Tonsils and Adenoids, oh my!

Most of you already know, but Aidan had his tonsils and adenoids out today! It was a big day and we were all more than a little nervous... Except for Aidan. He was beyond excited, movies all day, all the ice cream he could eat, AND he was able to wear his jammies out the house AND rumor has it daddy is picking up a new Star Wars toy as I type, what more could an almost five year old want? Needless to say, the excitement has worn off and he's wondering why his formerly beloved Dr. Beck would leave behind empty, bloody looking holes in his throat. Yes, he looked in the mirror and yes, he was ticked! His first words in recovery were, "I changed my mind, I don't like those guys after all (the doctors)."

We're extremely proud of our little guy. He handled it all like a true champ, is currently on his third medium frosty from Wendy's. No lie! And was recently found wearing my sunglasses, talking and laughing to himself (probably more the codeine than his personality). Two weeks with no activity is going to be rough at this rate... Fingers crossed the recovery continues this smoothly!
