The Surgery...

I've waited to post this because I thought I could do it and not get all mushy but never mind. 

Catie had her surgery, it went great. She is working hard with her physical therapy and now it's just a matter of time. Time to see how well she heals, time to wait til she walks on it, time for the incisions to heal, time for mom to get over watching her baby be wheeled into surgery and then wait 3 hours. It was rough but there was a giggle to be had that day. Around the 2 1/2 hour mark it was just Mike and I waiting for Catie to come out of surgery and we were way over the time that the dr thought it would take. So, I am pacing, trying to read, do a little embroidery, text, anything to keep me from loosing my mind. Mike, well Mike decided to try his hand at the circular loom for baby hats we were toting around. You see, we are trying as a family, to get several hats done. Mike had finally reached his breaking point and decided to try it. It was definitely a giggle. He couldn't figure out which way it was going and exactly what are we doing with the yarn. He did about 2 or 3 turn and that was enough. This hat may not make it to be donated. This one may be a keeper.....if we ever get it done. As for Catie, other than feeling way to good for her own good. She is recovering better than we could have hoped for but....time will tell. ;)
