First Surgery!

Aaron was our first kid to have a surgery! (Wouldn't it be great if it was the last too) I'm not holding my breath though. Aaron had his tonsils and adenoids taken out. And sorry for the cell phone pics, but we had to document this somehow. :)
Adam ended up being the one to take him....it was SO hard being at home waiting for news. I would text Adam about every 5 minutes to see what was going on!
Here's Aaron before surgery.....trying to be so brave! After surgery! Still trying to be so brave!
He's been recovering really well. Mostly watching movies and coloring....and of course lots of Popsicles. (We'd loaded up on ice cream and yogurt and then realized most of his medicine says you can't have "dairy products" within an hour before or after of taking). That's great. So any ideas on soft foods that aren't dairy?! Poor kid can't live on Popsicles.


His friend Spencer got him a balloon and made him a......duck? We weren't sure, but Aaron's been wearing it as a hat! LOVE IT!

Here's to a quick recovery Aaron!
