Recovering & waiting...

Kylie had her tonsils out yesterday. She did better than I expected before & after. She's feeling better than I thought she would but I know that it can change any day for the next 2 weeks. She keeps getting upset that she can't eat cereal. The Tylenol with Codeine made her crazy. She was seriously bouncing off the furniture, which she is not supposed to be doing. So they changed her pain meds to Loratab which seems to be doing much better.

Curtis took her to Wal-Mart, the gas station & the car wash at 9pm to wait on the crazy Codeine to wear off. When they got home, I asked her to take her sandals off. She managed to get one off, came running into our bedroom, pulled the baby tub out, started to take her clothes off, I told her to simmer down, so she ran over to my nightstand to write on my to-do list..... all of this was within 5 seconds. She just could NOT focus or listen with that medicine. It was funny & sad at the same time. She was nuts. But...I was thinking as I went to sleep last night *maybe I should try some & see how fast I can get the house clean!* Of course, my luck, I would just fall dead asleep.

I'm waiting on her next fever. I've read so many stories about the fevers never returning after having the tonsils removed BUT I've read some stories about the fevers never stopping regardless. So, it's a waiting game for me. I'm sure it will be for a few months. I'm won't know what do to with myself if she becomes fever-free. I really hope, for her sake, that the fevers are over.

In the meantime, here's what Conner's been up to
