First of all thank you to everyone that prayed for us last week while Darlene had her surgery. Everything went great. Darlene is doing well. Still a little sore sometimes, but hopefully on the fast track of recovering! Last time it was arthroscopic procedure. This time it was actually an incision. So there is more healing time needed now.
The hardest thing now is Darlene being around the kids when she can't pick them up for a few weeks yet. It is killing her that she can't pick up an hold her babies. She does as much as she can, bathing, changing, feeding. So she is at least getting some good time with them. But it isn't the same. She plans on being able to persuade the Dr. when she goes in for her check up to ease up on the lifting restrictions. Nothing over 10lbs currently. Violet is at 15lbs and Ryan at 18lbs! They get so big, so fast.
