SURGERY AND SUCH....

What a crazy few weeks we have had as a family. In the last three weeks our dog got cancer and had to have surgery..i had a C section and then a week later we found out our little B had to have surgery on her foot. no more surgery! thankfully it was nothing serious, just a big cyst on the back of her ankle that made it so she couldn't wear shoes! It seemed simple, but because of her age and the nature of the procedure she had to have surgery with general anesthesia. So, since our deductible is met and will reset in two weeks, we had to have it done now!! Here are some pics of the event!!

B rockin' her hospital pajamas...

The back of the PJ's were my favorite part...so little...

B loved her 'princess bracelet' as we called it..she left it on for the whole day..

Hangin' with dad playin' Angry birds..thank heaven for games on his phone..we had a two hour wait between check in and surgery time...

The O.R. express that took her to the surgery waiting room..

We could not go back with her to the O.R. She drove this little car back there with the anesthesiologist and had a ball. She was like "ok BYE! See ya!" Way to go Primary's...

B chillin' out in recovery. She was pretty drunk for like 30 minutes after, but was happy with cartoons and the rootbeer slushie they gave her..

After the slushie was gone, she was ready to go home!!! Getting ready to leave.
She had a rough first day home but by that night was walking and twirling like normal. Trying to keep a 3 year old off their ankle..virtually impossible! but, all is well and she was a perfect patient!!

Jaxon is doing well! the transition to having two kids has been relatively smooth. B LOVES her little brother and her favorite thing to do is give him baths and help wash his hair. the only thing i am finding challenging is that they seem to both have their drama at the same time..when both kids are crying, who do you attend to first?? Other than that it has been smooth!!

Jaxon is 2 and a half weeks old! We had his two week appointment and he already weighs 8lb 10 oz and some of his newborn clothes are starting to be floods on him...growing FAST!!

He is SUCH a chill baby. Loves to be snuggled, hates to be swaddled..is much happier with his hands out!

YAY!!! I love that you posted pics. Jaxon is SO dang cute!!! I'm sp happy that B loves her Bro and there is none of that drama. I have no answer to which to attend to first.

What happened with Dakota and the cancer?! Is she going to be all right? B is such a champ with the surgery! How awesome are all the cars and wagons?! They really know their stuff.

Thanks for posting!! We love you guys!!

She looks SO cute in those hospital jammies. I'm so glad everything turned out well. :) I can't even imagine trying to keep a 3 year old from doing their normal running around.
