Baby Snowboader

When your daddy is an avid adventure sport enthusisat and your Pappa D's lifelong ambition is to hike as many miles day as possible, you learn at an early age to experience extreme sports to the fullest. EB has already staked her claim as the family snowboarding expert. I know in many countries they start children off at an early age playing instruments and learning complex math equations, but our one month old takes the cake with her "snowboard" wrapped in pink ribbon.

On Monday we showed up for EB's third set of casts and the doctor said, " I don't think we need to put anymore casts on her. Let's start the shoes today." YEAH!!! Baby Blaine skipped at least four weeks of casting and probably won't have to have the expected surgery at all. Now in her "dancing shoes" as DB calls them, there are three months of non-stop torture for the little girl as she learns to deal with the heavy confinement.

Our little trooper is adjusting surprisingly well - after crying like never before for about 12 hours, she is dealing with her new wardrobe addition and almost back to her usual, laid back self.

Thanks for your prayers for quick healing - this is a crazy miracle! Don't stop! (See more pictures in album on the left hand column).
