Our nightly walks have resumed! Thank you Mrs. Mann for the wheel chair!!! Shaun had a doctor's appointment today and they took his 15 staples out (I almost threw up and had to leave the room) and put a new cast on. It was a painful process due to the fact that they had to change the angle of his foot. He is now at a 70 degree angle and in four weeks they will recast it to a 90 degree angle. We were expecting a 4 -6 month recovery time but the doctor was encouraging and said to expect more like an 8 - 10 week recovery. Shaun has been checking out the Achilles Tendon Blogs (I'm learning that they have blogs for everything) and was surprised to see that most people were walking by two months and jogging by three to four months! This isn't as horrible as we thought!!!! Of course his job is physically demanding so he MUST take it slow!

Erica,
Hey Girl. This is your favorite LIAR : )
I just read your blog. I can't believe it about your husband. I am so sorry. Maybe it will be nice to spend three months together before he goes back to work. I am glad that you have found a way to continue the nightly walks. Do you have stairs in your home???
Have you started MOPS back at Mag Baptist? Are you going back to The Grove?
I wish we had more time to hang out before I moved. You crack me up.
Great family pictures on Paige's site. I love the one of your husband dipping you with a kiss and the baby sitting in front. Too cute.
Keep in touch!

OK, I just got caught up with your blog. So sorry to hear about Shaun! Looks like you're having a busy summer. Isaac is such a big boy now. He's such a yummy hunk. : )
Take care!
