We're home!

Just chillin before they take her back!
Well we are now tonsil and adenoid free! Addy did great during her surgery with no complications. The bronchoscopy showed just slight tracheomalasia just above the lungs. So slight in fact the doctor really doesn't feel it's significant at all. Addy had a few bouts of screaming crying which was awful, this baby never cries! All of the nurses are like "That can't be Addy, she never cries!" It was nice to see all of those wonderful ladies that have taken such excellent care of our little girl these past few months. Her regular surgeon, Dr. Ford, who we absolutely love, even came by to say "Hi". He saw me in the hallway and he's all "What are you doing here?!?!? What's wrong and why didn't I know?!?" It was too funny, he is so wonderful. Addy's only issue was the IV of course. I have counted over 20 bruises/pokes from where they tried to get it going. Naturally it ended up in her head and she got to wear a fancy little headdress to keep it on. Needless to say that didn't last and she ended up pulling it out last night. Surprise surprise! Well we are home and settled and very glad to be here and on the mend. I thank all of you that have prayed for my family faithfully these past several months, it's so comforting to know that she is being lifted up to our Father all of the time from all over the country! Those of you who read my blog I also please ask that you pray for some of my RR friends that have different things occurring in their lives: Charissa, Shelley, Meredith, Shawnie and many others who I know need prayer too!
Yeah I'm all done! Now what is this business on my head!?!?

This pic didn't come out great, but I wanted to show how sensitive she is to tape. You can see exactly where the tape was to keep her eyes shut! :(

Now how am I going to get this off?
Hey Mommy let's go home! I actually got a pic of signing, yeah! I usually miss it!
