It's Twins

On Thursday October 13th I had twins. Twin Gall stones that is. I also had my gall bladder removed. I am not really sure what to name them but stones this size desire some kind of name. Tyler has been learning about the gall bladder and said that a large stone is considered to be the size of a pea!! I am not sure what these would be considered then. Thank heavens for modern medicine that only required 5 small incisions to remove the gall bladder and the stones. I should begin feeling a ton better with these babies on the outside. I have some swelling and some soreness but overall I am feeling pretty good.
I was having problems loading this but my sweet family made cards for me so I would get well. It did make me feel better. Thanks guys for your sweet words.



Jennifer brought her kids and Lane and Geraldine to be with me during the surgery and then take care of me for a few days afterward. I really appreciated all they did while they were here. Just having the kids around to watch and the adults to talk to really helped me. Kelsey came Friday night to assist also. She painted my toes and pampered me very well!! Thanks so much everyone. I truly felt well taken care of!
Carson is clowning around while wearing a hat that Grandpa found for him. He is such a show off!! Love you kiddo. Grandma couldn't play with him or take him for our usual scooter rides so he went to school with Aunt Carleen. She gave him a 5th grade math test and he got a 100 on it! WOW! Then he helped her pass out papers and told the kids to call him "Mr. Carson" and they did. He was the teaching assistant for two days. Weird that a child would want to miss school and then go to school but he really seemed to enjoy it. Then Aunt Carleen took him rock hunting and of course to the rock shop and the dollar store. He was spoiled rotten.
This little sweetheart is attached to Mom big time. We got to hold her for about 15 seconds before she would realize that mom didn't have her and she would start to cry "moma". She says it very clearly. She is so cute. We could put her on the floor and play with her forever as long as we didn't pick her up. Her smile melts us all and we give her anything she wants, including her mom.

Thanks so much for the cards, well wishes and good care. I will be back on my feet in no time and hopefully no more problems. I love and miss you all so very much. :)
