Freedom!




The cast is gone! Actually, it's been gone for over a week and it already seems like a distant memory. Getting the cast off was definitely more traumatic than getting it on. For some reason Anna wasn't convinced that the scary, circular saw that sounded like a jet-engine wasn't going to hurt and I can't blame her. At one point Todd was holding her down while the doctor was cutting the cast and Anna looked at me red-faced, tears-streaming and yelled "Mommy let me FREE!" at the top of her lungs. It was heart-breaking but now it's over. Phew.

Edie is a busy little explorer and is currently trying to figure out how to stand up. Oh, and it turns out that she does love food! It just has to be something that we would eat. In other words: anything but baby food!

Nana came to town last week, spending the first half of her visit at Emily's and the second half with us. Todd was out of town for work so it was really helpful having mom around. We miss her already!
