T & A

Lauren had her tonsils and adenoids removed on Thursday May 27th at Cardinal Glennon. She did awesome! She was very brave and has been making a good recovery so far. She struggled a little bit coming out of anesthesia but after I was able to hold her and calm her down she fell asleep in my arms.

Since we've been home she's been making steady improvement. She's definitely milking the fact that she can watch as many movies as she wants and eat as many popsicles and ice cream as she wants. The major struggle we've had is over medicine. She despises medicine and given the fact it hurts to swallow, she really doesn't want to take medicine now. Luckily we only needed the pain relief medicine that has the narcotic for the first two days and now are getting by with just regular tylenol. She's even been playing low key outside some while I have Blake out. I'm just hopeful the rest of the recovery goes smoothly as well.

Thanks to everyone who has called, sent cards and e-mails and been so concerned about Lauren. It's so good to know so many people care about our baby girl!
