Poor Mr. J is trying to smile here but it's not quite working. Poor boy has gone through the ringer. Or so he feels. |
When one is destined to spend a week or more on the couch recovering from surgery, one must put down stakes and camp out for a bit.
Makes it way more bearable.
Mr. M is also on a couch right by Mr. J but no tent for him. He is way too miserable. This has proven to be quite painful for him and the last two days and nights have been spent in a lot of tears. Last night being the worst. I'd get one settled down and comfortable finally and the other would wake up crying and in pain. They both took turns all night.
We're really hoping we've hit the peak of all of this and that the two boys start to come down on the pain levels.
On a funny side note. Two siblings have been complaining that they want their tonsils out too because they want lots of ice cream, popsicles, treats, etc. After the yesterday they decided that they wanted to keep their tonsils right where they were. Not worth it.
That's what I need! A tent! My days sound like theirs...on the couch.
ReplyDeleteThose days on the couch are so long and boring!! Better on the couch than the alternative though. You're keeping your baby safe and that is a big deal momma!
DeleteSo happy to see that J, loves his Quack. Does a teacher's heart good. So sorry that the recovery has been so treacherous for both of them and so tiring for you...gotta go over the hump soon. Prayers!
ReplyDeleteHe does love his Quack. He really likes stuffed animals so Quack is perfect for him. Thanks for the prayers. I think we are almost there......
DeleteThose kinds of tents are DA BOMB!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED making tents when I was a kid.
DeleteWould a tent help help you to sleep better? We'll craft one for you tonight--a soundproof one. Hopefully we have enough clothes pins and rubber bands to hold it together. ;)
ReplyDeleteI think I'd do better at a hotel...... just send me to a posh resort somewhere.
DeleteOh, the poor ducklings!
ReplyDeleteMay the healing powers of tents work their magic. Quickly.
Hugs...
Thanks Wabi. I wish there was a magical pill or something.
DeleteTents always did it for me. I loved them. But you could never trick me into trading surgery for ice cream -
ReplyDeleteNo way!! I wouldn't fall for it either.
DeleteTents were my absolute favorite as a kid! There was just something so magical and wonderful about them that just seemed to make everything better :)
ReplyDeleteSorry your kiddos had to both have their tonsils out - I hope they feel better soon :)
Our tents growing up were amazing. We'd fill the room with tents making them mansions with several rooms in them.
DeleteThese days I feel like I'm wearing a tent!! :D Big loose shirts to hide the muffin top. LOL!
