Papa's Gotta Brand New Hip!



Brian's dad (Dad V to me) had total hip replacement on Tuesday. He has been such a trooper and the entire hospital staff is in love with him. Those that know Dad V know that he is a spitfire Italian man full of energy and sparkling personality. Some of the scheduling staff even made a special trip to visit him the day after his surgery! He'll be coming home (our house) tomorrow for 7 days before heading to PA. He'll be running circles around us with his new hip in no time!

I LOVE it! this is such a cute post and I love that Mr. V had such great cooperation for the sake of your blog. He looks like he had fun with it too! Tell him we hope he gets feeling better soon! Good job on the post Amy.

I am seriously LingOL!!! Award winning title...I'm gonna be singing that song all day now except w/ the new words. Way to ham it up with Dad V, Amy! He wins an award for best supporting role. This post is an all around award winner! It's also a lesson to all of us that you can take a normal, mundane scenario and turn it into an extraordinary opportunity for beautiful blogging!

You also might be an award winning DIL (daughter in law) for housing/nursing him for 7 days. He's lucky to have you!

Teecy, you're WAY behind the curve now. Clean sweep before/after is now SOOOOOO yesterday. I mean what happened to the unveiling ceremony? I need to see more than the pic of your dog in the driveway which has become imprinted on my brain.

Love to all,
Hannah

I'm LOL right now too! Hannah, I learned something about blogging from your red hats ladies--now that was an opportunity ceased! Thanks for all the blogging encouragement. I'm ready for more! Teecy, you're up and then I think Dolly needs to meet somewhere besides St. Louie and give us some more action.

Teecy said...

Amy, I agree with Hannah about taking an ordinary situation and entertaining us. Way to go!
Hannah, you're cracking me up with your award-winning comments!
I posted ceremony pics on facebook...I didn't want to overdo it with the garage thing. I'll have plenty of good posts after this weekend with my crazy girls!
Then, I'll be off to Taiwan again and the far out east posts will start again.

I know! I love seeing updates on our blogs. I love reading Hannah's comments too. So funny! I heard a rumor that Denise is starting her own blog now too! Bring it on! the more blogs the better. Hannah, I checked out Mama Jeanne's blog and it made me laugh. It's basically all pink with nothing on it but "camp asokdnoaisndga" I can't pronounce it.

Dad V. is adorable! What a trooper to put up with the documentation through a blog ;-) I want a pic of the sweet nurse and he...how cute would that be!

Donna said...

Wait a second...time out. Mama Jeanne has a blog?! PLEASE give me that blog site! I will definitely be her number 1 fan!

Amy I'm laughing at the blog title, too. That is too funny:)

Dolly, Denise is getting a blog?! YES!

Teecy, can't wait till I see your car pull up on James Richard tonight.

Hannah, come shopping with us tomorrow.

I think I covered everyone.
