Dale's back surgery update

Dale went to see Dr. Pensek on Tuesday for his 6 week follow up. Dr. Pensek said he was doing really well and should start physical therapy. He went today for his first PT appointment. He will be going three days a week for 4-6 weeks. Hopefully he will regain alot of the strength in his back soon. Dr. Pensek did increase his weight limit from 5lbs to 30lbs, so he can now technically pick up Connor.

Thank you to everyone that has helped us out of the past couple of months. Having Dale out of commission was very difficult, but made much easier with all your help. A special thanks to everyone that helped move us into our new home, it is so greatly appreciated!!

Home Sweet Home

Home sweet home has changed for us this past weekend. Our new address is 3655 Tulane Dr.
Decatur, IL 62522. I will try to post some pictures once we get connected to the Internet this weekend. The house is so much bigger then our last one and Connor is loving all the space to run and play and all the boxes to nose through. I've been kicking my self for not video taping his reaction when he saw all of his stuff in his new room. It was priceless. Just image, shock, surprise and total confusion on a 1 1/2 year olds face. We are pretty close to some train tracks now and Connor is currently obsessed with "choo, choos". He gets so excited when the trains blows it horn, he stops what he is doing and listens so intently. We are all very excited about the move, and will enjoy it so much more when the other house sells. Dale is loving how new and big the house is, my favorite thing so far is the master bath. I have my own sink. :) I hope everyone is doing well and I will post some pictures soon!!
