Wisdom teeth and birthdays - the conclusion

Sorry it's been so long since a new blog post appeared.  The wisdom teeth removal was a huge success with minimal discomfort.  As the anesthesia was wearing off, several people were the lucky recipients of drug-induced text messages like this:

I am done!  Leanne & Travis are pharmacy getting medications.  I am on car.  Travis wouldn't let em going in on account of I can't walk.

 Next time I go under, somebody take my phone away from me!  Overall, the recovery was wonderful.  In fact, it was almost like a vacation; I laid around while Mama Hop and Aunt Leanne did the laundry...
...Made the beds...
(Bed made by Aunt Leanne.  When she doesn't know where the pillows go, she throws them anywhere -in the closet, under the bed...wherever!)

...and most importantly, they took excellent care of Josephine Leanne!
There was lots of girl time.  Here's Leanne getting ready for her pedicure:
Aren't these the cutest toes you've ever seen?!
We even enjoyed the beautiful weather with a trip to the park!

Leanne ballet danced all the way home!
Overall, we had a wonderful time!  Travis, Josie, and I cannot begin to express our appreciation to Mama Hop and Aunt Leanne for being so helpful and for keeping this household running!

This is the soft launch of our campaign to convince them to move closer to us...like down the block.

On Friday night we celebrated the birth of this handsome young man by driving around to several local restaurants before finally settling on his favorite pizza place this side of the Mason-Dixon...

Hey, he's a Libra.  We're notoriously indecisive creatures! 

Happy Birthday, Travis.  I love you!

  6. BEST...text...message...EVER.

    :0) I'm so glad you're an expertly pampered, toothless princess.

    And I'm pretty much permanently melted by that pink pajamaed forehead snuggle shot.

    Just yummish.
