Today I had my shoulder surgery. It went well I'm still out of it. I can't feel my arm at all, it's such a strange feeling. Joe got to stay for almost two weeks to help me with the kids.

What a fun day. I am OK. Not sure about my car. The driver of the red car when to the hospital with chest pains. The driver of the black car was flying in what she believed to be the turn lane. It really was a yellow stripped area leading from one left turn lane to another left turn lane, if you are going north. She was going to left some where up the road, except she was going south. I was entering the turn lane from my office to wait for a clear lane to turn into.

Today James fell and hit his head on a corner. It scared me so much!! It looked horrible. in this picture it had already gone down a lot. I went to the ER. I wanted to make sure he was ok this is his first bump. Not looking forward to any more.

Annie & Shelby did a great job of cleaning all of the sap and dirt off of our camper, to get it ready for camping tomorrow!
Colleen August 3, 2010
I saw this and thought it was interesting that the water droplets are so evenly spaced.

Another mammogram/ultrasound today. I'm glad that they are aggressively checking the mass that they thought they saw about 3 or 4 mammograms ago. But... I now know my way around the radiology suites at Dreyer Mercy campus

Aunt Colleen came to visit. She brought 2 sets of matching outfits for Madi and Lilli, some diapers, and other goodies - including the gecko that Madi is holding. That was so thoughtful. Thanks for everything! Nikki is planning to do a photo session with the girls in their matching outfits.

We headed home from D.C. today after a stop in West Virginia. We planned a surprise stop for Cole and Stephen. We went tubing down the Potomac river. We rented inflatable tubes and floated downstream through the rapids. Pictures will have to come later as we used a disposable waterproof camera. The river must have been lower than usual because the web site said that the trip should take about 1.5-2.5 hours and it took us 4 hours. We had to use our arms to paddle most of it, we were pretty miserable when we finally reached the take out point. The boys soon crashed after we ate dinner.

Waiting backstage, before I bring her back to the orphanage. It was so cute that Miss Hannigan was Annie's mom in real life, too.

The National Cathedral. Then we took a break at the hotel for a swim and dinner.
