On Dec 29th I wrecked my car. Reese was with me and we were both safe and sound but the car..well not so much! We had been in the market for a new car for Bob for awhile anyway so while we were down to one car we went ahead and bought a new one for Bob. On the 2nd day of being a new car owner Bob had a meeting in OKC and took the new car. It was late when he got home and he said he thought the seat warmer had burned his side. (this is where I laughed..sorry honey)! Over the next week the seat warmer burn turned into some pretty serious abdominal pain and I sent poor Bob to the doctor. The doctor scared us out of our mind with some pretty scary ideas of what was wrong with him. During this time we got an impromptu visit from Mimi and Bob who helped watch Reese while we were running back and forth to the doctor.
You may notice Reese's new friend "granpa kitty" in this picture...another post about that coming soon!
Grandpa Bob had a birthday while he was here so we had a little celebration for that.
After several days of tests, tears and prayers it was finally determined that he had gallstones. Although that still required surgery we were thrilled to know it wasn't more serious. He had his gallbladder removed last Friday. Here is his right before surgery..he had already had his "cocktail" and he was seriously funny:)
Again sorry honey for the picture but I couldn't resist!
He was released the same day and was really not in horrible shape afterwards other then he slept a lot and was not supposed to lift Reese for 1 week! Needless to say I was on duty taking care of both of them for about 5 days! The first few days Bob slept almost all day so Reese and I just tried to leave him alone and keep quiet. One day at Kroger she insisted on bringing this to Daddy...
although I'm pretty sure she just wanted it for herself (smart girl huh)!!
After the third day Reese was really missing Daddy so they spent some time like this..
Thanks to everyone for your help, thoughts and prayers. We are greatly appreciative!

you poor thing...I know you have had a rough few weeks...we really need a girls night out and you really need some "MOMMY TIME" and lots of it!
:)
Wow! That sounds like a tough few weeks! Glad that Bob is okay. Hope that the next few weeks are uneventful!
I am glad Bob is ok. How scary! I know if I had taken a picture of Andrew's daddy like that, it wouldn't have made it on the blog. ;)
oh my goodness!! I'm so sorry!! Bob will be in our prayers!
I missed your blogging. Glad to have you back!
