Not sure if you've heard, but I finally got rid of those stupid casts this week! Very excited about that. Right after Nurse Robin sawed 'em off up went my legs and I couldn't stop staring at my toes. It's been awhile since I've seen those & man, DID THEY STINK! Mom tried to hold back the coughs and tears, but even I have to admit they were pretty rank.
Now, don't be too judgey about my skinny legs. I promise you in no time I'll have them up to par with my guns and the 6 pack abs I'm working on.
Speaking of the workouts, so after I got my casts off we went straight to get my new kicks. You can tell from the last picture how excited I am to have them. You would think, after all I've been thru, that someone would cut me some slack. Give a kid just a small rest to hang out, grab some toes, maybe try rolling over on my own (I totally rolled over with the casts on Monday btw!) But no, let's slap on some 1950's white shoes with a super cool (not really) purple bar. I am trying to adjust, but it hasn't been easy. By Sunday it'll be old news- and as an added bonus, the guy at the shoe store told Mom that most kids who wear these turn out to be really good snowboarders. I think he's kidding, but not sure.
It's been a long week- going to hang out and watch the Big Ten tournament this weekend.
Go Bucky!

PS- I have to wear the shoes 24/7 until I start to walk, then night/naps until I start school. At least that's "ballpark"- keep your fingers crossed it's less.
What a little trooper! He takes it all in stride like a champ!
