Wednesday can't come soon enough!

We are counting down our days until Rylee goes for her followup appointment and hopefully gets her cast off! It has been a very long month and we can't wait for it to be over. And if all goes well...we'll hopefully get to go to the beach the weekend after she gets her cast off!

Since it's been pretty hot and she still has her cast on...we've mostly been hanging inside. Here are a few pictures from the last few days.

Rolling over and Prayers

Here in the last little bit Rylee has really adapted to the cast. Today she figured out that she can roll over. Here she is





Then every night before bed we say our prayers. Rylee has memorized them. Here is her version of them.

Look what I can do!

Rylee is definately adapting to her cast. Recently she has wanted to spend more time on her belly since she can reach things better and found out she could do this!




Then here are a few pictures from the last couple days. Big thanks to everyone who has sent cards and packages! Here is Rylee playing with the one she got today!

Happy Mother's Day

Today was a great Mother's Day. Rylee was in a great mood and Makenzie was a sweet girl as always. We actually got to go to church this morning for baby dedication with Makenzie. Jessie and Daniel came and stayed with Rylee and she did great for them! Hopefully things are going to start being better with Rylee and they will stay that way. I have to go back to work tomorrow, so everyone say extra prayers that Rylee and Makenzie are good for my mom. She has someone to help her every day this week though just in case. I'll leave you with the latest pictures from today of the girls.

Adjusting

Today was a much harder day for Rylee. I think today it really set in for her that she couldn't get up and move around the way that she used to. First thing this morning she asked me to "take it off in a minute" referring to her cast. Then later she wanted to get up and put her baby in Makenzie's swing and push her lawn mower. It really breaks my heart that she can't do those things and really look forward to the day that she can. I must admit I really feel for mom's with children with physical limitations. I'm not sure I could do this always and am really glad it isn't permanent! Today wasn't much better pain wise either. Rylee seemed to be in a good deal of pain and dealing with some constipation issues too which made her incredibly grumpy. I'm hoping for a much better day tomorrow.

On a more positive note... we have had a lot of visitors since her accident. I am really thankful for our friends and family and the support that everyone has given us. We are really blessed! Thank you everyone for all you have done!

And since I feel like Makenzie is kinda getting lost in the shuffle with everything going on with Rylee...here are a couple new pictures of her and a few of Rylee adjusting to her new temporary lifestyle.
