Rochester



Hello! Today is our last day of being here this week. We're excited to go home and see our kitties! Rob and I were able to get room service yesterday since our day didn't start until 12:45 for an appointment. It was fun to have it on a table, but our room really didn't have much room for it. The other picture is our view from our hotel room. That is the hospital. It is so close! It's been very nice to just walk across the street. We meet with the ent today about Rob's voice. I think it's just a consultation so we'll see what they say on what to do. Rob had a ct scan this morning and they put in an iv in his ankle and he said it was the most painful iv he's ever had. =( So luckily that is over with!

A day of waiting

Rob was able to get his aneurysm in his arm looked at today with an ultrasound. We saw a surgeon and it looks like Rob will be having surgery on it next week. We'll know more soon. We're hoping tomorrow we'll be able to get into a few tests that they ordered today. All the doctors down here have been very nice. Rob is doing well. He's been tired because he's been getting up earlier then he's used to and they poke at him all day =) Our hotel is right across the street from everything so it has been a very easy walk. It's pretty cool here.

Mayo Clinic


We are waiting here at the eye exam Desk west 7. We started this morning at 7:30 am. He had an echocardiogram and that lasted 2 hours. Then it was off to the lab so they could take 5 viles of blood. At 10:30 he had a chest xray followed by an EKG. We were able to sneak off to Noodles for a yummy bowl of mac and cheese and then come back. Jen was here for a little bit and we'll see her later. We're now off for a consult. Great fun!

Nicole's birthday!





Saturday was my sister Nicole's birthday. I bought this pan almost a year ago specifically for Nicole's birthday to make her a baseball cake. I am actually really impressed with this pan I have made some pretty cool cakes from it. So it was a baseball birthday for Nicole. It was fun!

Rob is doing well. He is busy working on his r/c cars. He has been sleeping a lot. We'll post pictures of his r/c car when he gets his rc car back together. He had to get a few new pieces for it from a little crash. It's a little too fast. =)

Hello!



I was organizing Rob's pills on monday and Kimi ended up on my back. He's a funny kitty. I think he thought I was playing with treats and he needed some. Rob is doing well. He said that his numbness in his hand is a tiny bit better. The bump on his arm (the aneurysm) is still the same size. So we're just waiting around. He just got a new cart yesterday to hold his r/c stuff. He's really excited about it. He has been airbrushing some cars too.
I am busy taking care of Rob. I was able to sew another valence yesterday and will put it up when I can find someone who can help me =) I think I might be able to figure it out though. Next on my list is to sew a cover for my bench pad thing and maybe placemats.
The other picture I thought was adorable. My sister nicole is probably thinking that is picture number 50 of those cats on the grey chairs. They just do such cute things on those chairs. =)
