Back To Work

I didn't really do very well keeping up on our blog while I was caring for Jason. The truth is, his recovery has gone so well, and he went back to work this week! His doctor has put him on light duty (paper work & phone calls) until June. (Which is excellent news considering that we were first told that he would be on light duty for possibly a year!) He is adjusting well to working in an office enviroment, although I've been told by the ladies who work with him in the office, that he jumps out of his chair everytime a "Fun Call" is heard on the radio. He just want's to be back in the middle of it all, and they have to remind him that he has to sit at that desk for 3 more months! No running off to "burglary in progress," or "high speed chases" just yet.

The best news came last week after months of waiting that Workman's Compensation will be covering the expenses of the surgery, time off work, and medications! What a relief, and answer to our prayers! When the phone call came, I was jumping up & down in the living room! You can't imagine our excitement!

The boy's are both doing great. Sawyer is excited to be playing baseball this spring on his "Uncle Brad's" little league team. It should be a lot of fun for both him and myself. He loves baseball almost as much as I do! Kayson is growing like a weed! He now is tipping the scales at 22 pounds-and I can't keep him in clothes that fit him to save me! He is only 7 months old, and wearing 12 month old clothes. He is for sure following in his brother's footsteps!

As for me, I have been busy with my Real Estate. It's a great time to buy if you can quailfy, because so many homes are on the market with everyone losing their homes to foreclosure. It's been really nice being able to stay home with the boys, and focus on my business, rather than working in the office, and worrying about every other agent's business. Maybe that's selfish...but I LOVE being home!

During Jason's 3 1/2 months at home with us, we have been able to do a lot of stuff around the house. I think he has painted almost every room in the house now-with exception to our bedroom, which one of these weekends needs to be done! We were also able to spend a few days in St. George & Vegas for Jason's birthday, which was a well needed break from the kids for me. I think I'm going to get used to the idea of him not being around much anymore, but I was spoiled having him home with me for so long! It's going to be an adjustment letting him work those 10 hour shifts again!

Other than that...we are all happy and healthy (with the exception of Sawyer & his ear infection). We are keeping our fingers crossed that this year only brings good things to our family!
