OLD.

It was a pretty hectic weekend full of so much fun but super draining. I shot a wedding on Saturday with the one and only Joe Photo and then yesterday, Sunday, we had the big 2nd birthday bash for Lucas at the park (Photos coming soon!). So now, I am up at 4am, can’t sleep and have this insane pain in my lower back. Wow! I never had sort of back pain before and I concluded that it could only be one thing…I’m not a young pup anymore.

It couldn’t have been the standing around during our wedding shoot on Saturday, since I’m pretty used to that by now. It couldn’t have been the standing around at the park BBQing by the grill…I do that all the time. It coulnd’t have been the lugging of crates of drinks and 60lbs of ice from the car. It couldn’t have been the jumping in the kiddie jumper. It couldn’t have been throwing around the football or shooting some hoops at the basketball court. But, I realized that if you do all of those things, add an out-of-shape 29 year old body and you will get back pain unlike any other!

Yes, Tey probably thinks I’m a big baby crying about my pain, but it hurts! And she has to listen to my whining! So, now, I’ll be trying to sleep in my belly…on the floor, cringing with every movement. Thirty is around the corner and it’s pulling me in with its tractor beams. So, I’ll probably be trying to get in better shape and eating a little healthier. Kids, take care of your bodies and eat your Flintstones vitamins!

This is me back in the day…a time without aches and pains. Yes, it’s true! Lucas and I are twins! ;)
