life goes on

As easy as it is to stay at home and avoid the extra carrying and lugging it takes to go out with the casted Olive we have been venturing out. We live on the 4th floor so we have 5 flights of stairs to carry her up and down every time we go out. I think it is more fun for her to be in the stroller checking out interesting things than staying at home staring at youtube and reading books. So off we go (especially on the weekend when John is available to help) - today we went to The National Museum of Korea. We posed for this photo opp where Obama had stood just a few weeks ago.
Here is Olive with the camera strap levitation device that we created. If her leg is not supported than the cast digs into her thigh in the back. She is wearing my sock to keep her toes warm as she can't wear a shoe on that foot. We put her own sock on her other foot but halfway through our outing today discovered that she had taken it off and dropped it. We were very glad that we had her stroller blanket to keep her tootsies covered on the way home. Don't want to get yelled at by the Korean grandmas when they see her bare toes and don't want her feet to get cold.
Here is a good shot of Olive with her new scarf. It has been tough to get her to wear a scarf - it seems really important to protect her little neck from the cold. I found this at a thrift store and realized that cutesy things like this actually help small children wear the warm things necessary here in the winter. Brilliant - Olive loves her puppy!
