Monday Blake went in for surgery to have his tonsils & adenoids removed, and tubes put in his ears. We were told to be at the hospital at 9am, so that meant to eating or drinking ALL morning.... grumpy face says it all....
he was actually excited to go to have surgery, because he knew he'd get popsicles afterwards!
he did not however, like the little gown they made him wear
but then we found some cartoons to watch while we waited
and waited.... he didn't actually go into the room until 11:15. i took him back to be put under, which wasn't the most pleasant thing i've ever done. but he did great, and was such a trooper. i never once felt afraid or worried, like i thought i would... i felt very at peace the whole time, so thank you for all of your prayers and thoughts, i know that it helped! i didn't take any pictures of after surgery, he was pretty out of it, and i wasn't really thinking about the camera at all. but after a few popsicles and a short nap we were on our way home (gown and all, he would NOT take it off :o). since then he's been doing really well, the first night home he was running around playing... which caught up with him the next day, so we've just been taking it easy, eating lots of popsicles and drinking lots of clear liquids! he'll be back to 100% in no time!
St.Patricks Day
i have to admit that i pretty much forgot about st. patricks day, so no green pancakes for breakfast or anything, but i did remember that i bought the boys matching shirts a while back... and this is my attempt at getting them to take a nice cute sweet picture together... yeah right...
blake kept standing in front of adam, so adam would try and pull him down
and they both wanted at the camera, so they wouldn't stand still
and blake... just bugging his brother as usual... pretty soon adam is going to start fighting back, and he is not going to like it!
so i got a couple solo shots at least
HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY!
ps. adam is walking now!

Wonderful news about the surgery. A lot easier having it done now then when he is a teenager! Good Job Blake!!!
That is great news about Blake's surgery. I'm glad he is doing well. And I love your St. Patrick's Day pictures -- so true to life.
Yea for walking- little man! Oh and are those the shirts that you bought when we were at Old Navy in Seattle? I can't remember. But ps- my girls wore shirts that said Daddy's Lady Luck on them- its meant to be- Blake and Ella!!! :)! Oh and I LOVE that Blake wouldn't take off his gown- that is SO precious- he is just too dang cute!
My St Patricks Day pics look just about like yours:) Colton kept running away and Camdin kept pulling him back which turned into screaming. Got to love two boys, so much fun! PS so glade Blake is doing good.
I'm so glad Blake did so well! Love Adam's cheeks!
it seems like Adam was just a baby, he is so big can't believe he is almost one!! that is so great him and Blake are going to have so much fun growing up together and giving each other crap:)
