Appendicitis!!!!!!


So Yesterday after we had the sonogram to see our new addition, we came home and Robert sat down to eat something before heading off to bed to get some more sleep before work. He mentioned having a stomach ache and we thought nothing of it and he went to lay down. Well by 4:30pm the pain had only gotten worse, and still we though well maybe He just needs to walk around some. so we went over to dad's to finish up some things and he went to help do a service project (hauling sand I believe) The while time he was doing the service he felt fine. no pain. But when he got home and left for work he was really hurting. Fast forward to 11:30pm. I get a phone call from the shift manager at Wal-Mart telling me that they called an ambulance to take Robert to the ER because he had passed out on the floor. So I called dad to see if he come pick me up (Robert had the our only car at Wal-Mart) and take Brittannia so I could focus on Robert and Brittannia did not have to go to the ER. I show up to the Er and they tell me that they think it is Kidney Stones. They ordered the CT scan and we were waiting on that to confirm or not the possible diagnosis. Well after the CT Scan the Dr came in and told us that it was not kidney Stones but an early stage of Appendicitis. They admitted him and we waited till this morning to get the surgical consult and get the surgery to take out the appendix.  By 9 am the surgeon was in and by 10:30 am Robert was down in the OR getting the surgery done.
Getting prepped for surgery
 The surgery was only about an hour long and then he was in the Recovery Room for about 45 minutes. He wanted to sleep. ;) but they finally brought him up to the room and he fell asleep again. spent the next hour a sleep. Which I think was needed.
Our sleeping patient
I got a few pictures of his incisions before he went back to sleep after our little walk around the floor.

It was three total. the one at the belly button was for the camera. then one on the side was for the tools the doctor needed and the third was for the hose for the gas to make a cavern for the doctor to work in.
After walking around for a bit, and eating some jello and broth, he went back to sleep. Well I got to go. Robert just woke up and is in pain from the incisions.

Trampoline time

So while at Dad's place I put Brittannia on the trampoline so she could play and to see what she would do. Brittannia seemed to enjoy it. Krisi helped her on the bouncing and all. She did laugh a few times. 

Good Times

Remember when you use to turn on the hose and get a drink of water? Brittannia was at Dad's place and saw the hose lying there and decided that she wanted a drink. She went over, picked it up and tried to drink from it. so I turned it on and let her play with the water. She did this all on her own. She loved it. She would go play then come back and get another drink.

Prayer time

So we have taught Brittannia how to fold her arms and will do so when we say prayer, but not the whole time, that is our next feat. ;). In all she will automatically fold her arms when we sit her up at the able. She helps to remind us to say prayer. She is also really great at folding them anytime we as her to. On most days. She is saying mommy, and hi a lot more She will say hi to you when you walk into the room she is in. And she will wave bye when we leave a room.
I do not have a video of this yet but it is so sweet. She has learned to give kisses and she loves to give them. she will come up to you and give you  kiss, then will go to another person give them a kiss and then come back to you. She will play this game when it is her bedtime as a way to avoid going to bed. It is really cute though. anyways here is a update on us.

Super Saturday

Also Yesterday liberal hosted the Super Saturday for the stake and Janel was in charge of it, so we went over to help her set up and get things ready for the kids. We also stayed and helped her run thegame and such. But it was a VERY long day for Brittannia who decided that she did not want to take a nap at all. She also got up at 6:30 in the morning.
But for some who had no nap she was a happy girl.
 Brittannia did get some sun and she now has a "Mormon" tan on her arms. It is hard to see the picture. She did have a onesie on but mom forgot to change her and she had a HUGE diaper blow out and grandpa was nice and changed Brittannia for me.
 In all we had a good day and Brittannia slept great all night.

I forgot to get pictures her playing with the kids and such but these are at the end of the day.

Air Fair

Yesterday Liberal had a Air Fair/Show at the air museum. So Robert and I loaded up Brittannia and we over to see it. It was pretty cool to see the planes and such, but we had to leave before any of the show part happened. but we did get some pictures of us in the helicopter that was there at the museum. 




 In all we had fun walking around and seeing different planes and watching the sky divers.
