Happy Valentine's Day!
 

I don't post many pictures so I hope this works...but I was hoping this would make everyone smile as much as it did me this morning. My daughter Allison wants me to let everyone know that she loves me and you all THIS much!

Hugs to everyone! :grouphug:

BTW...this was after I may or may not have broken my nose this morning...but despite the large cut on the bridge of my nose she has made me laugh and smile so much today. :)

Now that right there is worth a $$Million, what a great picture. To me, that is what life is all about right there. Thank you so much for sharing this.

$$ChaChinggg* We have a winner!

You have a real Cutie there:). This is the greatest benefit of Modern Technology, I get daily photos of my beautiful Granddaughter, even though she is over 100 miles away. Sharing happy, smiley pictures makes everyone's day brighter.

Thanks Catra,

She is absolutely adorable! Look at those eyes shine! Thanks for sharing her with us. I broke out in a huge grin just from the image. I can only imagine how much better it is to be there in person. No wonder you manage to stay so upbeat.

Hugs to you both. Happy Valentine's Day, :hug:

Saw this after I posted on another page about seeing a photo of your daughter on your profile picture for the first time.

She is absolutely adorable! Thank you so much for sharing with us.

I do hope your nose is doing better. Sorry for saying, but you sound like you are just as much of a klutz as I am. I am glad she has made you smile and forget about your pain. Not only today, but I am sure many times throughout her life, past, present and future.

Klutz? Oh no you don't. I have earned the CRPS National #1 KlutZ Award, since coming down with CRPS. You can't take that from me. nope nope nope

:winky:

I have always been a bit accident prone...but it has gotten worse since the RSD. I have lots of balance issues and just generally seem to be slightly off unless I really focus...and when I'm playing with my little girl I am not so focused...lol! When I carry her...totally different story...I am so focused on where my feet go, where I am, etc.

I changed my profile picture because the photo makes me happy...it's one of my favorites of me and my little one on the pier at the vacation house my boyfriend's family owns on a lake. It was such a happy trip...before my fall off that stupid ladder.

My nose still hurts quite a bit...there's a nasty gash across the entire bridge of my nose and it feels very weird...like there's pressure. Hoping it's just sore...I knocked it pretty good on the crib this morning.

Thanks. It is a great thing about technology. My parents live out of state but they get to see their granddaughter almost daily through Facebook...it's a wonderful thing. :)

Oh no, did you go to the ER? Does it need stitches?

I was definitely blessed with an amazing ray of sunshine in my life with this little girl. She is almost always smiling and happy. It makes me sad that she has to spend so much time at daycare because of my shoulder problems right now...but then I look through the several thousand pictures I have of her smiling and videos of her playing and it's all okay. I can't help but smile when I see that face. :)

I didn't...I think it looks worse than it is...at least I'm hoping. If it's still bad tomorrow I may go to the dr to get it checked out. My boyfriend said he didn't think it was broken...he's had lots of broken noses playing sports...but was worried about a concussion so has been keeping an eye on me today (so far no red flags on that front either).

Catra, She is beautiful. Other that the nose, OUCH, what a great Valentines! ~mac :heartthrob:

It has been a great day. My little girl was in a great mood and we took a small 10 minute adventure into the backyard and the snow. We put her in her snow suit and let her play in the snow a little. My RSD is flaring up from that...but boy was she adorable out there and we got some great pictures and videos. A great day overall and now I'm going to rest up...try out my new infared heating pad...and do a little stitching to take my mind off the various pains I have throughout my body...

Catra, I've been considering an infared heating pad, Do you think it helps more than a regular one? What brand do you have? Thanks ~mac
PS How is your nose?

I like the infared heating pad...it does seem to work better than the regular electric heating pad I have...a more penetrating deep heat vs the hot to the touch regular one. I got mine from amazon. I can't get the link to post...but I just did a search for infared heating pad and its the one that's 69.99 with prime shipping.

My nose is better...still has a nice cut across the bridge but only hurts now if I touch it or if I bend over.

Carta your daughter is beautiful!

Thanks...she is a real joy and I am just so blessed. :)

What a great mom. Just look at that picture. That little girl loves you so much!

:cool:
