Braxton's surgery went GREAT!

Sorry for just now updating on Braxton's surgery. I took the day off yesterday to be with Brax and I am trying to catch up on my work here at the office. I am just now getting a so- called break.

Braxton's surgery went really well yesterday...he was such a big boy! The hardest part was watching your child be wheeled back to surgery and knowing that it is out of your hands. Sitting in the waiting room makes a lot of things run through your head. Something that was on our minds a lot was thinking about the families that have to go through this everyday with their child. Thinking about the children at St. Jude's....it really hit home and it showed us again how blessed we are with a healthy child!!!!!

The doc finally came out and said that Braxton did great during surgery and he has straight thumbs!!!!! Remembering me saying something about the "knots" in his hands, well the doc said those were cysts from the inflamation...whatever that means. Anyways, this will never occur again and Braxton is good to go. He has to wear these so called boxing gloves for a week, and they have to stay dry! Ha...are you kidding me...like that is going to be easy! A 2 year old that wants to play with play dough, loves bath time, loves to wash his hands, loves to play in a puddle of water......yeah this is going to be a walk in the park lol!!!!

Despite the upset stomach he had yesterday from being put to sleep, and feeling groggy, he was still the same ole Braxton!!!!!! Here are some pics from yesterday after the puking wars we had! There was a surprise at the front door from his cousins Tristan and Trinity. He absolutely loved them and they made his day. Braxton loves horsies "Bank (thank) you Bubba and Triny"

Here he is turning back to himself and feeling a lot better! This was last night. A little surgery is not keeping him from playing "putball (football)"

He was so excited to hear that Papa was coming by to visit. All he wanted to do was sit in his Papa's lap, watch some football and see Lightning McQueen go fast!!!!

I wanted to thank you all for the special prayers, phone calls, texts, and gifts. All of you are so special to us and we thank you so much for everything!!!! Braxton is sooo loved and cared for and I am one Thankful Mother!!!!!!!!!!!
