Tubes

Yesterday, Caroline met her new docter, Dr. Kallay at her 9 month check-up.  I couldn't believe that when we measured her, she was a 1/4 inch longer than Elizabeth was at this age.  At 30 1/4 inches long, she too, is off the charts in height.  She weighed 18lbs 9oz which puts her in the 50th percentile.  The most important part of the visit was the he cleared her for surgery today.


So this morning, we headed to the hospital at 5:30am.  I was a little anxious about the anesthesia, but Caroline was as happy as ever this morning.  They let me walk back to the operating room with her and hold her hand as she went to sleep.


Then, they took me to the post-op room to wait.  I waited all of about 7 minutes before Caroline was in there with me!  She was really hungry when she woke up so I fed her a bottle immediately.


She was back to her normal, happy self by the time we got home.


Her ENT said Caroline might not feel like eating much today.  She obviously doesn't know how much my children like to eat!  I'm so thankful for a successful procedure and a healthy baby!!
