Phew....we made it through. It is a nice feeling to know that it's over. The girls did very well though. They couldn't eat after midnight last night and they were so good considering they were starving! We got there at 11 and then Emily went in for surgery at 12:30. They gave each of them medicine to make them relaxed at first which was kinda funny cuz they acted a little bit drunk. :) Then they took Emily in, then Addy, then Hailey. It is such a quick surgery - 15 minutes! Emily did great - and only had fluid in one of her ears.... and for her recovery, she was kinda wild and crying but once she got a bottle, she did fine. Then Addy had fluid in both of her ears and she did AMAZING in the recovery room. She was just very quiet and calm and did great. Then Hailey was the worst of them all because she had thick nasty fluid in both of her ears which means she was on her way to another ear infection (which doesn't surprise me because she was healthy for one week - so she was due for another round!) But then in her recovery, I got a little scared because she broke out in a rash. I was like "OOOOHHH no.. not this again!" But it was a different kind of rash and it went away after we waited awhile. So she must have just been allergic to the blankets or something that they put on her. But she is better now. So we were home by 2 and then we fed them a ton and put them down. Emily and Addy are already up again and just more fussy than usual. I guess they should be back to normal by tomorrow. Thanks to everyone who has been caring and praying for us. We can really feel your prayers. Here's Addy, Emily, and Hailey in their little hospital gowns in the pre-op room.
