Surgery Update

So many prayers and thoughts and texts.  I am so thankful for our awesome friends and family and church family. :)  Kyler is recovering well. He woke up this morning in a great mood and is running all over the place begging for tickles.  I think he'll be just fine.

I am even more thankful for a heavenly Father who takes such good care of little boys and their anxiety-ridden mamas.
Kyler's surgery was perfect.  The surgeon was pleased with how things went and hopefully he'll heal quickly.  His little eyes look so sad right now and he'll probably look beat up for at least a week.
His pressures were normal!  (Praise the Lord!) which means he can probably come off eye drops for the first time since he was 4 months old.  He was such a good sport about his drops, but boy are we relieved.
When they brought him to me in the hospital, he was calm!  I'm not sure what happened before they brought him to me, but regardless, you could tell he'd gotten lots of loving attention from the nurses, especially since it wasn't a peds hospital - I think they were loving having "the baby" as they kept calling him.
So thankful for specific answered prayer.  Our God is so good.

When we brought Ky home yesterday,  he needed to sleep but he just couldn't.  So I enjoyed the snuggles (and held him through the tantrums since he was still too loopy to walk) and he finally fell asleep for the afternoon and slept until 6.  He woke up asking for pizza from the Target food court.  He was that specific.  So nasty pizza hut/target pizza it was.

As I write this, he's trying to wrestle with his daddy and yelling "Tickle me! Tickle me!"  Someone tell this boy he's supposed to be resting today...

Thanks again for your prayers!  One down. One to go.  Conor's surgery is on the 19th.
