Noah got his pediatric wheelchair and has become quite the expert at maneuvering it around the house.   I can also tell his leg is feeling better because we’ve caught him twice on the floor (from the wheelchair or the couch) trying to “move around” to get to something that dropped on the floor.  He’s taking the whole thing in stride.  He’s an incredible little boy.

Things got much easier once my mom mentioned that we didn’t have to carry him to the toilet every time he had to go pee.   Seems I forgot that he was a boy and had a penis which means he can pee into a cup.   Still requires mommy’s help, but much easier to accomplish then lifting him all over the place.    He’s only 44 lbs, but he’s a solid 44 lbs and with the splint, he’s quite heavy.    And of course, we have to make sure the leg stays immobilized.


Is there nothing sweeter then a sleeping child?   

Friday we are going to get the cast.  His leg is quite swollen still.  Or at least it was last night.  I had hoped to get this waterproof cast.  But I spoke to the doctor’s office today and they didn’t sound to keen to it.   Maybe I still talk them into it… we’ll see.  

John’s temp is still fluctuating daily.   He’s been back to the General Practitioner who is going to refer him to an infectious disease doctor to try to sort everything out.    

Today we went and saw a kiddie band in the park called the Brian Waite Band.   It was good to get out and get Noah away from the Game Cube for awhile.   They have great music for kids.  I highly recommend their CD for the under 7 set.   Very pro self-esteem and not too annoying.    Beats the Wiggles hands down.  


You can see how much my daughter Dinara enjoyed them!
