Home Sweet Home

Sophie and I were "sprung" from the hospital yesterday. It was a rough couple a nights with little sleep. Sophie was a trooper and really did spend 3 days either on her tummy, side or back. I put my laptop in her crib so she could watch some of her DVD's, and that seemed to help a little. She is still a little wobbly but that is getting better each day and is only taking tylenol for pain. Any of us big kids would still be in the hospital with a morphine drip! It is just amazing how quickly children bounce back!
Of course things couldn't go smoothly back on the home front, although I am happy to report that no dogs were lost and there were no emergency room visits. Ben ( our weakest link of late) had been home sick last week with a fever that lasted 5 days, he headed back to school on Tuesday healthy and ready for Christmas break. Hannah on the other hand stayed home having puked all over my bed Monday night! It was the classic "daddy my tummy hurts......" So Chris found himself changing the bed, comforter and all at 2am and trying to help Hannah settle back in to bed after throwing up a few more times! Go ahead an laugh I did! Poor Hannah. When I spoke with Chris all he could say was " I can't wait for 2007 to be over!" Every one is healthy and on winter break, looking forward to Christmas, presents, some rest......and 2008!!
