So Joe's surgery on the 11th is fast approaching, and this new year of 2011 is already going a mile a minute and too fast for me! He is supposed to go in on January 11th at 5:30am and I am not sure how long the procedure will take. They are going to cut the injured ligaments and shorten them, so that they can be tighter (or at least that's how it was explained to me!). Joe will be in a cast for about 4 weeks with a little bit of physical therapy afterward. Hopefully he'll be running and back in tip top shape in no time!
My Aunt MaryWinn passed away Saturday morning. Please pray for her family- her husband, her 3 children and their spouses and children. She was my grandmother's 2nd oldest sister and fought a long hard battle with her health. Those who were with her said she passed peacefully which is all we can really ask for I think.
Audra is having a great time with Joe since he's been on leave. She's reaching for him, asking for him when he walks into the room "da da!!" and associates him completely with playtime. I'm chopped liver compared to daddy(lol). We're still barely doing solids once a week, since she isn't really into them. We're letting her take her time with them, it's her choice. So she's still almost entirely exclusively breastfeeding, which is still just fine with me :)
I'm starting school here again shortly, however I'll be only part time right now since our big move is in May. Between Audra and planning a move over 4000 miles it's plenty on my plate without school, so I'm taking it easy. Audra is a full time job and I love it!
