Walnuts

Yes, my friends, that is how Paige's doctor described the size of her tonsils....and that is just their normal size. He said her adenoids were almost as large and that her voice would probably change quite a bit. Well, let me tell you that is the truth. She use to have a semi-deep voice for a 3 year old, with a fair amount of gruffness to it. Well now she sounds like she has been sucking on a helium balloon. Paul and I just can't get use to this new tiny little voice. But, she came through the surgery with flying colors and spent her 24 hour stay in the hospital determined to eat her weight in Popsicles, ice cream, pudding, and anything else she could get her hands on. She really never complained about her throat pain at all, but she HATED that "tube" in her ankle. They put her IV in her ankle so that it would be out of the way. Well, it was her nemesis until they finally took it out this morning. She complained about that thing above all else. It reminded me so much of how much my Dad hated his IV Pole, AKA "The Clown".
I'll post pictures of the little patient within the next day or so.
