1 week & an appendectomy!

So much has happened since we had Travis on the 7Th. I just wanted to thank Scott for being such a great husband and support to me. And for blogging about Travis, (It was his first time-and he wouldn't let me see it in the hospital. I thought he did pretty good:) Anyways, Travis is doing great, he was a little jaundicy but did not have to go on a Bili bed, so that was good. He has tons of black hair and a prominent widows peak. And my favorite, he has dimples! I always wanted dimples cause they are so adorable! As soon as i can capture them on camera you'll see.

Sooo....Last Wednesday, I woke up and nursed Travis and got up to get ready and was hit with major cramps. I took some of my hospital meds and even took a bath to help, but nothing was working. I had to take Travis in to check his Bili Rubin and the kids really wanted to come with me( they have been mommy deprived I think) so my mom came as well. When we got there, we were late and they cancelled our appointment, and rescheduled it for an hour later. By then my cramps were crippling and I decided to go back down to labor & delivery to ask their advice and use their phone to call my doctor(left my cell phone @home). After talking to the doctor twice, I decided to go to the e.r. and make sure. It was a good thing I did though, turns out I had an appendicitis.... exactly one week after Travis was born. I went in for surgery that afternoon and came home the next afternoon.

Crazy, I know. But there were blessings as well. The first was that my mom was still here, so I had someone to be with my kids, and the second is that I have health insurance right now. If this happened months from now we wouldn't be so lucky. I am so grateful for a Heavenly Father who looks out for me and comforts and guides me in my life.
