Well, the surgery and adnoids have come and gone and Addison made it through with flying colors. She's a real trooper. The ENT said her adnoids were huge AND so were her tonsils...guess that's next on the list. Oh well, at least when she took her nap today she was able to breath through her nose - WOW!! That's probably the first time in a long time she's been able to do that because she's been so congested. I'm so thankful it's over.
Side note: If Addison ever has to have surgery again (which I hope she never has to) we're totally taking advantage of the "cocktail" they gave her. IT WAS AWESOME and, I hate to admit, really made us laugh. She was three sheets in the wind! Haha! Keith was holding her when she started feeling really goofy. She would poke at his nose and laugh, then play with his lips and laugh, throw her head back and laugh - writing this makes me giggle it was so cute! I feel a little guilty for laughing but it made a huge difference when she woke up. She wasn't the blood-curdling screaming child we had last year after she woke up from her tube anesthesia, she was just groggy and calm. I can see why people love to keep Valium in stock! ;o)
