Trip cont.

Wed. We played with the boys. They are great hockey players, even Caleb. Ethan can do anything on skates. Tyler is not far behind. Caleb wears like a Fisher Price skate and has a hockey stick. He takes the puck and "skates" down the alley and back up. He throws his arms up and yells I "core". Then he wants to fight. He puts his stick down and puts up his fists, one or both boys comes over and roughs him up. Then he puts himself in the penalty box. We laugh so hard. He mimicks anything he sees. We all have to be careful but esp. the boys. I also made a dress for Hannah. She and Jared had a Daddy/Daughter date at school. It had a Hawaiian theme. I picked out a floral pattern that she really liked. Melanie has pictures on her blog. Thurs. we saw Maddie for a few minutes. They moved her out of icu a day earlier than what they thought. Fri. we saw Maddie for a few minutes, she is looking so much better. She walks the halls. We took the boys and Noah to a movie. We saw Mall Cop. It was pretty funny, they show alot of the funny parts in the previews. Sat. I ran a few errands. Dad started tiling Jared and Melanies bathroom. Sun. The hospital said Sat that Maddie might come home today and then changed their minds because she had some minor issuses. But then Sunday a.m. they said she could come home! We went to church and Maddie got home about 5ish. She was a little nervous at first but then felt better, enjoying the normalcy of home. She walked a little, played the piano and enjoyed the comfortable bed. Mon. Melanie took Ethan and Tyler with hers to the Desert Museum and on a short hike. Maddie had some company. We hung out and helped where we could. Alot of laughing goes on with Caleb, he is so cute and funny. If I show up w/o Grandpa he wants to know where "ganpa bean" is. The pictures are not working yet but I will post asap.
