Home from the Hospital

Just a quick post to let everyone know that we are home safe and sound from Emma's surgery this morning. Tonsils and Adnoids are officially out now. The surgery went really smoothly and was over in about 20 min. The Dr said all looked well but since they one tonsil was so much bigger than the other they did send it off to pathology (which is normal.) He also said that her adnoids were huge and completely blocking her nasal passages. So it was wonderful that we were already having them taken out as well. Emma did great and actually is sitting her with me on the couch with her beloveds...the kitten and her silky. She is a bit horse but still talking and acting pretty normal. Tylenol with Codine does wonders! She actually wanted her My Little Pony Gummies when we walked in the door. The Dr said give her whatever she'll take as long as it's not sharp or rough so we did! I'm sure she'll crash soon but for now she's just being her normal self. Isn't it amazing that kids used to stay days in the hospital for this surgery and now she's home 4 hours afterwards and eating gummies! Praise God! I have some cute pics of her at the hospital that I'll have to share later. Right now I need to get her in comfy clothes and try to convince her to take a nap for a bit.
