Cuatro's surgery
Thursday March 24th Cuatro had his surgery. He was scheduled to have his adenoids removed and tubes put in his ears. We had to be to the hospital at 6:30a.m but of course I was up before then because I was so nervous for my baby! The doc came in and gave me the run down of what was going to happen and we sent him into surgery at 7:45a.m. According to the doc he should have been back to me by 8:30, but 9:15 rolled around and I hadn't even heard from the doc. I was so glad to have my mom there to keep my nerves calm.
The doctor finally came in about 9:30 a.m. and informed me that the surgery itself went well, his adenoids were HUGE,and he had fluid behind his ear, but cuatro was not coming out of the anesthetic. He said that he was on oxygen and that he would have to stay a little longer for observation.
He was so out of it when they finally brought him to me! My poor baby was clueless to his surroundings. Around 4p.m he was still not well enough to come home so we talked about admitting him over night for more observation and to make sure all the anesthetic was out of his system. I was not crazy about having to stay over night but better safe then sorry right. He got to a point where we could take the oxygen off while he was awake but when he would go to sleep his oxygen level would drop, so back on oxygen he would go!
Finally at 7p.m that had us in a room in the pediatric unit. My little sister stayed with me and she was more than willing to snuggle with cuatro so I could get some rest!

That night we both slept 12 hrs, we were exhausted!
He is doing so good! It is amazing how much happier he is! He laughs all the time. The day we can home he started to sit-up! He is more responsive! I love my new baby!

Things Uno has learned in the past week!
Dos's head is hard....very hard and running into his head with your face may cause bruising!!!
Throwing a play pirate sword up in the air will cause a hole in your head when it comes down point first!!
