Yesterday, we took Lyndon to PCMC to get his Adenoid's taken out. Lyndon has gotten pretty used to going to the Doctor's and all he wanted to know was if he could have a sticker:) ( he got a Toy Story one!) He had to fast from midnight on which I was really worried about because the first thing out of his mouth every morning is "can I have cereal" today however, he didn't ask which was a blessing. He was able to have apple juice until eight which kept him occupied and the fact that Daddy was coming with him, he just kept begging to get his shoes on so he could go with him. When we wer ready all packed up with books and coloring books ready for a long day of waiting, but we were wrong.
Once we were at the hospital everything went so fast, he wasn't going to having surgery until 11 but they were running early so we were registered, changed into his cute little hospital clothes and waiting in the pre-op room before we knew it. By this point I was getting a little nervous about giving my baby over to the doctor's and hoping he was going to be okay and that this was the right decision. Lyndon was so calm and happy having fun playing with all the toy's that I kept my cool:) Because, Lyndon freaks out when he is not with either Tyler or myself we opted for the ..ugh, children's valum I think is what they referred to it as. He was hooked up to a Pulse/OX monitor and we waited. Slowly we could see the effects of the medicine, Tyler asked Lyndon who he was and Lyndon just kept staring at his name tag and smiling, I know we are terrible parent's but it made us giggle a little to see him just smiling ear to ear staring at nothing:)
The surgery was SUPER fast only 20 minutes and they said Lyndon did GREAT!! Other than trying to stand up and jump out of his crib right after he woke up and before we saw him:) I have never been so relieved to see my little boy , he barely cried and just slept in our lap's until we were released and where he was able to ride in a wagon out to the car.
Lyndon, is now doing amazingly well we were given a prescription for Lora tab which we threw away because Lyndon has barely needed Tylenol. We tried to get him to rest but he was not been having any of that:) Besides a slight fever this afternoon and him now staring to to complain his ear's hurt(normal)Lyndon is on resilient little man. We are so Thankful for that and can already see the effects of how much better he is sleeping now that he can actually breathe at night!
