- We’re extremely lucky to live 30 short miles away from the #1 pediatric hospital in the country
- The boys are even more lucky to have a dad who happens to work at said hospital
- Phil is a saint for camping out in Charlie’s room for 3 days and sleeping on a tiny plastic couch
Cha was his usual smiling and happy self most of the time – I know this because I made Phil send me a picture approximately every 5 seconds so I could see with my own two eyes that he was okay. Three cheers for for smart phones!
The best thing I learned this week is that the boys have complete and total trust in their dad. When I first told them what was going on, this was the conversation I had with Ry:
Me: Guys, I have news. Charlie is sick and had to go to the hospital
Ry: Did he go to the Children’s Hospital?
Me: He sure did
Ry: Is Daddy taking care of him?
Me: He sure is
Ry: Okay, so Daddy’s got it
Here are some pics of the patient (the thing on his arm was just a brace to keep him from pulling out the IV that he had in his hand). As you can see he was all smiles – we’re just glad to have him home!

So glad he's home. I love Ry's comment. There's nothing better than that confidence that Dad will take care of everything. And it's good to see showing your bum in a hospital gown has no age limit.
Hi Everyone! I'm sorry if this blog post caught you by surprise. I feel like a bad friend for not keeping everyone updated sooner, but on the flip side I know you forgive me since y'all called me right when you read this to say WHAAAAT?! Between the 2 other kids, work, feeling beyond preggers, and going back & forth to the hospital...this week has kicked my behind. Not complaining, just trying to explain myself :-) So I'll say thank you and sorry all in the same breath!! Love you guys!!
Yes, you are forgiven. Yes, we need a code word for when you need our positive energy and don't have time to stop and give us the details. Yes, we love you too :)
And seriously, that last picture at the window? Is he not the cutest? Almost makes me want another.... almost. :)
