2 Weeks

Two weeks is the word from the doctor today. We will go back in two weeks and take the cast off, then they will take X-rays to make sure they are good and clear, and if it all checks out (which they say it should) then we will not longer be seeing red at our house!

We are feeling a little under the weather around our house though. Blake has really bad runny nose, cough, watery eyes, and a slight fever. He is actually doing a little better today. We're hoping for a full recovery by tonight!! Wishful thinking!

Also want to thank everyone who helped us out while our sitter was not working. We couldn't make it without all of you. It again just makes us realize we made the best decision moving back home. (not that I doubted that)

Driving my Car

Papa Donnie got me a new car to drive around. It is so cool, the key turns it on, the horn honks, there's a radio, and several other sound effects. It goes in reverse and everything, I Love Driving it around. Mainly in circles, but I love it after I get my cast off maybe I'll figure out how to drive a straight line?

Flying Kite

Mom is trying to find one handed events for me to do. Had to find a big enough jacket to be able to zip around my cast. Uncle John was over and helping me fly my new Mickey Mouse Kite. I thought it was more fun to let go of it, and watch everyone run to go and try to catch it. They would always bring it back to me too!

Bath Time

This is what I look like now when I need a bath. Mom can't seem to get it figured out, but it is getting a little better. I can still figure out how to get it wet. The bath was not near as fun with all that stuff on.

Dr. Appointment

Well we had our follow up appointment today and the doctor said his X-Ray looked good it is still straight, but it has not started to heal yet, so we have to go back next Friday again to see if it's started to heal yet, and has stayed straight. We still don't know how long we will have it on though =( Oh well I'm sure it will be here before I know it.

Easter '09

So Easter '09 brought a little challenge with the new cast, but we still made it all work. We had a great surprise when we opened the door to let Gizmo out and saw a TON of eggs spread out in our front yard. Blake and we were presently surprised when we saw that!

Drugs #2

We just thought these were cute, we have more because it was just so funny. I asked if they would give me some because they said he wouldn't remember anything that happened after it took effect. They didn't even tell us what it was called.

Drugs #1

Make a Smilebox slideshow

This is the picture of his x-ray before. That is what his arm looked like from the outside too. It was not normal. We did not get a good picture of his arm from the outside. We are doing better. I'm going to try to put on a slide show of pics and one/some of the videos from the drugs.

Blake Update

Red is the color around here. We have a bright red cast, and we go through surgery without rods!! It was a rather fast procedure and he was doing well after except for being STARVING. As several of you know he does not do well when he is hungry ( I think he gets that from me ). I will be posting pictures and a/some awsome video(s) from when he was giving the 'happy drink' It was hilarous! He is doing very well and we are home! I'll try to get everything on here later, but I have to get the videos from Aunt Jenny's camera first.
