Not-so-lucky St. Patrick's Day


I thought we did everything right. We started our St. Patrick's Day off with Lucky Charms and lots of green clothing. (Well, Barry forgot but he pinned some broccoli to his shirt!) Not only did we fail to find a pot of gold that day, but C.J. somehow broke his leg at the sitter's. 

We thought it was a sprained ankle or toe, and when he still wouldn't put any weight on his leg the next day, Barry took him to the doctor. Turns out he broke both bones in his lower leg. He was a brave little trooper and is getting used to his cast. He can even crawl around a bit. Hopefully he won't have too many more broken bones in his lifetime!

Curtains at last!

I bought this material almost a year ago but just barely got around to turning it into curtains for C.J.'s room. While Barry worked on screwing the brackets to the wall, C.J. had his own task of holding the curtain rod.  Here Barry is tickling his back with the hammer. 

Also of importance in this photo are C.J.'s new "choo-choo" slippers, a gift from a neighbor. He LOVES them. We have officially entered the realm of Thomas the Train.
