Poor poor Brad had his appendix removed. Sunday night my son was having horrible abdominal pain. He was taken to the Urgent Care escorted by his trusty companion Jamie (his brother). Urgent Care in turn sent him to the ER because they did not know what was wrong with him. The hospital admitted him to "observe him". They were not forthcoming with what they thought might be wrong..just some vague answers. Monday morning still no concrete answer so I being his mother went into my full "What is the Worst Scenerio" Mode. Finally Monday afternoon some answers and by around 4:00 pm he was heading into surgery to have his appendix removed. You think when your kids are grown that your worries are over! I am hear to tell you that will NEVER happen! A mother's love and worry does not have a time switch and does not switch off just because the child might be 25, and married with children. All is well now. Brad is recovering nicely and may be going home today! Plus he has some real cool connect the dots scars. In our family scars are considered VERY MANLY. My husband is all kinds of manly. He has some very cool scars. The best scar is when he shot the nail thru his hand. Being a manly man he tried to pull it out with pliers. That hurt really bad so he put away his tools, loaded his ladder on his truck and proceeded to drive himself to the Urgent Care. They removed the large roofing nail and offered him pain medication which he declined (because MEN don't need pain pills). The next morning I was calling Urgent Care, upon husband's request, to tell them that he changed his mind and he would like the pain pills please. End result one very cool scar and an excellent story to tell at family dinners.
BABY FLICKARD: Baby Flickard's nurse has advised the he will likely be well over 9 pounds at birth. So all those that may be considering buying baby an outfit you might want to forego the newborn size and go to the 0-3 months/or larger. We grow em big in this family! Poor Kendra...this is gonna hurt!
Baby Carrissa: Utterly adorable! She has her Grandpa's heart in the palm of her little baby hand. He was constantly taking her away from me saying, "She wants her Grandpa".
Tyson: Spent some time with my boy. Played some basketball. Showed him Grandma was no slacker on the Court. He should be impressed to have such a cool grandma...who else has a grandma that will jump on a trampoline and shoot hoops.
