Christmas with Grandpa

Christmas Day
The boys a wonderful Christmas. For Christmas Eve we went to church and then to a Christmas Party. The boys didn't get to bed until very late, and didn't sleep in at all! Ashton and Jackson were up bright and early, woke us up, and made us wake TJ up (he would have slept in). They were so excited to open their presents. They loved what they received from Santa.

Thomas' Secret Santa
Thomas received his gift from his online Secret Santa. He LOVES opening gifts. His friend Grady sent him a Fridge DJ, made by Leap. It is awesome. He loves it and rocks out to it daily! Our favorite song, "Birdie Bye-Bye." Thanks Grady!!!!!

Coach Daddy
The boys adore watching their daddy coach, all except Thomas. Once he spotted his dad he went crazy. He is going through a daddy phase, where he wants dad all the time. It's sweet, except when Dad is at work, we had to leave at the end of the second quarter of the Varsity game because TJ screamed bloody murder. It was a little embarrassing, to say the least.

Cool Views From Our Room
We had a great view from our room. We saw some really amazing things, like the LifeFlight helicopter.
We saw the moon and Jupiter and Venus. At first I thought they were really bright stars. I am so glad I was able to take a picture of such a cool view of the night sky.
The following morning an eagle flew right by our window, circled and flew by again. It was crazy!

Surgery Went Well
The surgery itself only took an hour. He had his tonsils and adenoids out. The surgery went fine. TJ did experience a bronchial spasm, but they were able to get it under control. He did have a croupy cough post surgical and needed albuterol every 6 hours. He was in a lot of pain, which made him cry, which made him cough, which made him cry even harder. He kept gaging, coughing, and then would dry heave. The OR nurses said it was gas, the room nurse thought he was nauseous. She wanted him to have anti-nausea medicine, but then forgot to give it to him. When he would heave he held the little pink cup to his mouth and just cried into it. His mouth hurt, so he didn't want to swallow, so he held a wash cloth to his mouth to absorb the drool. Poor baby.
