Well, after debating about posting on this subject....I've decided to do it. I had surgery 9 days ago. Nothing serious, don't go worrying. :) I had some "elective" procedures done that I have been begging Chris for ever since I had my first baby. Well, 6 babies and 10 years later, my wish came true. Santa was good to me this year! 4 days after Christmas I got some really great presents! Having 6 babies in 10 years does not do pretty things to your body. Not that I had a "perfect" body to begin with, but I just wanted to be put back together. Lucky for me I have the greatest husband on earth. He actually encouraged me to do it...even though it cost a fortune! :) Not only was he on board 100% with the procedures, he was also on board 100% for my recovery. That meant rearranging his work schedule to have 2 weeks off AFTER Christmas instead of during Christmas. Not easy to do. He also knew that since both of our moms would be out of town that week, that he was on his own to take care of me AND the kids. Now, who would go and do that on purpose? :) I am happy to report that he has taken EXCELLENT care of all of us. From doing laundry, dishes, diapers, bathtime, bedtime and meals all by himself to making sure I take my medicine on a strict schedule...he has been amazing. He tucks me in (to my recliner in the basement) each night, making sure I have a phone by me in case I need to call him at anytime, propping my feet with pillows, reclining my head to just the right spot, and kissing me goodnight...while taking the baby monitor with him so he can get up with Sophey if she wakes up. :) He has had to do some crazy things in the last 9 days and I love him all the more for it. Guess what? He hasn't complained ONCE. Seriously. Not once. There has been a lot to complain about around here too...the kids are off track until the 26th of January and they are getting bored already. Oh, and guess what...now he's vacuuming. :) He has to help with the cleaning, cooking & baby duty for weeks until I am fully recovered. It breaks my heart to not be able to hold my baby...but I am ok with Chris being on diaper duty for a while. I am the happiest woman alive. Sorry for those of you that want to puke on me. I hate when people write sappy things about their husbands...I always feel like I should be jealous or something. But, I just couldn't help it. :) Oh, and I can't forget my fabulous friends who have taken such great care of me!! Meals, flowers, presents, treats, phone calls, etc...I have awesome friends! Our moms even brought us dinner when they came back in town. We have been spoiled. I feel so blessed and so lucky. (And a titch miserable at the same time)
