive
Last night I woke up at 3:28am. My ankle has been really hurting lately and it becomes really uncomfortable to sleep. As I laid awake for about 45 minutes I couldn't help but throw myself a little pity party of how much this sucks! I have been really trying to stay positive but at 3:28 in the morning I don't think anything is positive. I am really trying to look on the "bright side" like...I can get a lot of rest before the baby comes, I can catch up on some reading, I get to save on gas cause I'm not driving. All of that sounds wonderful for about a week, then you just want everything to go back to normal. I am sorry this is such a "downer" of a post. I am kinda using the blog as my journal so I am sorry that it isn't fun and happy!! Maybe tomorrow, today is just a hard day.
