WOW!

This week went by surprisingly fast! We were just getting home from the hospital this time last Tuesday. Carter has done pretty good. I only had to replace the tensor bandage once! I also found that since he really can't do anything, he's not burning off any energy during the day so we have cut out a few naps during the day....just so bedtime stays the same. He has missed going to school and really enjoyed going to Lisa's house yesterday. Mom is fun to hang out with, but come on, a change of scenery is good!
We are really looking forward to Thursday to see what his 'new' fingers will look like.


It has been a challenge to eat, play, color and even pee with his right hand. Poor stinker.
Logan has been a big helper and has really shown how to be a great big brother. He has been our eyes watching Carter while playing downstairs and in their rooms. He is also thriving at school this year. I was worried about him being in a grade 1/2 split but it seems to really be agreeing with him. He will be reading in no time!!
The results with the glasses are in: with only two votes.....the pick has been NOT the ones he has been wearing. We have now gone back to the favorites, now that they have been fitted again. I think we could be making a weekly visit to the glasses store for adjustments!
