starting to run

Kyle's been attempting to run. 

back to work

Kyle is back to work this week, 4 hours a day for 2 weeks, then 6 hours for 2 more weeks then back to 8 hours. Monday he realized he walks funny in work shoes so is just wearing shoes. Tuesday he worked way too long and walked too far so his leg hurt really badly. He didn't go to work Wednesday because his leg hurt. Wednesday night (last night) Kyle met with this leg people, the knee/leg rep of the leg he is testing and an amputee who uses the leg Kyle is testing. The guy was able to give Kyle a lot of tips and told him that he plays basketball and snowboards. Life is slowly getting back to normal.

park

Kyle was so happy to be able to play at the park with Olivia. I can't remember the last time he had the energy to be able to really play. I don't know who was more tired when we got home.

mini golf

Don't worry, Kyle's mini golf skills haven't changed with the new leg.

balance

Kyle did really well balancing on this little wall. Really well meaning he didn't fall into the bushes.

arm strength

During chemo, Kyle had a PICC line in his arm which meant no working out and no holding Olivia because she was too heavy. Now that Kyle's been working out, he likes to test his strength.

on 2 legs

It's rare Kyle cleans the floor, but I wasn't going to stop him. With 2 legs I'm going to put him in charge of cleaning the house.

I just liked this picture.
