................First day home

We had a great first day home. Zachary is definitely back to himself. He managed to get from the living room to his bedroom and half way back before he couldn't drag himself anymore. He is spending most of his time in the living room playing with his trucks & reading his joke book he got. Typical male with the TV on too. He sat up in the chair with a pillow behind his back for dinner last night. It was nice to sit together as a whole family again and eat.

I was able to get all my home stuff caught up and we even had a visit to school with Zach. We had to bring his supplies in to the nurse and while we were there he got to see his teacher, therapy aid, & classroom aid. He gave them all a small little gift but wouldn't let Mrs. Brazee give him any kisses. He was kinda moody because he thought I was going to make him stay. On our way out he wanted to stop at the gym to see his class. He was so happy his buddy Christian came over and said hi. Thats all he talked about the rest of the day. We came home and a nap was in order. I sure wish I could nap but a moms job is never done. LOL

Then when we got home his buddy Sampson from across the street was out for a walk and he got to see him. That was another highlight for him. He did tell me at first Sampson didn't recognize me mom but once he got closer he knew it was me. How sweet is that? He loves his neighbors doggy.

Last night was the first night with no spike in the fever. He slept all night till about 430 am then was up for the day. He has taken a nap already this am too. The life of a 7 yr old. LOL We go back to Boston on the 25 th of March to xrays, follow up appointment, and they will cut the cast and reline it so he will be able to take it off to get in the tub then back into it. Trust me the 25th can't come quick enough because he keeps picking at this cast and has already tore the goretex lining on the front. Thank god they sent us home with lots of tape to keep it fixed up with.

Well I probably won't be blogging as much again for a bit unless there are changes in Zach or something great comes up to blog about. The next couple weeks are kinda quiet on the calendar for us and I am going to try to enjoy it while it lasts.

I will leave you with 1 phrase Zach keeps saying today "Mom its gorgeous out, just like you" yep he is feeling better. Got to love that little one and the things he comes up with.
