FREEDOM!!!


Van got his cast off yesterday. I only have a couple of pictures of the cast, none of him yet. Janna has a couple she can post later. Everything looks good and the bone is healing well. I have copies of the x-rays but can't upload Adobe files to Blogger, so trust me that it was definitely broken and has healed.

Van is great. He is almost always pleasant so there is no change there. He is easier to carry now, has his little carseat again, and is way faster crawling. Last night he was in the other room on top of the laptop in about 30 seconds. He is using his right leg to push off of as if he always was. We'll have to put up some video of him crawling for his cousins and family to see. Not a lot of our extended family has met him since we have only taken him out of state to Utah at Thanksgiving. This summer he will get to experience Newport Beach and how to eat sand.

Congrats on getting the monstrosity off! And did I hear Newport Beach?? As in California? Are you getting the hint yet? :)

Hope everything is going well!

I'm so happy for him to be out of the cast. He sounds like the happiest kid. Wish we could meet him. Your pictures are all great. Great photography.
Rebecca likes the picture of "Stone eating corn on the cob naked."

Can't wait for Newport Beach, it could not come any sooner. I am glad that his cast is off.

Bless his heart, I'm glad he's free. Hey Luke, are you by any chance related to a Travis Lee who lives in Northern Virginia. A red head with the last name Lee made me think of it.
