Hearing better yet?

Today was a long, tiring, but wonderful day! Up bright and early to get to the Surgical Center (Wellness Center in Doylestown) by 6:30am. RJ did not sleep well all night, up every hour or so grunting, complaining, or crying. Teething + cold = difficult sleep! So every time I got myself relaxed again not thinking about Morgan's surgery and just about asleep RJ made some more noise. Got everything organized to take to Grandmom's (who RJ would visit during Morgan's surgery), got a change of clothes for Morgan ready (just in case), and a bucket and towels (hopefully won't need). Then it was time to get Bubba up. He was actually awake at 5:20 when I went in to wake him up and nurse him. Poor Bubba! Nursed him, got him in the car, woke Morgan up and got her in the car. She requested her milk, but sorry kiddo no food or drink until after your surgery! Got to the Surgical Center right on time and we filled out all the intake forms. Morgan and I were taken back to get ready for her surgery (while Daddy took RJ to Grandmom's). She got into a cute little hospital gown with Looney Tunes characters all over it. She isn't old enough to know who the Looney Tunes are yet so she said, "Look Momma... a yellow bird (Tweety), a lion (Taz), a cat (Sylvester)." Cute and sweet! She looked so cute in her gown and in the big 'bed'. The nurse covered her legs with a white blanket. Morgan was so well behaved the whole time! She was VERY compliant and did everything the nurses asked her to! She listened to the anesthesiologist and smiled at everyone who came to say hello to her. The cat seemed to have got her tongue... but she gave her little shy smile to everyone! (She was the only patient that early in the morning so she had a good ten people milling around her, of course mentioning how cute she was, and especially how well behaved she was!) They put a blood pressure cuff on her arm, heart monitors on her back, and put a finger clip on her finger... not sure, to check heart beat maybe? She was so sweet, letting everyone do whatever they needed to... then came the juice. It was about two tablespoons of liquid in a little cup. she needed to drink it all. It was to make her whoosie... "drunk like". She took one little sip and refused to drink anymore... so she got wheeled away wide awake, holding baby Lacey (puppy dog MeMom bought her for her surgery) surrounded by three or four nurses, two anesthesiologists, Dr. Nesi, and maybe some other people... all I know is there were a lot of people taking her back! She gave me a kiss and then got wheeled away without an ounce of verbalized fear or a tear! (What a brave little girl!!) No lie from the time she was wheeled away to the time the Dr. came out to tell us she was done it was less than fifteen minutes! I was shocked and amazed! I knew that it was an easy and fairly quick procedure but I didn't realize it was such a quick process! Dr. said that a lot of liquid came out and that the surgery went as planned. Whew, thank goodness. Then we needed to wait for "Sleeping Beauty" (her favorite Disney princess) to wake up. I think it took longer for her to wake up then the surgery itself took! She was a little pail when she woke up when the nurse offered her cookies and soda she beamed from ear to ear! Soda?! and Cookies?! for breakfast?! She wasn't going to give that lucky deal up!! She ate one cookie and drank a few sips of soda over 20 minutes and was ready to eat the next cookie when we stopped her and got her dressed. My slow eating daughter could have been there all day eating 4 cookies! We took the rest with us! She was given a clean bill of health by the nurses and the anesthesiologists! Off we went to pick up a prescription at the pharmacy for ear drops and then home! We were all pooped! Daddy went to bed when we got home, and two hours later both kiddos went down for naps. I stayed up because I didn't want a kiddo to wake up and wake up anyone else. Even though I was tired I forced myself not to sleep! The kiddos each took almost 4 hour naps and then went to bed early! Long day, but can't wait until tomorrow to see how Morgan is hearing!
