Tonsils....Smonsils

nothing to do with this post....but it sure does make me giggle! She will kill me one day for posting this pic but her little wedgie was adorable!
We woke up this morning, picked out our Christmas jammies to wear (a battle I decided not to pick), and headed to the doctor.

even though we hid, they still found us!

with all the waiting, CC was ready to go. We walked her to the door, but she went back without a problem.

I hopped in bed so we could cuddled and eat popsicles. CC was even trying to smile even after her surgery.

After many date changes and back and forth with insurance people, Christian had her tonsils and adenoids removed today. Mimi and Grandaddy came in town Wednesday to play with us, then keep Emory while we were at the hospital. The girls swam like crazy at the hotel the night before. CC went down the slide and swam to the side all by herself (and her swimmies). Emory loved the water and the stairs. We woke up early and headed to hospital at 7:15. We went straight into our own room to wait for CC to go back. Everyone was so nice and they made the whole experience easy and stress free for kids (and mamas!). She went back at 9:00, was back in the room by 10:00, and we were home by 11:30. Very fast and very easy. the doctor said her adenoids were enormous and her tonsils were huge. So her breathing, stuffiness, snoring, and ears should be a huge improvement once she is completely healed.

I now know why she picked her Christmas PJs to wear....b/c it felt like Christmas with all the presents she got!!! When we got home, she had a pile gifts with from us. Denise came by to bring her a goody bag from Ava, and Mimi and Grandaddy gave her movies, dolls, and dress up clothes. This girl is going to want to get her tonsils taken out more often!

She is drinking a ton and even wanting to eat, which are both good things. Although she is doing so well, the doctor said day 3 and 4 are the worst days b/c the scabs start to form which is very painful....so a fun weekend is ahead of us!

I'm so proud of my little tonsil/adenoid- free girl!
