Done with casting?

I can’t believe it’s been over 8 weeks already! We just finished removing Lisa’s final leg casts in preparation for her new set of shoes. We’re excited, but she didn’t like the cast removal this time It seemed to be quite painful for her which was hard on us.

She’s also finally done with eye surgeries. For those that don’t know, she had to have two additional surgeries (making four total - two on each eye) because some scar tissue was in the way of the pupil so her eyes couldn’t dilate. She already has one contact lens in her right eye and she’s happily exploring anything and everything she can. Whe’ll get her other contact lens on Thursday, and then she has an appointment with the county nurse and the early childhood people on Monday. We did a rather unofficial assessment of her development and she’s pretty far behind in a lot of areas so we’re going to learn how we should work with her so she can catch up.

It’s almost time to go get the new shoes, but I’ve got some pictures to share coming very very soon.

    Congrats on Lisa’s news. I hope your party went well. I am up to my eyeballs in homeowork. I have no idea at the moment why I keeping going back to school for more degrees! As soon as I am finished with springs major projects I will be working on a new sleepbag for Lisa. I will have to show Carissa how to finally use her machine:>)

    That’s great and exciting news. May God continue to bless you all and look out for little Lisa as she grows. That’s great that she’s exploring around so much. I’m sure you’ll have your hands full in no time flat, if they’re not already full. Hopefully you find the time for spring cleaning, but I’d let the housework slide for now and just enjoy life as a foursome.
