Grandpa Get Better

Grandpa needed some help...

he needed visitors and distraction to pass the time while he was in the hospital. I just so happen to have a couple of little boys that can be a distraction...I don't know how much "help" they really were, but we visited anyway!

Without knowing too many specifics even yet, something is 'abnormal' with his skin and/or blood. It was treated as an infection for many days..but that was not the actual problem. Hopefully soon they will know what the issue is, and how to "solve" it. Meanwhile, I have eager visitors to keep him company if Grandpa is around!

We all love you...and bummed that you've had quite the run around trying to get this thing figured out. Glad that you are feeling better, and out of the hospital!

Botanica and Dad

While Ben had off from school..we wanted to do one "fun" thing all together. 

So we went to Botanica. I think as far as pretty flowers and nature goes, we were a couple weeks late. But the weather was perfect, so they had fun running around and playing...which was the point.

Afterwards, we went to see Dad in the hospital. He had back surgery this morning, so we stopped in to see how he was doing. Having just visited a hospital (when Jonah was born), Christian was really trying to piece everything together. He said, "it is kinda a better reason to go to the hospital when a baby is born." He was concerned for Grandpa and that he was hurting.

And the picture Christian drew when we got home for Grandpa to get better...

"its Grandpa." 

(I think its cute...and I especially find the exact 7 hairs on his head to be quite funny.)
