Bye Bye Tonsils!!

My sweet little Addisen had to have her tonsils out this week. I can't even begin to tell you how proud I am of her! She was so brave! We had to be to the Hospital at 5:30am on Monday. The nurse took her weight, height, blood pressure ect. and then gave her the hospital jammies to put on. She definitely wasn't excited about those itchy hospital clothes. After that they gave her some "happy juice" which made it easier for her to be taken away from us to prepare her to have the anesthesia. After about 5 minutes of drinking the "happy juice" medicine she started acting so funny! She was making the silliest noises and saying the funniest things...that's when you need your movie camera for Americans Funniest Home Videos! After that they took her back to remove her Tonsils and Adenoids, I sat and waited for her to come to her room after the surgery, and I know that it is a very common and routine surgery, but it still felt like forever before they brought her to me. She was just such a sweet heart and so brave,(much braver than me that is for sure!!) I hope that now she won't be so sick and will be able to sleep better!


Sorry about the quality of this picture, it was taken with my cell phone before they took her back for the surgery.

She is SOOO beautiful, even in her hospital cap! I remember Kaden getting his tonsils out when he was about 3. It was tough, glad all went so well for you.
