You might notice a theme....

Can you figure out what we've been doing for the past week?


Pay attention to Frankie's hair twirling; it's a weird new habit he's developed since breaking his leg. I originally thought it was a side effect of being all drugged up, but he's hardly taking any of the good stuff these days and he still does it.


Not so happy.


Yes, the baby is wearing a bib. She's turning into a DROOLING MONSTER.


And with the hair again.


They don't quite feel the same way about this sibling bonding time.


Whatever keeps her happy, right?


Football!

And somewhere between the last picture of Frankie and this picture of Frankie, he got a haircut. After combing out the tangles from Frankie's days of lying on his back, it was decided that a new style was in order. Due to Juston's lack of talent with the clippers and a three-year-old's general inability to tolerate getting a haircut, Frankie ended up with a sweet 90's hairstyle, complete with 'shaved underneath' all the way around and long on top. It actually looks really good and all he needs now is a flannel shirt and a pair of Girbauds to go with his skateboard and complete the amazing throwback.


And again....


(They are holding hands in this picture. Altogether now with the 'awwwww.')



To be fair, Frankie asks to 'see' Harper multiple times a day (exact words are "let me see her"), which means he wants to hold her. She tolerates it well until he starts petting her head, smacking her belly, or generally just being an obnoxious older brother. Today the orthopedist said that Frankie's femur is healing up well and we go back in four weeks for either a cast removal or the opportunity to go back and pay another co-pay if he's not quite healed yet.

The hair really is quite cute and if you could see what my pre-teens are wearing these days, he totally fits right in!=0)

Frankie seems so pleasant for being in a half cast. Tough kid!

I nominated you for one of those blog awards cause, ya know, I'm totally your blog stalker.

Oh, poor Frankie! And poor you! Hope the next few weeks in the cast pass quickly.

We loved Amicalola Falls. We took many Sunday afternoon exploring trips up in that area. We never spent the night there though, and it looks like we missed out!
