Krystal Gets Her Tonsils Out - August 2013

Well - I guess I better get back to blogging. Our laptop crashed (again) - but, this time it was for good (or worse) - and we weren't able to get our pictures off of it for several months.  But - we were recently and luckily able to get a new laptop. So, no more excuses. My camera DID break in August - so only cell phone pics for awhile! 

 In the middle of August - Krystal had her tonsils taken out in hopes that she wouldn't get strep and be in the hospital so many times this year. I have to admit - I was second guessing our choice as she was very VERY sick for a couple of days. (But - we are in December now - and she hasn't been sick even once ... hallelujah)!  Right after her surgery, her tongue must have gotten numb from the anesthesia and she sounded completely crazy when she tried to talk -- and, believe you me -- this girl NEVER stops talking!  It was so sad and funny.  I was worried they had damaged her somehow. She couldn't keep her tongue in her mouth because she thought it was so ginormous!
 

She cried and cried the whole way home from the hospital, because she claimed that she just missed everybody sooooooo much!  She hugged Aaron and Marissa extra hard as soon as we got home :) - and seeing M sure made her day.

Unfortunately she was extremely nauseous for a few days - so much so that we were on the phone with the doc quite a bit.  Zofran helped a little - and ... check out how much her sweet brother helped:

Holding those fans in her face to help her not throw up.  These kids care so much for each other.
We are certainly glad that is over and hope like crazy that our hospital stay days are over as well.  :)
