Broken leg, day 40

Gabrielle broke her leg on April 6th, so today marks day 40 AND the first day of her not having to wear anything! She wore a split for the first week, then a hot pink cast for three weeks, then a black boot for two weeks, and now nothing! Final xrays and appt are May 23rd. She crawled most of the day today and has a terrible limp when she does try to walk, mostly because she is so used to dragging her bum leg on its side. Hopefully she'll walk normal again someday.

Gabby never really complained about her leg or thought anything of her cast, splint, or boot.

All three kids with Meema and Papa last week. Meema got to be with us for two weeks and Papa flew here over a long weekend.

Another birthday girl, Meredith turns 4!

She has been waiting for years to turn four so that she could start taking piano lessons! It was fun to give her some of her very own special piano books.

Meema was here for Meredith's birthday and here's a picture of the girls in the kitchen making Meredith's birthday cupcakes.

For months, Meredith has been telling people that she was getting a new baby "at her birthday time".

Got to blow out candles again (had a huge cake and candles at her party back in March). I'll try to post some pics of her two big gifts: a baseball glove and tee ball set from her Daddy and her room being redecorated by Meema & Papa.
