Grommets for the girlies

1st General Anaesthetic for these girls......easy peasy!

Ella was up for Adenoid removal and grommets and lil sissy was just down for grommets. Walking in to the hospital you'd never know they were about to have surgery, and walking out about 4 hours later, you'd never know they'd both just had it. Would never say kids having operations is cool and easy, but this went soooo well. Prayers answered.

Our bag all packed the night before...so pink! We had to leave the house at 6:30 (which really ended up being 6:48am) so mummy was trying to be very onto it



Just before we walked out the door

Arrival at the hospital carpark
 
 


Sucking the pre-meds pretty enthusiastically cause she didn't get her usual milkies bottle

All done. Cuddly for all of 2 mins and then all go




When this girl doesn't like something, she's sure to let you know about it

Ella Bella minus adenoids and plus grommets

So glad I got a pic of this cause it was a super special hour for me


 





So brave having the cannula pulled out
Home 5 hours after we arrived. Loving her new monkey friend that all the kids get when they wake up & cause Dallin went straight to bed for a sleep, she got sole reign of Netflix....and boy did she love it. Actually she doesn't stay on netflix....Make up Tutorials are her 'go to'

Mid-afternoon McDs before picking up Faith and Seth.....just for my op girls


Thank goodness for Health Insurance, thank goodness for private hospitals, thank goodness Joe could be there with us, thank goodness it all went well, and thank goodness the girls should have better ear health from here on out.

  1. So Ella did get a needle?! I thought you said it was just gas. Such brave girls ❤️ Would love one of those big cuddles. So special alright. I was holding Jules in sacrament while she was sleeping yesterday and thought it's so sad that I can't do that forever!
