Day 275: Pre-Surgery Day

So this week is a little bit stressful for us because Little Buddy's belly button surgery is tomorrow.  We are starting to get a little anxious, not so much about the surgery (which will be very quick and simple), but about the anesthesia.  Ugh.  I will need to be a very strong momma tomorrow!

Today, though, we had to prepare Little Buddy for tomorrow's events.  Because he won't be able to go to school on Wednesday because of the procedure, we were able to take him today so he wouldn't get out of the routine.  I don't know if he is just doing better at school or if he was confused to be going on a Monday, but he had a great drop off and a great day!  He was having so much fun that he didn't even stop to take a nap.  He was tired after a full day and fell asleep on the way home.


Tired buddy.


The late nap was more than I could have asked for.  Because Little Buddy can't have any food or drink after midnight and because his surgery isn't until 11:30 AM, our plan was to let him stay up as late as he wanted.  We thought if he stayed up late, he might sleep in a little, leaving us less time to have to distract him from food.  And speaking of food, we also decided to let Little Buddy eat as much as he wanted tonight.  Maybe with tons of food in his belly, he won't be as hungry in the morning!


Working on a huge dinner of chicken, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, peas, peach pie, crackers, and so much more.


If nothing else, our plan definitely filled his belly!  He was so filled up after dinner, he could barely walk in a straight line!


Such a full tummy!



Big belly buddy!


All this eating and drinking kept Little Buddy up three and a half hour past his bedtime.  Now let's see if he'll sleep in that long too!

Night all,
