"What a Trooper!"

Reese had her surgery today and boy, what a trooper, we've decided she wins "Trooper of the Year," (We also agree my mom comes in close second!) Nick and I arrived at the hospital at 6:15 this morning and we were on our way home by 9:15! Everything went well according to the surgeon, and the best part was that they just used a mask to put her under so no ETtube, which made her throat so sore the first time! The surgery took about 15 minutes and then we had to wait another 15 minutes to go back and see her. When we got to her she was sitting up in bed holding her glucose water bottle in her mouth with one hand as if she was kickin back drinking a beer it was too cute! At first we thought maybe she wasn't going to get irritable from the anethesia like she had done before but that soon became a fleating thought as our little "angel" turned into a screaming, bucking, crazy baby for the next 30 minutes. She stayed that way until we got to the car, then she passed out! She proceeded to sleep for awhile and then woke up as if nothing had happened. She started crawling around pulling herself up, unbeleiveable! She is fascinated by her cast she keeps looking at it in amazement trying to figure out how this big pink thing got on her leg! We are just so proud of her! Thank you for all your prayer and well wishes!
