Legs and Cheeks

Did that title get your attention?!? Actually, this post is an update on Alex's leg, and a note about an injury Aurora incurred today!

First, we had a followup with Alex's orthopedic surgeon today. He's doing great! His limp is almost gone and he is pretty much back to normal. Here is a comparison of his leg the day of the accident and today. We don't need to go back for 6 months!



Then,
Aurora injured herself at school today. Apparently she was running and fell into the corner of a playhouse! Ouch! She has a mark from her cheek all the way up past her eye. I bet it will be bruised by tomorrow. I wondered what the doctors thought today while I was in there with my son recovering from a broken leg and my daughter's face all beaten up - yikes! Here is a picture of Aurora's face.
