Party

There was a party at the church to welcome home Andrew and Nathan and Baby Girl Graffius yet to be born. We had a covered dish after church and the men even got to come. They were disappointed they didn't get to play games.This a picture of some of the decorations which Aunt Cindi and the social committee put together.


Anthony helping to open his soon to be sisters presents.



Becky and I also doing the honors. This is not a party picture but I thought I would show off my lovely aircast. I had physical therapy for the first time today. I have been given permission to take the boys swimming as long as I wear the lovely aircast. I hope to back to normal soon.

Klutz

Yes I am a klutz. Yesterday morning about 6:30AM I fell down my steps with Aaron in my arms. Aaron is just fine. I didn't care what happened as long as I fell backwards instead of foreword. As a result I am wearing an Aircast for a very severely sprained ankle that came with popping sounds and the inability for a while to put any weight on it. So thankfully my husband was home and after as he puts it a thump, thump, cry and Perry help. He came running. He took me to the emergency room and Dad and Mom watched Aaron (we took Andrew). It is sure a hard way to get a rest. Today I have the boys and discovered my ankle is not as good as I thought it was after a day of rest. Thankfully my mom has taken the boys to swimming lessons and my foot is propped up as I type this and is throbbing less as we speak.

On a happier note we were supposed to go out dinner with Aunt Cindi and Uncle Jim but due to the accident we had to stay in. This turned out to be a wonderful evening. Aunt Cindi cooked and Uncle Jim grilled steaks to die for and we had a great meal in and we then had a fun evening of playing WordBlind. Lots of fun thanks everyone who made it possible including the parents who watched the boys.

Warm Weather

Anything you can do I can do is Aaron's philosophy. The boys had a great time playing at the local playground. The weather made it to almost 60 today earlier this week it wasn't quite as warm but still nice., Andrew enjoying running.
Posing for mom.



Aaron trying to go the wrong way up the slide. Why is it that boys want to do everything backwards. Sometimes assuming sometimes scary for mom as see decides where the boundary is.

Some Getting Adjusted Photos

This is Aaron's first sled riding pictures. He liked it but preferred to walk around with it. Andrew wasn't convinced and at first didn't like the idea of boots. Now he loves them and wants to wear them all the time. Andrew helping with laundry sort of...
He and Aaron both love this music book and Andrew sings Deep and Wide, Jesus Loves Me and Head and Shoulders.


Sometimes we are happier than others.



Andrew feeding Aaron.
