Hi Steph,
My knee is doing pretty good, thanks for asking... it swells up a bit after a long day of walking around Disneyland, but that's something I'm willing to deal with. Actually, I am out of pain which is what I was hoping for... I still can't use it to go up or down stairs, but I can live with that... the only downside to that is that I am unable to go on the Nemo Sub ride as the stairs are VERY steep... but I don't mind... it gives me some "pouting" privileges with my family.
I'm glad to hear that your knee is better!!!
Getting a little older is one of the reasons dh & I wanted our bedroom downstairs this time.
Right now our bedroom is upstairs and since I have had arthritis in my right kneee for quite a few years I can see this being a problem by the time I am mid fities!
On a brighter note...
My DSIL is on his way home next month! WE are all so happy to know he will be arriving sometime during the second week in February. Lily will be almost 10 months old by then.
I am very excited for him to see her as she has changed and grown so much. She was only 12 weeks old when he left... she will be almost 10 months old when he arrives! She is now crawling, has 4 teeth and is in a size 18 - 24 months in clothes!.. I only hope she will recognize him when she sees him for the first time... Before he left he recorded himself talking to her and reading several books to her. She watches this DVD EVERY night before bed and Brandy had a "daddy" doll made of Steve in his uniform so she could get used to what he will look like when he arrives.
The DVD and doll are such a cute idea!!! When my dad was in Vietnam (67/68) we all kissed his picture every night --- I am the oldest (I was 5/6) and the youngest was 1 1/2 when he left, with a couple in between.
Even though I was 6 when he came home and only 5 when he left.... I didn't reconize him at the airport! LOL! I remember wondering who that man was my Grandma was hugging! I'm a little slow!
