FALL UPDATE

Dad is feeling much better today. He went to his Heart Dr. appt. who, by the way, thinks he is doing wonderfully well! We like that kind of news. Dad was able to walk today without much problem but for safety sake he used his walker most of the time. He is still a bit sore but that is to be expected. I don't remember if I have blogged about this yet or not but Mom has a pretty significant hairline fracture in her foot--almost to the point of a clean break. She is supposed to stay off of it (yah right) but neither of us know how she would do that. This one is enough of a break that it gives her quite a bit of pain when she smarts off to it. There are days when she does pretty well staying off of it and the swelling goes down and she hurts less but other days she really pays for it. She is going to see a podiatrist on Monday to see if there is anything else she can do for it. Hopefully, there is. I took the kids to a playgroup again today and they had a blast. The blast for me was not only did they have fun but they wore themselves out! Yay! Got them home and they took excellent naps. One of my neighbor's watched them for a bit tonight so Rob and I could escape and go out to dinner. That was nice. Then Susan, Russ and Alyssa came up and visited Mom and Dad and brought Jonathon a birthday present. She got him a cowboy hat and sewed him a cute costume vest from one of the Toy Story characters. He loved it. I will get a picture of him in it and put it on here. Well, that's about it for the day. Take care.
