Toby, Max and Ro are at the Pediatrician’s office now. Lucy and I are at home. 5 minutes before we were going to walk to the office, Lucy said her tummy hurt and started barfing, so I got to stay home.
I think she ate too much at lunch. We set up her sleeping bag near the bathroom. She fell asleep in less than 1 minute.
Below is a picture of her post-vomit recuperation.
I am missing the Dr. appointment.
Roly would look like this…
Poppa and YaYa were very generous in taking Max and Lucy for 5 days last week. They also had Katie, Rich, Abbie and Alex staying with them, so it was a full house. Of course, any summer stay at Poppa and YaYa’s would not be complete without a trip to Auntie Jan’s pool.
Kids having fun with Uncle Rich.
While they were with the Grandparents, the boys (Poppa, Rich, Max, Alex) were able to attend a Dodger’s game.
The tickets Poppa had were in the ‘all you can eat’ section. “For fans that can’t get enough Dodger baseball and great ballpark fare, the All-You-Can-Eat Pavilion provides the ultimate value at the Stadium with unlimited Dodger Dogs, nachos, peanuts, popcorn and soft drinks for fans to enjoy during the game.” Max said he had 2 Dodger Dogs, 2 nachos and 2 sodas, and was still hungry. Yikes!
Although a bit blurry, you can see Max’s excitement. I wonder if Alex was pulling for the SF Giants.
The results of so much excitement

In the video, Gran and Lucy are holding ‘ribbon roses’ that Gran was showing Lucy how to make. Gran attached one to a hair barrette and Lucy wore it in her hair to church.
Due to the vagaries of hospital discharge procedures, we didn’t end up leaving the hospital until nearly 3:30p on Thursday. By the time we arrived home, there were quite a few extended family members waiting to wish us congratulations. My sister Katie and her family were in California on vacation from Michigan, and were leaving for the airport on Friday. YaYa was not going to wait until Christmas (or longer!) to get a picture with all her grandkids in it.
Before I had even made the second trip to bring in the luggage, the grandkids were being posed together.
3 pictures of 3 kids.
Gran and GranDon have been a huge help, especially this past week. Toby wishes (and I concur) that they could stay for a few more weeks.
Our alert boy.
