Know how to play.

It was a gorgeous weekend. Absolutely perfect. We spent it outside. 

Driving boats at Pullen Park.

Riding carousel cats.

Playing in the sandbox.

Digging and digging.
Chasing dinosaurs with friends.

Running and running.

Saying "cheese" just like mommy asked.

Loving one another.

Tickle, tickle!

By Sunday night, everyone was exhausted in the very best way.

Jonathan has his pre-op appointment soon, and then a couple weeks after that he'll have his gall bladder removal surgery. At one point, we were told that would be an outpatient procedure, but then his primary care doc seemed to think it would be inpatient and include a 3 day hospital stay (at minimum). We'll find out more at the pre-op appointment on March 5th, so I'll keep you posted. He's feeling alright, back to work and back to eating, only occasionally throwing up, and he still gets tired easily but he's improving. He has the JP percutaneous drain in and probably will for a while yet, and that bothers him, but it seems to be doing its job at least for now. We're hopeful that it's not too much longer before they can pull that drain though. It would be nice for him to get a proper shower and be able to feel comfortable again.
