Instead of surgery...

We went to bed early last night... about 9:30, and the boys were already in bed, in preparation for our 3:30 wake up to get to the hospital in time for the 6:30 check in. Just as I was about to go to sleep, I heard Owen whining and went to check on him. Just as I did, he threw up all over his bed, himself, and kept on going.... poor little guy. So, we weren't really sure what to do... check in at 6:30, kind of late to cancel the surgery. David called the doctor and he suggested we reschedule because we don't know if Owen is sick. So, for the second time, we have cancelled the boys surgery due to illness at the VERY LAST MINUTE... I'm sure they love us. Ugh.

Owen woke up this morning feeling pretty okay. Very runny nose, more then he has had- so for that reason too, I'm glad we rescheduled. Aidan is also very runny- and worse then yesterday too. He is also complaining of a stomach ache on and off.

Among all of the yuckies, we did have some fun today! We listened to music (the first picture is of the boys picking out their music on the kitchen stereo), and went outside- played in the sand box, tried climbing trees, we looked for flowers blooming and rode bikes.

Owen is now going on 2 1/2 hours of a nap, and not stirring, I think he is worn out. Aidan said he is tired, but stated, "It is not dark, it is not night night time!" so he will not nap. I even offered to nap with him (wasn't that generous?) he didn't think that was as good an idea as I did... so he is playing a game, and I am writing on the blog.

I'm going to go keep him company- here are some pictures from today:

  1. Finally had a chance to catch up on your blog. I completely forgot about the surgery. Bad cousin, BAD!! Sorry it was postponed again!! Let me know when you reschedule. Oh and what is that toy in the first Christmas photo. It looks like fun. All the different colored ?tracks?

  2. Surgery is rescheduled for July 12th. I look forward to it being DONE, but I am also not wishing the spring/summer away! I just want the little guys to be able to get it over with.
    The Christmas toy is a marble run... VERY fun, and put away right now. We found that marbles are just too appealing to keep in little mouths. (I understand this sensation actually, even now... oddly- too much confession?) so I think it will be put up for a while at least.
    Thanks for catching up!
