Eric is home!

Yes he got his walking papers today and is back at the manse. He welcomes visitors but please call first as he is also napping a fair amount. And now the moment you have been waiting for--we are opening up the "guess the number of staples" contest again. Enter early and often. But beware--Lil mom keeps trying to cheat and count the staples, so Eric has resorted to wearing a beautiful hat, lovingly knitted for him by his niece....

    Watch out. family or friends might count them when you're sleeping! So, my gut tells me it's 37 staples. But I want it to be 39.

    Wow that's awesome that you're home so quick cause hospitals really aren't that restful.

    Here I sit on Eric 's right side, but true to the rules I am not counting, just guessing. 36. And of course the hat is fabulous.

    From Buzz peeps:
    Jim Teo - 28 staples this time! That's my guess.
    Janet Browner - yeah, Eric!! I'm guessing 33 staples!

    Where are the guesses from the rest of the family?

    Glad you're home Eric! It's SOOOO much easier to rest and heal at home. I hope you start to feel like yourself soon.

    And, Berger loves those staples...I'm going to guess 54. Hopefully I'm wrong. ;) Luckily though, I noticed that my head was increasingly less sensitive to the staple/suture removal for each surgery. I hope you have the same experience no matter how many you have.

    I would love to bring you all a meal and visit, but I'm out of town for the weekend.

    Take care. XO

    I wonder whether Logan told the surgeons about the blog...and whether Dr. B thought it would be apt to redo the 42... just sayin'

    I seem to recall that you have another quite awesome hat that you could wear, should you want to switch things up a bit! ;-) GO GREEN!!! And I'm going to say 31.

    42, says Bil. Wouldn't want you to have to change the name of the blog. Let's just say it's 42. Nicolas says 32. Lyn says 28. But we're going with 42, right? What do I win?

    oh, and Ollie says 31. or was that, "i have to go potty," or "feed me." it all kind of sounds the same to me. woof.
