Busy Two Weeks

Sweet Baby Lucy had her tonsils and adenoids out as well as some tissue in her nose reduced.  She is overall very healthy, but does not sleep.  There were nights over the past few months that I was up with her every 45 minutes.  It wasn't every night, but happened enough they diagnosed her with obstructive sleep apnea.  
She did so well the day of the surgery, and has done fairly well since. 


She made so many new nurse friends.  One told her she was the only two year old who she had ever heard speak in such complete sentences.  
The whole surgery lasted right at an hour.  I was so proud of Lucy as she was awake when they wheeled her away and she never even thought about getting upset.   She even reached out of her bed and pushed the button to open the operating room door.  She took her time waking up, which we were told was a good thing.
We had told her over and over she could have ice cream when she woke up and she knew exactly when she wanted.  She polished off a whole popsicle and cup of ice before we were discharged. 
 The past few days at home have been rough and poor John slept two nights on the couch so Lucy could be with me.  She hasn't eaten hardly anything and we had to set a timer just to get her drinking her water.  She is slowly beginning to eat more.  Good thing Nana Bobbi came to town to help!

Last weekend John and I went to Denver for our anniversary and to ski with Grant and Hanna.  The weather was perfect with 9 inches of fresh powder for me to get stuck in at Vail.  


And finally, just a few cute pics from my phone.
