Everything went well yesterday.
Sat, Oct 24, 2009
We brought our princess magic with us to the hospital…
And then when all was said & done (if by said and done you mean WHO KNEW THERE WOULD BE A POST-OP FREAKOUT by the Tiny Dictator? She.Strong.) we went home & had some more princess fun:
Thanks again for all your thoughts, prayers & tips-for-surgery.
To my SHOCK this whole thing slowed her down not-at-all (nary a nap yesterday after being up at 4, surgery, & lottsa pain-meds) which is the perfect segue into the fact Im over here today talking about raising kids who like to exercise & be active.
Whether it was all my doing or not—-the Tornado is a living example of that.
Have a great weekend.
I know that we will.
so glad to read this.
Mizfit, I am glad to read it all went well.
All positive thoughts and wishes in your direction!
Sending hugs and all good thoughts!!!
Oh, bless, she looks so tiny in her bed! So glad everything went OK and she recovered so quickly. A sure sign of being in top tip health!
Send her my love!
Hope she continues to recuperate with ease, you get a chance to take a nice deep breath, and most of all, that this surgery proves to be the answer to her struggles. Take care.
Miz,
So good to hear it went well (well…except for the freak out!). Enjoy being princesses, both of you! And here’s to living an active lifestyle!
I’m glad it all went well! She may be a bit more subdued today… Good wishes for a speedy recovery!
GREAT NEWS.
I have to ask: were you ever into princesses??
Glad everything went OK – cheers to the mighty Tornado!
Back from reading your post.
LOVED the reminder of the importance of play.
I’m so glad everything went well! What a strong Tornado!!!
And I love seeing the princess gear!
I wasn’t allowed to have anything “girly” growing up, so I love getting my “fix” by looking at it… I always thought I’d have a daughter and could buy “her” all the things I had ever wanted… It’s probably a good thing I have two boys…. 
Have a great weekend!
Happy to hear she is doing well!!!!!! I hope she has a super fast recovery, and love all the princess stuff!
So thankful all went well & she’s back to normal.
Off to check out your guest post.
xo xo
I’m glad that all went well for your babygirl! I experienced the pot-op freakout w/ my daughter when she had an endoscopy at 13.
She cussed me out! (Luckily, SHE doesn’t remember!)
So glad it all went well! Do you get to share the tent?
I liked it. So much useful material. I read with great interest.
I’m so glad she is doing well! What a trooper!
I do get to share the tent…tho am so bent into quarters thus far I have no photographic proof of that fact
.
and andrea? thats exactly why I let her have barbiepinkprincesscr*p—–I figure why fight it?
and I KNOW if I did it would all backfire on me into a rebellious 22 year old who wore princessgarb 24/7.
(which actually could be kinda fun…)
I’m so glad she’s doing well!
I am so glad she is doing well! Kids are so resilient, aren’t they?
Glad eveything went well, have a great weekend!
Glad to hear it.
Now you can breathe easy
Kids should get a lot more credit than they do for their strength and ability to pick themselves up immediately… it seems as though we lose that skill as we get older…
I’m very glad to read everything went well. I’d have had a post-op freakout, too. =) Cute princess tent.
Thinking of you, Carla!! And your little one!
SO GLAD everything went ok!
Does this mean you had to drink your wine sitting like a pretzel in a princess tent?
Glad things went well!
Thank you for updating us.
You DO have an active little one.
Wow.
I’m so glad the Tornado is doing well. I’m sure she is a braver little patient than I am. Where’s my princess blankie…?
So glad everything went well. Enjoy your weekend!
Wowza… I’m so glad the surgery went well! That princess power sure is awesome!
Have a great, healthy (!!!) weekend!
Glad she’s doing well. Hope she enjoys her new princess tent.
I entirely feel as though I know your family so I was eager to see if you had updated us!
(What does that say about me? LOL)
Glad all is well.
I also enjoyed your guest post.
I hope that when I have a child I can learn to love exercising or at least not to whine about it
awww so glad to hear everything went well. That princess tent is so freaking cute
Loved the guest post! AND so glad all is fine & Tornado did not miss a beat. Why does that not surprise me!!!! Rest up!
Love to hear all is well. Kids are amazing. Things that would knock us on our butts don’t phase them at all!
sooo glad everything is well and LOVE that you took the princess blanket
Awe, so glad to hear that it went well! I remember my brother having that done when he was around 5 years old. Your girl is strong, just like her mama!
Glad to hear she’s doing well
Glad to hear it all went ok even with a little freakout.
So glad to hear recovery is well under way!!
SOO glad it went well!
Isn’t it amazing how much they DON’T slow down? Kids!
Glad everything went well! My little girl (not quite so little as yours at 20yo) is booked in for some surgery on Dec 8th, so I know how you were feeling!
Miz, do you ever have those moments where you forget you don’t “know” blogger people IRL?
I get that all the time with you and your stories
I tell my husband about you and forget we aren’t really “friends”
Glad all is well.

This is so important for me to remember as a mom:
modeling tenacity and overcoming roadblocks to healthy living.
Thank you for the reminder.
