Today was the big day but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I was really dreading the whole thing after all the stories that I had been told. But!! I forgot we have a super good kid!! We couldn't feed him after midnight and had to be at the surgery center at 6 am. He could have cared less about eating because there was a whole new world to check out and it also helped because Gigi, Nana, Poppy and Papa were there. Oh, and there was also a little kid in a green pj outfit running around like crazy that Tucker found hilarious!!! He listened to everything that the Doctor and nurses had to say and of course smiled at everyone. He was only gone from us about 20 minutes but it was the longest 20 minutes EVER!! They warned us that he wouldn't be happy when he started waking up and boy were they right. He finally calmed down after awhile and he was released around 10 am. He played nonstop once we got home. I was really prepared to be caring for a "boo boo baby" all day but quite the opposite. You can tell he feels so much better now and he hasn't quit jabbering since we got home. So, surgery was a success!!!!
