Recovery Period

As expected, Hudson was a very good patient at home, and we were fortunate enough to have no complications. A two-week recovery time is a long time to "take it easy", even for the best of patients :) 
On the first afternoon home, Hudson did a lot of sleeping. Daisy sat with him some :)
Hudson was all for laying around on the couch, sipping on milkshakes, & watching movies. Sister even joined him some!
 After 24-48 hours, Hudson was beginning to smile & want to be more "involved" in what was happening around the house... like working remotes :), and helping out in the kitchen!
 
 Daddy had to go to Texas for a day or two during the recovery time, so it was just Mommy & the three kiddos. They were great, though :) The boys slept in the play room one night, & Callie joined them to watch TV the next morning.
And we headed to the movies one afternoon to get out of the house. (It was the new Winnie the Pooh movie :) We all enjoyed it!
 At Hudson's 2-week check-up, he got an excellent report! Could hardly tell he'd had surgery, and he was cleared to resume normal activity! Way to go, Hudson!
