My Dad:
My Dad was due to have surgery on 3/17/09. He has 2 torn ligaments and a bad contusion in his neck. He was getting a disc (spell check) removed and replaced with a bone and finally, a spinal fusion. When he went in for surgery on the 17th, we were happy to know that the surgery that was supposed to last 4.5 hours, only lasted 1.5 hours. Our thoughts were that it must have been better than they originally thought. When the doctors came out, they told us that they stopped the surgery (prior to cutting him) because he went into V-Tach (Ventricular tachycardia (V-tach or VT) is a tachycardia, or fast heart rhythm that originates in one of the ventricles of the heart. This is a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia because it may lead to ventricular fibrillation and sudden death.). Knowing that my Dad could have passed, made for a very difficult week. They ran tests on him and let him go home on Saturday. They found that his heart is in better shape than it was 4 years ago, but it's still not healthy. They are going to attempt the surgery again on the 30th (the doctor is out until then and they don't want anyone else to perform the surgery). I won't be going, so I'm very worried about it. Right now, he's dizzy and in a lot of pain because of his neck, and the pain pills don't always work. He's going to have to deal with it until the 30th though. I've been keeping an eye (from afar) on him because he's so stubborn! I think that the near death experience may have scared him a little bit...which is good! He is actually wearing the neck brace that they ordered him to wear. Anyway, I'll keep you updated.
Getting home:
I'll keep this short. Frontier is ghetto!! They oversold the flight home by 20 people!! I ended up getting home Sunday instead of Friday. G-H-E-T-T-O!!! I felt like I was in a ghetto hair salon!

My walk at work
I do a power walk around this trail during my lunch hour now...trying to get some sort of exercise. I have to admit, it's a little intimidating walking near the parts with nothing between me and the lake with the gators in it - my stomach drops a little everytime I walk where one can get me. hehe
Sunbathing turtles...I'll try to get a bigger picture next time.
Big turtle in the lake. There are tons!!
Scary sign!!Date night with Dad
Phil and Khiani had a date night at Red Lobster. I hate that Phil wouldn't let me take a picture with a better background...he can be such a pill sometimes.
Sooo...it's been a while
I'm sorry everyone, I've been slacking on the pictures. Here are some random pictures:
Sleeping with my bunny in my play yard....why did Mommy just now bring this thing out? She could have been using this all along!!! Geez...she's angry with herself!!
One of my new summer outfits, and YES, THAT DOES SAY 24 MONTHS!!! I'm 24lbs!!
I bounced myself to sleep in my bouncy horse. lol
Brother had to get in the mix.
Ok, this is funny...read the shirt and you better believe Daddy was on his way to pick him up.
I love my buckets!! They're so much fun...they make lot's of noises!
Sitting up is now a MUST for me.
