Surgery, family and life

We are laying low here today. Brent had surgery yesterday to fix his deviated septum that was really messed up. It was a long day yesterday We got to the hospital in Janesville (about an hr from our house) around 11. Brent checked in and people came in and out and he was taken back into surgery around 1:30. Surgery lasted around 2 and a half hours. Then he was in recovery for an hour and then resting in a room for an hour and a half before he was discharged. His surgery went well and without a hitch. Jillian did AMAZING during this time. She sat in her stroller and played with toys, watched TV and played on the iPad. I was so proud of her. Brent is healing well. He is still sleepy and has yucky stuff coming out of his nose but he is curled up on the couch hanging out.

I just want to shout out to a couple of amazing people! Big thank you to Dan who is outside mowing out lawn as I write this. He also picked up dinner on his way here. Thank you Dan!
Brent's grandparents are in town right now and we are enjoying getting to spend time with them. They came this morning and hung out with Brent while I was at work. I am very grateful for them coming to make sure he was good while I was gone this morning. I really appreciate it.

We had a good mother's day here. It was busy but it was good. 

She stole my phone and got caught!

She is LOVING her oxygen hair bows

Those $1 easter bunny ears where a good use of our money. She still plays with them all of the time.

Her cart full of babies!

Thank you for all of the suggestions for how to have Jillian's oxygen while she is outside at school. We got this Little Tikes wagon which fits it perfectly. She really loves it and thought it was great at school today.
