HAPPY SUNDAY!!!

Just wanted to stop in and say, "HEY!!" Enjoying this beautiful sunny spring day, wrapping up Doug's birthday celebration. Today is Doug and Joseph's birthdays, but Joseph couldn't come home this weekend, so we celebrated Thursday before Easter with most of the family and Easter Sunday with Ginnie and her family. Today, it's just Doug, Jessica and me for Pizza Inn and ice cream cake! I don't really like celebrating that early, but with so many schedules and living a few hours apart, it was the best we could manage this year.

OT - Doug has been able to shed his sling and is to be working on range of motion exercises. If all goes well, the surgeon said he won't need PT and may be able to return to work the end of April/first part of May! He isn't to lift more than 2 pounds with that arm - and, since he FEELS like Superman, NOW is the time we're REALLY having to watch him like a hawk! "Is that less than 2-lb? Didn't think so!" :lol:

(BAD MOM that I am, I failed to recognize Hershey's 11th birthday on March 1st. :sad: )

Hershey is doing GREAT!! When last we posted (3/12, I believe), he was up to 1u. Since then, we've seen a few 40's and a few in the 30's. We didn't want to rush home from Ginnie's on Easter, so we delayed his PM shot. We were almost back on schedule when we mis-set the alarm clock (4/5). Ugh! Hopefully, we'll be back on schedule Thursday. He's been able to shave .9u - .8u - .7u - .6u and as of this morning, we're trying .5u. (.5u) hasn't worked in a while, so we're pretty excited that it's even a possibility, again! All P's in place and good numbers, so YAY!!!

Thanks for coming by!! Have a great day; I'll try to get by to visit if I don't pass out from a food coma after ice cream cake!

Libby (& Hershey, too!)

OT - Here's a new picture of Sammy. Can hardly believe he's 6 months old already!

Happy Birthday to everyone!

Hershey's SS is looking good. I'm glad to hear Doug is recuperating. It seems like all is well with your family which is great news.

Hey, Sienne and Rhiannon - Good to see y'all! Thanks for the birthday wishes and well-wishes on the reduction. :-D

Happy B-Day to Doug and Joseph!

Great news on "No PT"!
Two pounds, huh? OK, then... Doug, you are allowed to eat 2lbs of pizza and cake!

Hersh is looking fantastic, Libby. :-D And beautiful pic of Sammy!

Great to hear from you,

Carl and the boyz

p.s. It's nearly "turtle time" !

Hey, Carl - Great to see you! :lol: I'll pass along the 2-lb = 2-lb of food theory to Doug! He's had all kinds of explanations when I catch him with more than two pounds - like, "I'm lifting with my left arm and just balancing with my right." or "I'm actually using my legs!" uh. huh.

Thanks for the kind words about Hershey and Sammy, too. Bummer on them moving :30 farther away, but since she'll be working at the church instead of teaching, her hours are more flexible, so we can still go when Doug is off.

You, sir, have said the magic words - Jessica's eyes lit up when I read it to her!! Guess she'll be scoping out kitty-friendly hotels 'nearby.' :-D

Happy Birthday to Doug! And Sammy is 6 mths old! Seems like last week that you wrote about waiting outside the delivery room :lol: :lol: Cant believe we are 6 mths older too!
You're good mum to Hershey, dont blame yourself for forgetting his birthday, Libby. And 0.5u! That's great!

Hey, Helen - Good to see you. Thanks for the birthday wishes for Doug. I know, time just flies by! Some days I'm feeling that 6 months older, too! Thanks for the encouragement, too. I trust all is well with you and hope to get by to see you tonight.
