I love to sit up at the hospital with Hank, but it can be very tedious at times. While we’re there, we can’t do normal “baby things” with him because of the limitations of the pacer wires, respiratory support, and feeding tubes. It can get frustrating to wait and wait all the time, so we try to take breaks and do things as a family (minus one).
Last Saturday we took Drew to the zoo. My mom ended up getting a season pass, so we try to take advantage of it.
Drew likes to see the animals, probably the elephants the most (baby geese were a close second). The train though is the best part of the zoo. He would ride it over and over if he could.
(You couldn’t tell he loved the train in this picture. He really did, he was just sad that it was leaving without mama.)
Primary’s has lots and lots of donations that they receive from volunteers, and companies. So, they get lots of opportunities and they share them with the families of children who live there (like us).
The Heber Valley Railroad provided free tickets to A Day Out With Thomas to families. We took advantage of those for sure, though we missed Steve but had fun with Grandma Suzie (my mom).
It was a fun little ride through the Heber Valley (it lasted about 45 minutes). They don’t call it the Heber Creeper for nothing.
Drew had a lot of fun, but more fun after the “scary conductor” left (some character from Thomas the Train). They even gave us passes to come back again. I’m sure Drew would love Daddy to take him back again.
