FL Vacation

For Memorial Day weekend, Grandma Maloney took us on a wonderful weekend away. The kids and I headed to sunny FL - Tampa area. The kids and I on the plan. Connor was ready for a nap and Jo was so excited she couldn't nap. Breakfast at Gma's kitchen...then off to the beach. Our 1st day at the beach Playing in the sand with Grandma Jo got into playing in the sand and building sand castles. Johanna loved the bird that joined us for snack one day. We named her "Susie". We couldn't stay on the deck because the bird was agressive. Trying both in the water at the same time...it worked out well until we came in and the waves were splashing in Johanna's face. Thanks Grandma. We had a blast.

CW's Surgery

Tom took CW in this am at 7am while I took Jo to school. When I had gotten there CW has been prepped, had a little medicine to relax/relieve the pain, and was just hanging out with daddy giving High fives. A few minutes after I got there the anesthesiologist came in and then took Connor back for the procedure. Tom and I waited about 15 minutes and Connor was done! The dr. came to talk to us and told us Connor did great and that he still had a little fluid in his ear. Then we had to wait about another 10 minutes before Connor woke up and we could see him. Connnor was very, very fussy when we got to see him. He cried and was still a little floppy from all the meds. After 5-10 minutes he settled down and feel asleep. Just in time for the nurse to ok his discharge, change him, and go home. The poor guy cried the whole way home. When we got home Connor was still very fussy, but I think part of it was he was starving. He hadn't eaten since 7pm the night before. The nurse thought Connor would sleep all morning, but he didn't sleep a wink. We went to pick up Jo from school and from them on Connor was happy. Had a nice afternoon nap and was ready to play! We had a carwash (washed Jo's car, bike, and Connor's wagon) with our friends Val and Elizabeth, but Connor didn't get to play too much in the water even though he wanted to. (pictures to come)
