Hope you all enjoy the new header. This is what happens when Jessie is stuck at home for two days without being allowed to do anything productive. He begged to be allowed to fold laundry this morning, and then promptly fell asleep for two hours from the exertion. So we're sticking to making photo collages and watching movies.
Madeline is enjoying having Jessie home, although she's not quite getting the whole recovery concept. She knew he went to the doctor, and we tried to explain to her what happened with her Madeline doll and books, which conveniently feature an appendectomy. But although she enjoys looking at his 'owies' and wandering around complaining that her tummy hurts, she hasn't grasped the rule that she can't jump on Daddy's lap or kick him in the stomach. And since I've been trying to enforce this rule for Mommy ever since we found out I was pregnant and she still doesn't follow it, I'm pretty sure she won't be figuring it out anytime soon.
As for Jessie, he's pretty much acting like a pregnant woman. I laugh when we sit next to each other on the couch holding our stomachs and fight over the bathroom (even though there are three in our house.) Both of us are banned from heavy lifting, we both have no appetite, and both our stomachs are bloated. So we're enjoying understanding each other's pain. Although I think it's unfair that he gets narcotics. Something about being cut open being painful. Whatever.
