Visiting Daddy

When Andy is overnight we try to go in to the hospital to pay a visit. Right now he is at the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. Here are some pics of his room.

Post-Call Traditions

Andy is on a Pediatric Floor month, so that means he is overnight at the hospital every forth night. When he comes home, after being away for 30 hours :( , we have a post-call tradition of going out to the Chinese buffet and then to the zoo. Here is Andy and Arathena trying to eat a fortune cookie.
