Yer dad is going in for surgery on his shoulder Monday morning sometime. They are hoping to regain some of his mobility lost with his frozen shoulder, and maybe get a better idea of any problems that maybe be causing it... He will start physical therapy afterwards. If you can believe it, this will be his first trip to a surgical center for himself. (LIES! LIES! I had my nose worked on once!) In the past, they have all been for me. Not as good a record as Pres Hinckleys never being a patient in a hospital until he was 96...but still a record a whole lot better than mine!

"scope" and manipulation (i.e. he's gonna make 3 small cuts and do some work through there then move my arm and rip open all the adhesive capsulitis). In/out same day surgery. He's also going to grind down one bone he didn't like the looks of in the MRI. My shoulder has been in pain for so long, I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

And I'll STILL not be a patient in a hospital since it is being done in an outpatient clinic.

I'm with dad-- I don't think it will be that big of a deal. Good luck though.

I sure hope it goes well. Grandpa is also going in on Wed next week for an eye operation to fix his droopy eyelids..so we'll just play general hospital. I'll drive the ambulance, Cambrie, you can come and play nurse, Brigham can be the Dr, and I am sure we will need a CNA for the Bedpans Buffalo...so I HOPE YOU CAN ALL MAKE IT!

THIS GUY   has to be having a hard time right now in Utah trying to make a name for himself and selling his music given that THIS GUY has quite a musical history too and has more press coverage.   Some people are just born to have bad luck.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
