It's Official

It's official! Keira is a full fledged walker. She has been practicing walking everywhere for a full week. It is so exciting!

Cameron goes tomorrow to have another x-ray to check on his ankle but we think that everything will come back fine because he has been running and playing on it for a week now. He still has his air cast on but it is not stopping him.

Garrett is my little helper. He loves to sit on my lap while I am sewing and he also helped me vacuum today. We are looking forward to spring and planting some flowers. They are already shipping them. Aghh!

I have been busy with Disney outfits for someone from church. She and her family are leaving this week so I spent all week last week with my embroidery machine. This week I have a shower curtain and diaper bag to work on for some etsy clients.

Mike has been gone a lot with all kinds of different meetings and such. Tomorrow he has his writer's meeting. He has also been helping out with the upcoming auction for Cameron's school. On the weekends he has been fixing the upstairs toilets which decided to go out at the same time.

Update On Cameron

For those who do not know, last Saturday night Cameron went out the back door and fell down one step and twisted his ankle. We told him to rest and put some ice on it so the swelling would go down. By Sunday his ankle was not any better so we were advised by Memaw to take him to the Urgent Care Center to have it x-rayed. They took a look at it and did the x-rays and told us it was a small fracture. He was sent home in a 3 sided hard splint and we were told he would get a cast when he went to the doctor. He was looking at 6-8 weeks in a cast.

Monday and Tuesday he went to school with his crutches, which he loved. He also loved all of the attention that he was getting. Mrs. Foreman found a wheelchair and Cameron used that for when they left the classroom. All of his classmates wanted their turn at pushing Cameron around in the wheelchair.

Tuesday after school was Cameron's Doctor appt. with the orthopedic specialist. Cameron was all excited about his new cast and he already decided that he wanted red and all his friends were going to sign it and everything. Well, it turns out that the Doctor didn't think his ankle needed all that so he gave Cameron a plastic air cast that he has to wear for two weeks and then we go back for another x-ray to see if he is all healed. What a blessing that he only has to wear a cast for two weeks. It's getting so nice outside that he was just starting to get outside to play.

I'll let you know the outcome in a couple of weeks.

Garrett's 4th Birthday

Last Sunday we celebrated Garrett's 4th Birthday (it was actually on the 25th). He wanted a Spiderman theme so I went all out with the decorations. I made a cupcake cake with spiderwebs on them and little figurines. He was very surprised. He received some very nice gifts from everyone. Thanks Memaw and Pop for the clothes and the froggy. Thanks Bonnie for the money and Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the sleeping bag which has already been used once. All in all we had a great time of celebrating the life of our middle child. He is so sweet and sensitive. At times he can be ornery but that is everyone, right?
