You all are so sweet for your thoughts, prayers, and words of encouragement for my little Kenner-Bug. Her surgery yesterday went very well. We're glad it is behind us so that she can heal, and get on with her very busy 5 year old schedule ;)
So, you knew it was coming. An update in pictures.
Sweet little thing was all smiles. The nurse asked if she was always this smiley. Yep. That's my smiley girl.
She was in a LOT of pain on the way home, and I felt so bad for her. As soon as we got home she had 4 popsicles in a row {lol} followed by some Motrin. That {along with snuggles from her new stuffies and three bouquets of balloons plus roses} seemed to do the trick.
We even got to color a little.
And big sis, Sierra, did an excellent job as nurse. She made sure Kenners was comfortable and had everything she needed.

The surgeon called last night to check in {I thought that was very nice, btw}, and he mentioned that the swelling and pain would peak today. Crumb, I was sort of hoping that the worst was behind us. And true to his word Kenners did wake up at 2 am crying and very swollen. Poor thing could hardly talk. She is now sleeping {somewhat} soundly beside me, and we're looking forward to another movie-watching, ice cream-eating, snuggle-filled day.
Hmmm, that all came out a little more jumbled than what I had hoped. I guess I'm tired.
Yeah, that's it.
