Yup, that's right I'm going to be an aunt. I might be the most excited about it. I've already bought the baby presents. I might always look in the baby sections when I'm shopping now. I can't wait. Enough said.
Grandma Hansen was also in Boise for our visit home. We ate lots and played hard. We shopped and baked. Trips home always fill up the battery.
We saw the little one's who aren't so little anymore. Its crazy how big these two are. I started watching these two when Lilly was a newborn. Its crazy how much I love these two.
Amanda played dress up with Jack and then played nerf guns.

Vegas Part 2
Pinnacle Performance
I have always known my body was out of alignment ever since the car accident 5 years ago. I thought I had tried everything I could to not be in pain every day. My back has hurt every day for 5 years. Some days are better than others. A friend who is a physical therapist told me I needed to try this place that does physical therapy but also manipulation and pilates.
Long story short, went once to one lady who was just a PT. Wasn't anything different from the other PT's I have seen. Then they were able to get me in with the owner. A little skeptical (its pricey) at first but went anyways. I went and I am so happy I did. For the first time since the car accident I have hope that I wont always be in pain. For the next three weeks I will be working with these ladies three times a week. I can already tell a difference. Not to bore you but, I knew in my lower back that my bones were all scrunched together. I was right. My innominate and coccyx are jammed together and both sides of the innominate are jammed with one in front of the other. Hip joint and everything else are twisted to the right, causing problems in my knee (which showed up this last summer, IT band to be exact). My upper spine curves in order to keep my head and eyes level. In short, it equals pain, but soon I will be able to set myself back straight and do pilates every day to keep my muscles tight.
This will be the new way PT's are trained. You have to first fix the anchor of all pain. You can't just focus on one thing. If you have back pain, check these ladies out. Worth every penny. Pinnacle Performance in Salt Lake.

I wish I would have heard about this lady sooner. All of my health care is being provided together. A chiropractor, PT, and massage therapist all in one. This will be the new way PT's are trained.
