bye, bye tonsils

It's never a fun day when your child has surgery.  I couldn't sleep very well last night.  I had my mind on how things would go today, but I was also kept up by her snoring. :)  She had to have her tonsils and adenoids out today because of sleep problems.

OUR COMFORT ITEM + DAD'S PHONE A LITTLE COMFORTING TOO

JUST BEFORE SURGERY SHE WANTED TO TALK TO HER SISTERS...Ahhh, so sweet!

SHE WATCHED BUGS BUNNY AS THEY WHEELED HER IN + POST OP MOMMY CUDDLES

COLORING IN RECOVERY WITH GRANDMA G.K.

The rest of our day today has been filled with pain meds, oatmeal, pudding, ice pops, baby food, jello, sherbet and juice.  It's 9:40 and I'm ready for bed. :)

we went to tea

Today we went to a tea party with 6 other moms & their daughters. A sweet lady at our church organized this. We are reading this book with our girls, Just Mom and Me Having Tea. The book has 6 chapters with a tea party to go along with each chapter. We've decided to do one tea party a month, so one chapter a month. I committed to doing this with my oldest daughter. Our first time doing the book (this morning...yet another area procrastinated) ended up being a really encouraging time for us both.  The book gives you several opportunities to exhort each other and build each other up.  I love that.  Each of the moms is going to host a party.  I chose the Moonlit Night Tea Party, which is basically a s'mores night in the backyard...fun!
