~Success~

Well yesterday my dad had back surgery to remove a bulging disc that has bothered him for 2 months now - all went well, he thought he would be able to come home after he had come out of recovery however they asked him to stay the night in order for him to lay flat on his back for about 8 hours! He said he wasn't in pain, just sore - and he didn't take any pain meds until he went to sleep last night! what a trooper... We went to visit him last night, the hospital was in North Phoenix but worth the drive to keep him company! Ashlyn had a great time showing off to grandpa and all the nurses, she is a crack up! My mom picked him up this morning and he is happy to be in his own house! I have to mention a funny thing Ashlyn did yesterday, I put her in "time out" in her room and she cried a little and whined, but quickly started yelling "Sorry mama sorry, sorry mama sorry" she continued that until I went in to get her 2 minutes later. I couldn't help myself laughing SO hard! Also last night at the hospital the security guard asked her what her name was (she has never responded to this question) and she pointed to her chest and said "I Ashlyn" - It was really cute! We are hoping my dads recovery continues to go smoothly and that he will be feeling more like himself shortly!
