So on Wednesday Adam was scheduled to be a the surgical center at 9:30. I got up early because I had to go get my TB test checked and get some groceries before we went in for the surgery. Once we got to the surgical center we had to wait a few minutes before they took us back and had Adam change into a gown and started his IV. After we had sat in the room for a while the doctor came in and talked to us. I really liked his doctor he was really nice when answering all my questions. I thought that it was really funny because his doctor had on shiny black dress shoes with his scrubs. The surgery only took about half an hour and then I had to wait another half an hour for him to be out of the first recovery area so that I could go sit with him. He was pretty out of it when I first saw him because they didn't have to break his nose so it didn't even look like he had surgery. After about an hour in the recovery area they released us to go home.He didn't like me taking his picture so he kept pulling faces.
Yesterday his nose was bleeding quite a bit so we decided to go into the doctor's so that we didn't have to pay to go to the ER Saturday or Sunday. The doctor said that he nose was bleeding a bit more than he would like to see so he took out the splints a couple of days early. Adam was shocked to see how large the splints were when the doctor pulled them out of his nose. He was also very relieved to have them out because they had been causing a lot of pressure in his head.
Today he is doing a lot better a lot less bleeding and he hasn't had to take as much pain medication today. I just wish that he would lay down with ice on his nose more but I guess that would be really old after a while. Maybe by thanksgiving we will both be feeling better.

Field trip
On Tuesday Addisyn had a field trip for school and since I had the day off I got to go with her. They had been learning about grain so for the field trip they went to Great Harvest Bread. The girl that did the tour made it the perfect length for three and four year olds. She told them all the ingredients that went into the bread and let them touch them. She showed them the giant oven that they cook the bread in and the machine that they use to dump the dough out onto the table. The end was the best part they gave everyone a slice of bread or a cookie. After the field trip was over I decided to take Addisyn with me to Kohl's because I had to exchange some stuff and then to McDonald's to eat and play on the toys. While we were at Kohl's we decided to look at the shoe's and Addisyn found the perfect pink rain boots so I let her get them since I had $10.00 Kohl's cash so her boots were basically free. It was a fun day but it reminded me why I don't have kids I was exhausted when I dropped her off at her grandparents.
Some of the kids didn't want to pose for a picture
Spoon Boy
Last night we went to dinner at the Spaghetti Factory for two reasons one because its delicious and two because Fremont was playing the state championship football game at the University of Utah so we would already be in Salt Lake. Unfortunately I didn't get to go to the game because I had to take Adam to the doctor's but my dad and Calvin were going down after they got off work so I was still able to go to dinner. Because the Group of people at dinner was so large it took us a long time to eat so Austin found a way to entertain himself while everyone else was finishing their food. He decided to see how many spoons he could stick to his face. If anyone is looking for a new way to pick up girls this is the way to do it. The table next to us had about 30 girls sitting at it and Austin noticed that they were watching him put the spoons on his face and then a couple of minutes later they all came and stood around him and said that they needed to get their picture taken with him. When we were leaving he got one of their numbers mostly because his dad didn't think that he would do it.I think that Ann enjoyed her dinner a bit too much.

Quite the pair
Adam had his surgery today and everything went well. His nose is sore and he is really tired but other than that he is doing great. I on the other hand feel like I am about to die. OK not really I am just a big baby when I am sick. Like I said in my previous post I have a really bad cold and I feel like every day I am getting worse not better. Next time you need someone to take care of you when you are sick don't call me I am not a good nurse. I am supposed to be taking care of Adam but instead he has to take of me because I am such a baby. Good thing I only get sick once every four years.
