We have the NEW legs!

Today is the day!

The girls get their NEW legs!!!

Yes, we are all so excited!

Unfortunately, the weather was NOT great -- lots of storms.  Matt actually had to move a tree so we could get the van and leave!

Thankfully, we still arrived ON TIME!

Elizabeth had received her leg last week BUT there were still a few issues with it -- the foot was turned out AND they laminated it with the fabric going the wrong direction.  So, the peacocks were all sideways!

I don't know if you can tell -- the peacocks are sideways on this leg.

SO

I was suppose to bring MORE material -- which I purchased YESTERDAY 

WELL, I forgot it -- So, My Darling and I RAN to Hobby Lobby to find some more!!

While Mr. Mark fixed her leg all up!!

Walking so Mr. Mark can figure out the changes to make.

AND

NOW It is perfect!

LOVING this leg!

BaJabs had her last fitting --

This leg is very different than the legs she had in the past.  She is now using a peg system leg.  She has an unusual shape to her stub and the last leg we did not really like.  SO -- we are trying something new!

 A new kind of liner -- she is getting it ready to put on.

Measuring it!

The leg seemed good -- so now it has to be laminated.

WHICH means we have 3 1/2 hours to go around Grand Rapids waiting.

Flower shopping, nice lunch at Panera's, browsing at Hobby Lobby --

Lunch at Panera's with nanny!

FINALLY,

We arrived back at Mr. Marks office and her leg is completed!

It is beautiful -- and sooooo very comfortable!

 Listening to the NEW way to keep her leg and liner clean.

Beautiful -- YES, I let the girls pick ANY fabric they want for their legs.

Thankfully, we were able to get out of GR right before rush hour.  

We had a nice ride until North Muskegon, when a transmission line in my van blew!

Having a little fun witing for our Daddy HERO to arrive!

Amazingly, we were able to get off the highway quickly and pull into Taco Bell under a shade tree.  Matt was able to come quickly and our mechanic actually was 2 miles down the road!

Thank-you Lord for looking out for us.

SO -- yes, it was a long day -- with, bad weather, forgetfulness, waiting, eating, shopping, new legs, a migraine and car issues BUT God was with us the whole time and kept us safe!

AND

of course, the girls have beautiful new legs!!!
