Finally got a call to get back into the Ronald McDonald House late last night. I guess we could have packed up and gone over there last night, but it was already 9pm when they called and I wasn't up to packing, plus I think the hotel would have charged us for the night anyway. So, we went to the pool one last time instead and will go after breakfast this morning. it's about 7:30 now, and Faith is still sleeping. I think I can pack up our 3 suitcases (2 are mostly medical supplies and food, just 1 is clothing) in about 15 minutes - so much easier when you are not trying to decide what you need to bring from home. Turns out we did forget something - spare batteries for Faith's hearing aids! Oh well, I was able to find a CVS store eventually and buy a pack.
We've been having some fun - especially on Sunday when we went to the Reds game. Unfortunately they lost the game in the 10th inning, but it was a gorgeous day and we really enjoyed being at the ball park. And they had a free Beach Boys concert afterwards with beach balls provided to keep the crowd busy while they were setting up! Faith liked that a lot and was a little rude to a few nice people who offered her a small beach ball - she wanted the huge beach ball, which she eventually got! She was also excited that John Stamos from Full House was performing with the Beach Boys - she even texted Anthony to tell him! Funny that my kids know him but have no idea who the Beach Boys are.
Faith has been texting Anthony and Daddy a bunch the past few days - it's so cute - here's one she wrote to Anthony on Sunday:
"I mis you Antony somush Love faith"
:)
and one to Fred:
"Der daddy I mis you sow mush love faith"
:)
She started crying on the phone last night because she really misses them a lot and she's also feeling scared about going back into surgery on Wednesday, even though it is the final surgery and they will just be removing the pin through through jaw (ouch!) and taking off the RED device. She's been complaining a lot over the past few days about her head hurting her. I think it's actually her neck that is bothering her, she keeps putting her head back to try and stretch it out. She probably needs a good shoulder and neck massage!
Well, I better get up and get packing here!
More later,
Robin
