So, we're moving along this week. Dylan is doing really well. The cast only slows him down a very little bit. He needs help with fine motor stuff because he just has the one hand but other than that he's busy as ever.
I have a few pictures of our activities this week. It was a slow week for that. Just before Dylan's injury we had done a "reading party". I set our tent up inside and we filled it with pillows and blankets and books and just hung out in there for a while.
It was nice for a bit but they were still a bit too cabin fevered to sit for very long. So - they left one by one and the next thing you knew I was in there by myself and it felt heavenly so I grabbed my book and tried to get a page or two in before they noticed and needed me for something :)
Last night we found the 'breakfast for dinner' idea on the activity list. It was a good one for these parents who have had a bit of a long week already. And since it's not as unusual as it should be for us to do waffles or pancakes for supper, even cereal when I'm really desperate, Justin picked up something the kids have never had before - poptarts. I cringed only a little and we passed them out.
Liam was not a fan so he chose cheerios for his supper. I don't even know if he tried the poptart! He's pretty skeptical of anything new. Likes to stick with what he knows.
We were pretty glad to see the sun come out after such a long rainy spell so have been outside most of the past couple of days. Caden was finally able to have his soccer again last night and did really well. He's improving a lot these days. Dylan, Evan and Liam's soccer resumes tonight (unless we really do get the thundershowers that they are forecasting - seriously!?) and then it's a long weekend for us. Glad to see this week coming to an end!
