Cole's tubes were falling out and so he had to get new ones put in, and get his adnoids taken out. It was a longer surgery than his pollypocket shoe up the nose incident (remember it here) or his first time surgery of just tubes (click to view). Well, this morning we were all up at 6am to be there by 7. Cole was happy and unusually hyper and making all sorts of silly faces for me. Notice how his demeanor changes AFTER surgery...
When we got him it was 45 minutes later than they said it would be, so we were a little anxious to get back to his recovery room. He was crying and completely confused on what was going on. The nurses told us they had to hold him down to put on the gas mask and he was resisiting pretty hard, so that's what he remembered when he woke up. He head bunted the nurse when he woke up because he was still mad.... that little fighter!
We couldn't leave until he drank something, and he refused apple juice for 10 minutes, so the nurse brought in a popsicle which worked. He had to have an IV so that's why his arm is wrapped up, and he DID NOT like that thing on at all. I'd say in a day or two he'll be his usual self again. Poor guy.

Poor Coco! A day or two, huh? Aren't you gonna be a little busy in a day or two? Let's hope Grandma has her game face on!
I hate anesthesia on little kids. Kenzie was the EXACT same way and I didn't like it either. I sure hope his recovery is super fast so you don't have to stress about little Brock?? and Cole!!! Oh bless you Jamie, you are such a trooper. Hang in there girly!!!Love and miss you!!
