Still not that happy

It's hard to believe it's been a week since Brian's accident. Yet, he still can't put any weight on his leg and is in incredible pain each time he moves it.

I feel horrible for him.

You'll be happy to know that he has taken the real pain killers a few times, after resisting for several days. He couldn't even keep his leg still for the MRI last Wednesday, but was able to get that test done on Monday. We should have results on Wednesday.

He was able to survive the holiday, thanks to the Thanksgiving-food coma. He got to eat all of his favorites - pecan patties, his mom's stuffing, mashed potatoes and of course lots of pumpkin pie.

Most of the Hedgers are all vegetarians - so no turkey! Though, as many of you know, you don't really miss it because there's so much else to eat.

In spite of his horrible injury, we had a pretty great Thanksgiving. Liz was a hoot all weekend and I'll pass on some of those pictures.

She's a pretty entertaining kid. Since her cousin, who plays piano, was not there, she performed her own "Solo" for about an hour. Each time, she looked at the audience (family and friends) and waited for applause. She even bowed a few times, after being told how.

Later, she said to me: "Why were the people talking when I was playing?" Apparently, she thought everyone should have been sitting quietly listening to her. What an ego for a 3-year-old.

Then, in the next moment - my "piano-playing genius" can't resist another grab for her boogers.

Never a dull moment. I think we can wait on those music lessons...
