May 21, 2009 Happy 3rd Birthday Davis




We were so glad to have Davis here at home this year for his birthday. We had a GREAT Day. Cupcake party at school, afternoon at the pool then a homemade strawberry ice cream party at home! He and Sarah Bess will have their big birthday party together June 6th. Happy Birthday Davis!!!!

Cast is OFF


So much has been happening these last two weeks it has been hard to get on and update. On May 18, Davis got his cast off. He did great. He was very brave when they were cutting it off (which was interesting that they use this machine that had blades that vibrated, and were not sharp). I think it helped that he saw Mom and Dad stick it on his arm. We were all there even Sarah Bess and Sudie. He got somewhat upset after it was off. He felt weird and was itching all over. He also didn't like the XRay's. He was screaming, Sarah Bess couldn't see him. Sudie looked over and SB had tears running down her face. Sudie said "What's wrong". She said "Poor Davis". After we left the doctor, all was well. We went out to Breadman's for brunch to celebrate.
The first couple of days Davis didn't want to move much. By the third day, we went to the pool and he started to really get around. Now, two weeks later, he is walking holding our hand or furniture, he can get up and stand by himself and is using it more everyday. He is primarily using his right leg and then using his left leg for only balance.
It has been a long three months. I have been proud of both Sarah Bess and Davis for how well they have done. We are also so thankful for Sudie who gave up three months in order to help us and go to school with Davis. We are so thankful that the cast is off now just as it starts to heat up and before Davis's birthday.

Easter 09






So I'm a little late getting to posting pictures and information- no surprise there! But got some cute pictures from Easter- love the one with SB laying one on Davis! We had a nice weekend. I went to the Easter Sunrise service than got home just as Sarah Bess, Davis and Jimmy were starting Easter baskets. The children had a great time- they loved that Mommy and Daddy were keeping the nursery at church. Then we had Emily & Craig, Jessica & Matt, Shannon, Brian, Riley Ann and Regan over for Easter Brunch.
