Cooper's Surgery

Cooper had to have his tonsils and adenoids out August 4th. We noticed that he started talking different for about a week so we checked his throat and his tonsils have always been huge. I checked his ears and he did have some blockage so we got that out and thought maybe that was it. Still talking different we checked his throat again and what do you know his tonsils were so big that his uvula was nowhere to be found. When thinking back he never did complain about anything, but he did start to drool a lot and his snoring was getting louder than daddy's. We took him in and they said both tonsils and adenoids need to come out next week. We were really surprised that they needed to come out so soon, but they told us that kids can have sleep apnea and that they could stop breathing.

He did great and I am so proud of our boy! He really enjoyed the ice cream and popsicles. Those tonsils were ginormous. I can't believe he could even swallow with those things in there.
