I'm just using them as bombs.

Here is another funny Colin story.

The other day I hear Brian say "does mom know what you are doing?"

Colin walks over to me and in his hand he was holding a tampon. I told him that those were not his to play with and he said that he was just using them as bombs.

I have to admit I thought it was really cute and imaginative. I was surprised that he didn't throw a fit when we had to empty the "bombs" out of both of his pockets.

It all comes out

Austin had surgery yesterday to get his "hardware" taken out of his leg. I was so impressed with him, he wasn't even nervous. I think he was just so excited to get it out. Especially the plate in his knee that a tendon was rubbing over. His leg is now very strait and aligned and we get a break from surgeries for a few more years.

Austin before the surgery.

We were stuck in this little room for 3 hours because the surgery before Austin's took longer then expected- so Brian decided to entertain us.


Austin after surgery. He's still a little out of it.


Here's his full leg bandage. He keeps this on until Friday.


Here are the screws and plate that were in his knee.

Here is the screw that was in his ankle.

Austin is doing great and is already getting bored from just sitting around. I'm sure he'll be up and around in no time.
