Glad that's over!!

Abbie did great today during her procedure. She didn't want to drink the "juice"...so that took some convincing...but the nurses did a great job. We were put in a little room where she could "veg" out and of course, she only wanted Gigi (the most wonderful person in the world!). After about 45 minutes or so (I lost track of time)...they came and took her back. She got to ride in a wheel chair (just like her DanDaddy's) and she went back without any trouble at all! They came out every so often to give updates.

She talked through the whole thing. She had to be wrapped up for her safety-which I TOTALLY understand. When we got back there to her though-she got set in her mind that she was going with Gigi-and it was on. Not that Mar wouldn't take her...but she had a doctor's appointment and several things to do today...so planning just wasn't good on our part.

To make a long story short-for over an hour...from the time that I got her in the van to the time we got home...she was SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF HER LUNGS and throwing anything she could get her hands on towards my head! TL and Mar called to check on me a few times...and they got to experience how "wonderful" her mood was! YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!! She was mad at the world...but I had to keep reminding myself (as Mar did too) that it was just the medicine (she will NOT have that anesthesia again as long as I can help it!!).

We got home and she had some juice...watched some SPROUT (her most favorite TV channel) and took a nap. She woke up and immediately asked for Gigi so we went over so that Mar could help me with the demon child that I had brought home from the doctor!!! Bless her heart, she went through several roller coasters of emotions while we were there...but mainly she was just terribly GRUMPY!!! At one point, Abbie was having one of her "fits" and I asked Martha if she remembered the "sweet precious angel" that she used to have!! LOL...not any more!

Mar ended up getting her and Leacie outside and they played in the leaves which Abbie has not been able to do all season! They had a great time. I took her to McDonald's (along with the 2 Disney princess toothbrushes, new t-shirt, bracelets, and stickers...today at the doc, Abbie got "McDonald's money"...so we went and she had dinner. I let her play in the play land (which I never do!!) and she seemed to have a great time. We came home (TL brought take-out home for the 2 of us) and Abbie had a bath and went to bed...

Hopefully, she won't remember any of this in the morning...

I'm off to watch Dancing with the stars...

Have a great evening! Enjoy the pics that Mar shot while the girls were playing outside...
