We are home from the hospital. Jake officially is without a cast. Yeah! He was such a good boy throughout the waiting around this morning, the operating room, and in recovery. The nurses and doctors took good care of him. He was all snuggly when I came back to see him in the recovery room. We sat in the rocking chair and watched cartoons, ate Popsicles, and drank some juice. He did not want anyone to look at or move his leg. They said it would be pretty tender for some time. The doctor said Jake would start walking on it when he felt comfortable. It could be later today, or it could be in a few days. He said to keep Jake off anything he could fall down from. The playground will have to wait. There is always the chance that he could hurt it again, so we will do all that we can to prevent that from happening. He is not going back to daycare full time until the first day of school. Grandma Knutson is going to watch him when I have to be back at workshops. I know Jake is looking forward to being at Cheryl's, but we want to sure he is completely healed before it is back to running around playing with his friends.
We will see how today goes. We are off to the zoo with a friend tomorrow. I cannot wait to get out of the house with him like we used to do. Maybe we will do a little swimming this weekend, too. It is supposed to be nice and warm :)
