Snow Way... He's Walking?!

YES WAY! He is...

If you had asked us Sunday morning if we thought we'd have a little boy who'd be toddling all over the house again by that afternoon we'd have told you...

SNOW WAY!!!

But, it seems that Caden had a big surprise on his hands! And thank the good Lord because Justin and I were really down about it. It was so hard seeing him in such obvious pain and discomfort. It seemed as though he was making no progress! It was hard not to be able to do ANYTHING for him. And it was also hard to remind ourselves that we had to trust our gut's, even if the doctor said that what we thought happened was wrong. We were the ones watching him 24/7 and we had to believe that Caden's situation was atypical and that he DID in fact sprain his ankle even if toddlers don't typically sprain things! Once we could wrap our minds around thatand do some research on the web that confirmed our suspicions we began to more easily accept the slower progress remembering our own experiences growing up with sprained ankles.

And since Sunday afternoon's HUGE improvement, Caden has continued to do well. He is still walking with a limp and has to sit down for a few breaks every now and then, but overall he is doing great and we are so thankful! 

In fact he is doing well enough that we adventured out into the beautiful white SNOW this morning! Snow in Round Rock... SNOW way?! All of you sweet North/West Texas friends of ours decided to finally share the love!

The snow was coming down so hard that unfortunately it wasn't super enjoyable for Caden! We were wet really fast and Caden wasn't too much a fan of putting his hands in the cold, wet snow to push himself back up when he'd crash! Haha!

We're hoping it will stop snowing enough later that we can get out and play in it without having to worry about wet stuff falling from the sky! It doesn't snow often here so regardless of the conditions I knew we had to get out and play!

Maybe we'll have more pictures to share later today...

Until then... stay warm!
