Foot - Addie is doing much better on her "boot" cast. I really wasn't sure if she would ever get used to the thing and thought she was going to be crawling for the next 6 weeks, but after about 3 or 4 days she finally put pressure on it. After about 5 or 6 days, she was walking pretty regularly. I think she still had a bit of pain but we alternated Tylenol and Motrin and both seemed to help.
On the 7th, we had a follow up appointment with a specialist in Columbia for another X-ray. Although Addie wasn't thrilled with another "giant camera", she did relatively well and they were able to get a few pics. The doc advised us to keep the cast on for about 6 weeks and "take it easy".... Yeah... easier said than done with a 3-year old!! ha ha
Happy Birthday Addie! On the 5th, we had a big bash at Chuck E. Cheese's in Springfield. We had a great turnout with all of our friends and family. Addison had a smile from ear to ear the entire day. On Tuesday (her actual birthday), we headed to the doctor for a follow up on her foot. After her appointment, I felt awful for putting her through yet another X-ray and caved when she asked to go back to Chuck E. Cheese. We were one of only 4 customers in the whole resturant! It was great because Addie and one other little girl had the place to themselves! Spoiled? YES... Worth it? ABSOLUTELY! ;) That night, we ate cupcakes with Daddy, Cooper and Nana. It was a great birthday :)
All about Cooper
Vocab -
"Thank you"- sounds more like "dee-dee" and can vary from time to time.
"HI Addie" - sounds more like "AHHHH-Ah-Eeeee". When she comes into the room he gets very excited!
Crawling on knees - Cooper has started switching from crawling on his belly to his knees. He is one FAST crawler!
Walking - Not yet, but he does experiment with pulling himself up on furniture more. He "cruises" by holding on to the couch as he walks along the furniture.
Pretend Sneezing - If we sneeze or even pretend sneeze, Cooper will mock us.
