Well, we're home recuperating from our very first surgery... we can put that in the baby book. Audrey had ear tubs placed today, it was a very quick procedure, but she's still pretty upset. They had to put her out with anesthesia, which was traumatic...even though there was no iv, she didn't understand what the mask was that she was wearing and she fought the whole time. Probably didn't help that Mommy was sobbing in the corner. I knew it wouldn't be easy to watch, and it wasn't, but we got through it. When she woke up 15 minutes later (that's how quick the whole thing was), she was disorientated and cried for about a half hour. We got her home quickly and she's been upstairs sleeping it off. It's been a long time since I couldn't make her smile, and she hasn't smiled since we got home. I sure hope she feels better when she wakes up, it'll be good to have my giggly smilin' baby back.

To share some pictures!
Well, it's a gorgeous California day outside, and Cory and I are in the living room, on our laptops. It's a holiday, yet we are doing what we are paid to do every day, sit in front of an LCD screen and type. Our excuse is that the lil' one is upstairs sleeping. It's not like we can go surfing or para-sailing during nap time, c'mon now! She's not feeling too good, we fear it's ear infection #8, which her doc said at the last one that "if she gets another one I would really recommend the ear tube surgery." :( Not good. But if it would give her some relief, it would be worth it. Plus I hate every time she gets a stuffy nose, worrying that she's in pain. We shall see...
Hope everyone is enjoying their 4th! We're having a relaxing day thus far, and once naptime is done we're going to a friends' party. Then this weekend my parents are having a pool party, so that should be fun as well! The summer is well underway, just hopefully I can manage to enjoy while craziness at my job ensues. I should've put more thought into the role I wanted before signing up for my big annual deadline on August 30th. It just means my July and August are crazy busy, and that's precisely the time I want to leave work early to go play in the sun with baby!! I will still attempt to have a work-life balance, even if it means late nights on my computer...
I always feel like I need to sign off these blog posts, perhaps I'm an "old school" blogger, or just polite. So goodbye blog, hope all is well!
