David had surgery on Monday to remove a steel plate, 9 screws, and some wires from his ankle. All of this hardware was put there 9 years ago after a 4-wheeler accident. He is still having some pain and LOTS of swelling... and he will not be able to put weight on it or drive until further notice. He is going crazy with boredom at home, so feel free to call him or go by for a visit (if you live in this state :) ) I wouldn't know what to do without my mother-in-law during this past week - she has cooked, cleaned, babysat, done laundry, and taken care of Dave during the day while I've been at work. So far this week we have had lasagna, pork chops, and chili, and Dave has had soups, subs and salads every day for lunch. Barbara even came over last night to put away Cadence's laundry and watch her for me while I helped Dave take a shower (quite an ordeal with one good leg). My Mumsie also kept Cadence for me Sunday night, Monday, Monday night, and Tuesday so that I could go with Dave to the hospital and get him situated at home after the surgery - she's a good one too!
Cadence and I are doing well - she doesn't like to see Daddy's ankle unwrapped, but other than that she is great. My mom, "Nana", and Mumsie have taken her to the Southern Women's Show today and from what I hear - she is having a blast. I am 16 wks pregnant today, and have been feeling the baby "flutter" for a few days now... it feels so strange, and so exciting at the same time. My headaches are doing much better thanks to my OB allowing me to take 800mg of Ibuprofen - THANK YOU!
Not much else to tell - I'm so glad that it's the weekend! I'm going to do some cleaning tomorrow and see if Dave wants to get out of the house for a little while. Hope everyone is doing well!
