So yesterday I called the woman who is  in change of the SIDS program in our area, they are based out of Pittsburgh. We had a really nice conversation, she is also a SIDS mom so it was nice that she understood how I was feeling. She invited me down for thier next SIDS support group on Aug 5th, I am hoping to go, it's only an hour and a half drive, but I always get lost when I go to Pittsburgh, unless I'm going to the Children's Hospital(I can get there easily, because we've been there like 100 times) Julianna had a couple surgeries there when she was a baby, but I am nervous to go by myself and I know Tyshaun won't go. But she said that she wants to get a SIDS group up in Erie, or in one of the counties near Erie, I told her that I would love to get involved in the starting step for that, I think it would be a great thing for us...I want Erie to mirror the things that the Pittsburgh group does, like they have a SIDS walk and we don't.  She said that it would be something that the SIDS of Pa organization would fund as like a branch off of them, so I think as long as we keep working hard to get things in Erie it will happen. So I think I am going to try to make the trip down on the 5th..I am so excited!

The TMI portion: still waiting for AF, she's now 18 days late, she was due on the 5th..I am having some lower back ache, so maybe that's a sign she's coming..if this back pain goes away without AF, then I'm calling the doctor!  I'm not testing anymore until next week(I hope) so AF better get here soon!

Miss Ari, mommy misses you so much, she has not been feeling very well today and maybe in a grumpy mood, but know that I love you and I miss you everyday.  love, mommy
