Goodbye Tonsils

On July 6th both kids had their tonsils and adenoids out. They had not been getting sick but had HUGE tonsils that made it very hard for them to eat. So large in fact that Jacks were almost touching each other and the back of his tongue. YUCK! They went in with great smiles and were very excited, but came out singing a very different tune! The recovery was about a week and a half and the first week was pretty rough. The first few days one would be pretty good and the other would be refusing fluids and running a fever. Once we got past that it was just hard to keep them down, they had enough energy to run and play but crashed really quick and were worse off for it. There was a point where Jack hated me for taking his tonsils out and wanted them put back in, but all in all I think they are going to be better off for it.
