Lots of catching up!

Happy Easter! Life has been hectic around here, as can be imagined and I've missed everyone's blogs. I hope that I can get back into the swing of things as things start to calm down around here. Thanks for all your prayers and nice comments. My heart smiled every time I read one. We have a lot to be thankful for and here's just a few:
1. Daddy Day Care (aka "the office") Kirt is going into work now, shortened hours, but it gives me some time to do other things! Like take care of taxes..done! Yeah!
2. Grandkids are doing great, and the youngest one is the best little baby. Makes me feel better since I wasn't able to help my daughter like I planned. I'm glad the baby is doing so well, making it easier on her.
3. I see sewing time coming back! Yeah! I did get a quickie baby quilt done for the little Liam and worked on a challenge quilt (more later.)
Here's Kirt--enjoying the beautiful Easter day. Still in the scooter (what a G0d send that has been to him AND me!) for a while longer. But he is able to get around pretty well now. It surprises most people that he is sitting and moving around with all his fractures. Especially of the pelvis and hip. But it's the weight bearing on his leg he cannot do.
What a beautiful day for hunting for Easter eggs! Grandkids are the best, aren't they?

Liam missed all the fun! But he was a good boy today and we actually got to see his eyes today as he decided to stay awake for a bit. But we missed it with the camera. Oh well, another day.

Well, hooray for scooters - that was a good idea. And, glad to hear that DH is getting back to his normal routines, a sure sign that he is on the mend. Cute grandkids - I was just looking at my Little Guy's baby photos and can't believe how much he has grown in just under 3 years. Time flys!!!

Cheers!

Karen, welcome back to bloggerland. Good to hear that your husband is doing as well as expected and even back to work in spite of those injuries he suffered. You better believe we have been wondering how you both were holding up.

What adorable grandchildren and look how much bigger little Liam is in just a few weeks time.

Karen, we have all been wondering about you. So glad things are settling down a bit and a routine is being established. It is so so good to see Kirk up in the scooter, a bit of independance for him! Wonderful.
