We made it home to South Dakota very early on Saturday morning after an extremely early-season Colorado blizzard. Thank you to everyone who was able to attend Katie's funeral and for all the prayers from around the world. It was a wonderful tribute to Katie's life.
The boys are doing good. Clark remains in his full cast for another two weeks but the doctors are now confident he will not need surgery. His radial bone is angled 10 deg in one direction and 24 deg in another, but the doctor said that at his age it will correct about 10 deg per year. Quinn's checkup went well also. He has already surpassed his birth weight and is up to 8 lbs 6 oz and is back to 22in long (he shrank 2in at his 1 week appointment...they just don't stretch like they used to :) Lastly, a very special thank you to the folks at USAFA Ortho, Peds, and X-Ray who blessed us once again by staying open just for us in the blizzard to see the boys...blessings never cease!
One final note, I will have pictures updated as soon as my laptop cord arrives from Italy (forgot that one, as if I had other things on my mind)...thanks Lisa.
We can never say thank you enough for the outpouring of love and support we are receiving from our friends and family. It is truly an honor to see how many people Katie touched in her life. Thank you! The Three Boys
