Casey is growing so fast. We finally moved from the baby car seat to the forward facing seat. She is SOOOO much happier. She will actually chill out and sleep in her new seat. She is able to use the DVD player now too. Her and Tim watched one of her videos on her first …
Tim is finally starting to feel a lot better. He is still taking some pain pills, but much less than before. He is able to walk some and stays awake downstairs most of the day now. The only bad side is that he is also starting to get very stir crazy. We went out yesterday …
