Tanner and Carter both had their tonsils and adenoids taken out last Friday. Since the same doctor did both of their surgeries they had to take turns. Tanner decided that he would go first and get it over with. Funny thing is: he was excited to have surgery. He may feel different now that it is over with and he is left with a sore throat:)
Carter was a little scared in the morning, but the longer we were at the hospital the more relaxed he was. He let us take tons of pictures of him:)
Here is Tanner just minutes after waking up. He was trying hard not to cry. He said that he wasn't in pain, but that he felt funny. I can't believe I got him to smile:)
Here is Carter just after waking up. This little boy was trying so hard to be brave and cried for just a few minutes. Then he realized that he could watch cartoons and everything was great:)
They were lucky enough to share a room!
They both are doing so well. Carter has completely bounced back and we have to keep reminding him to take it easy. Tanner on the other hand is having a little harder time. He is asking for his pain meds every 6 hours and really hasn't left the couch. We have watched a lot of movies and have had tons of Popsicles around here. Hopefully in a few days they will both be well enough to go do something fun! I love you boys!
