UPDATES

Time just keeps flying by and I keep hearing, "you guys haven't updated your blog forever" so here it is!

Brock's update: We went to Seattle on May 7th and left a little disappointed, or at least I did. He was allowed 100% pressure on his heel, but nothing more. I didn't realize it would be such a gradual process. First he gets pressure on the heel, then the whole foot, then he gets the walking motions (is what we understood from the dr). Each appt is 6 weeks after another, so he'll be back to walking around the beginning of August, at least we think/REALLY hope! He is healing up good, there are just some bones taking a little longer than we would have hoped. Plus, his big toe doesn't have much movement. I yank and pull and do all sorts of physcial therapy stuff that they showed me to do, but it doesnt seem to be budging. I don't know, we'll have to see what he ends up with. Every day I have (or GET) to massage his foot and work on getting his big toe to move a little better. This is always the best after a long hot day. haha, NOT REALLY! :) We go back up to Seattle on June 18th and hope for more improvements to be made! Keep praying for him, it's still not over yet!

We have only 3 weeks left in the quarter and really can't wait for summer! Brock is taking summer classes, so he only has a week off, then starts summer classes. But he gets a month off after summer quarter before fall starts, so that is nice. I am ready for a break! That's for sure!

This past week Brock and I had a slight glance at what it would be like to have children. We babysat Jilayne and Garretts's beautiful girls, Madie, Morgan and Natalie. We only had them for 1 day and 1 night, but wow was that an eye opener. I understand now what moms say about it's a different kind of hard work. It really is! I thought I didn't have any time for myself now, but with children you really don't get time for yourself. It was really fun though. Brock originally wanted 3 kids but he told me he's down to 1 after this past weekend. The funny thing is he wasn't even there all day. He was on the swather for my father all day long (which was actually really nice, he's making money again!). Getting everyone ready for church on sunday was a joke! I thought 2 hrs would be enough to get everyone ready, NOPE! haha. By the way, sorry about the messy house Jilayne! I guess it really was the best birth control we could possibly get. haha.
