Disclaimer: I have made this blog for the intent to show loved ones what we've been up to lately. I also want to one day print it out and have it as a journal for the kids. I am not doing this to brag at all. I just thought this is a great way for you all to see what life's been like for us and what we've been doing. I love to see other people's blogs and see their pictures and see what they've been up to. That's all I'm doing here. Thank you!

Lincoln gets fixed!!

OK, everyone, he didn't get fixed that way. It was his herniated bellybutton that got fixed. Wow! I know how that sounded, but no,we took him into Primary Children's Jan 17th and everything went really well. We had a 9:15am appointment time and the night before we had to feed him water starting at midnight and then after 7am we couldn't feed him anything. I was so nervous that we would have a screaming kid all night long, but he did great. He took the water fine and he was all smiles even at 11:30am when they finally took him back.
This picture was when he was coming out of anethesia. It took him a while but he did great. The worst part was taking out the IV. Why do they have to use so much tape? It hurt me just watching them remove it.
This was the "gown" we had to dress him in for the operation. They were more like jammies.

These next two pictures were right before they took him back.






This picture was taken right before we bleft for the hospital. We had to wake up Spence so we can have family prayers and take this picture, he was still pretty sleepy.

Oh WOW! We didn't even know! But then again, how could we? We are bad friends and never call you!! We are so glad everything went well and that he is happy now. I used to tend a little girl who would herniate her bellybutton. It was the worst! Glad it is over for him! Love you guys!
