Well we went to the hospital yesterday for Billy's pre-admission tour. We met a really nice lady named Crystal who led us around (like we haven't been there before). All Billy really seemed to care about were the bubble guns in her office and the Foozball table in the playroom on the ward where we'll be staying while he's in. Even though he really didn't care about the tour, I think this is all starting to sink in with him. She showed him a doll with a fixator on and he asked Why the Metal Pins were going into the dolls leg. so we got the lovely task of explaining that the pins were going to go into his leg also.....I think he's getting it but I am not really sure. He's been throwing a lot more temper tantrums and having more potty accidents lately. I'm hoping its just anxiety and not another of his bad behavioral phases. We have unfortunately had to stop his anti-inflammatory medicine because it can slow bone growth. So maybe this is all just pain from his knee. It was a very long car ride.....It's definitely going to take some getting used to going up there every week.
Last Friday was my last day at work, but now I'm looking at going back to my job at the real estate office a couple days a week, just to help out around here with the bills.
We got Billy's pictures taken on Sunday. They turned out really cute. So far they aren't available online, I'm hoping I'll get them in the next few days. There are a couple of shots that will definitely be blackmail pictures when he gets older. The lady who took the pictures was really good. She actually let Billy be himself and captured the "real" him in the pics.
I think thats about it that's going on in our lives right now! Oh, I got new glasses ordered today! I'll post pictures when I actually get them in!
