When I first told Luke he was going to the Dr.'s to get his tonsils out he said, "Yay, I like to go to the Dr.'s." He was pretty happy all morning waiting for his surgery, he was even okay when we had to leave him.
When the Dr. came to talk to us, he said it took him a lot longer than he thought, usually it's only 30 min. but it took about an hour. He said the right tonsil was huge, and really scarred in there. Ben made me take the pictures of the tonsils off, so just use your imagination of huge tonsils in his little throat.
He cried when he was coming out of the anesthetic, and he said, "I can't smile very good." He did good as long as I laying next to him, when I would move at all he would say, "no, lay right here." and he patted the pillow.
All he wanted to do was go home. We had to wait a few hours for him to finish his IV. I'm glad they had books, that's all that kept him distracted. Now he's home and after a really long nap, he's doing really good. Now I'm just looking forward to him eating and sleeping better, he didn't even snore during his nap today.

Yay, I'm so glad that he's doing good! We'll have to come over and say hi to Luke, Adam made a little card for him. (I actually did, Adam just drew all over it.)
I am so glad things went well for you guys. I love the picture of him being wheeled down the hall. It is very impressive he was okay leaving you.
Wow, that seems like a major surgery for just a little guy! Glad it all went well, he's a little trooper! love that pic of you laying down with him... what a sweet moment
Glad he is doing well..we did the same thing a few years ago!
Wow, that's crazy that he had to go though that a such young age. Glad to hear he is doing good!
Poor little guy! Glad they found a solution and he's doing well :)
Poor guy, that's a big deal for a little kid. Glad everything went well. That's got to be crazy being the mom having kids get tonsils out- feels like I was just getting mine out. Hope Luke keeps feeling better.
Jaida got her tonsils out almost two years ago, she no longer snores and she actually eats better. I hope Luke recovers quickly, good luck!
Poor Luke. He looks so sad in those pictures snuggled up next to you and Ben. I'm glad he's feeling better though.
I'm glad things went well. Those little pictures of him look so sad. I am sure everything will be better in the long run. I love the bunk beds. We have boy girl beds too, I like your bedspreads. My kids just have blankets, I need to change that.
