Today was a long day to say the least. Thomas' surgery went well and he did wonderful until they tried to give him a sugar water bottle when he woke up in recovery. We were taken out of the recovery room quickly after he started screaming. About 10-15 minutes later in our alcove, we were allowed to give him some formula and his mood drastically changed. He drank his bottle so fast I was sure he was going to get sick, thankfully he did not.
The nurse came to get Thomas a little before 10 and we were able to see him around 11:30-11:45 and we left the hospital at 1. We were there for less than 5 hours, one family had an 8 hour surgery to sit and wait through, we are truly blessed with healthy boys. Whenever I felt sad about what he was going through I looked around and realized I had nothing to be sad about, we were going home in a few hours. The surgeon called about an hour ago to check in, very comforting. Unfortunately, I got the impression that tomorrow will be worse than today as far as looks and pain.
Robert once again has led us to believe we have the smartest kid on earth living in our house. He and Lucas were watching The Bee Movie when Lucas asked him if he knew what a hexagon was. Robert replied with, "Yes, it has 6 sharp things." Some of his details are a bit skewed but he at least knew that "6" was part of it. :)
