Surgery

Gabe had surgery to repair an umbilical hernia, which is a hernia near his belly button. He injured it playing basketball a couple years ago & it's been bothering him so he decided to get it taken care of. Nana & Papa came down to watch the kids so I could be with Gabe during the surgery & they had a blast as usual. Gabe did a lot of relaxing and recovering on the couch for several days. He can't lift more than 15 pounds for 3 weeks, which means he can't lift the kids. Not a big deal for Campbell who can get around on her own, but Blake still needs to be lifted a lot - into/out of his highchair/car seat/crib, onto the changing table, off of the table, etc. At least the lifting restriction isn't for 6 weeks, which we initially thought.
