Post op

Well we are post op recovering now. Amelia is doing well, she had her tonsils/adnoids outs and tubes put in her ears. She seems to go in spurts of wellness. Then she crashes and cries which she is hard to get to calm down. She doesn't like to take her medicine so every 4 hours we have a meltdown. Amelia had to stay overnight in the hospital, they wanted to give her anti swelling drugs because she already has a small throat and with the natural swelling from surgery they wanted to make sure her airway was clear. She loved going on wagon rides throughout Children's Hospital. We met some other friends in the hospital and mommy just has to say that we are really lucky we just had our tonsils/adnoids out, some of the poor angels we met were in for far worse. May they recover soon :)

Charlie is doing well, a little gassy still from his procedures. He had a bronc and endocospy which led to them taking 3 biopsies of his tummy from "suspicious" material. We will know what that is all about in a week or so when the results come back. He fought being put under put did well waking up. He then got to have some cuddle time with his favorite person, grandma I. He was a major flirt with the woman, just like his Grandpa I used to be!! He really didn't like his iv and we had to restrain him so he wouldn't pull it out!

Baylee is doing well, she has aspiration pneumonia. All 3 of my children have been diagnosed with weak throats that leave their airway not protected from liquids. We are going to be starting Vital Stem therapy in December (Amelia has to wait 4-6 weeks). This is to strengthen their throat muscles so we can prevent aspiration pneumonia. Anyways Baylee is doing well, currently napping. She has not had a fever for 3 days. So we are thankful and hopeful she is on the mend.

Cute after note. Amelia is awake right now but her siblings are sleeping on the floor in the living room. She just took 2 blankets and covered each one of them up and patted their back and said "nigh, nigh". Too cute. A definite glad to be a mom moment!!
