Mr. Wobbly, Sr.

Matt is slowly but steadily recovering from ankle reconstruction. He had a rough start and had to be re-splinted after three days of intense pain and ineffective pain meds, but now he is rockin' his crutches! Honestly, he is still recuperating and moving slow (which warranted calling the grandparents into the picture to help with g&a). Good prognosis at the last check-up: splint removed, removable cast donned (which allows him to do exercises at night and let the skin breathe), and no weight bearing for 2 1/2 more weeks from today. Wonderful news since we were preparing for four more weeks. He started driving and working full days again this week which makes for pudgy toes and a very fatigued good leg at the end of the day. Every day he is able to do a little bit more to help with the twins and furry children, which is fabulous!!!

G&A enjoy reading with Daddy and "Daddy Owie"

I enjoyed the Texas/ OU game immensely, despite our offense not showing up to play. The teams were pretty equally matched which we were not expecting and it made for a very stressful, near-cardiac-arrest-causing four hours. Feel bad for Sam Bradford, wishing him a strong recovery for the rest of his career's sake. Final statement: Texas 16, Oklahoma 13. Go Horns!!!
G&A picked their teams for the day...
