Her surgery went really well. Hopefully we don't have to go through this any more times. I'm so thankful to have Children's Hospital so close by! They are amazing there! Everyone from the nurses to the doctors to the people who check you in, they all have a very special way of keeping the kids happy and not letting them get scared. Here is Lyla when we put her in her "special pjs" and showing off her "bracelet"!
We had to be there at 6:45 in the morning, then by the time she went back for surgery and then it took her quite a while to get woke back up from the anesthesia, it was about noon when we got home. The three of us ended up taking a nap.
When we got up we were thankful for the popsicles Grandma had sent!
Then we got a knock on our door with a special delivery for Lyla. Her teachers at daycare sent her flowers and a stuffed monkey! How sweet are they? We couldn't ask for more!
She named her monkey B-I-N-G-O. Not Bingo... B-I-N-G-O is his Nameo... lol :)
She is doing great! So great in fact that I decided to go in to work tomorrow and she is going to go to daycare. She is such a trooper. I'm thankful that the problems she has had have all been things that can be treated. Its hard on me as her mom to see anything wrong with my baby, no matter how minor. But I always try to remind myself and put it in perspective that at least its not cancer or some other terrible disease or something that we wouldn't be able to fix.
On that note I'm heading to bed so I can get up to go to work tomorrow.
And Em - I know I know, I didn't do a 5 Things Friday last week and this week isn't looking so promising either... But in my defense I barely even know what day it is anymore!!
