suuuuuuper henry!

so much fuss for these little ears!!

henry did awesome today!  the surgery went well and just flew by--we felt like we had just settled into the waiting room when they called our names to visit with the doctor!  sometime i feel so silly for worrying so much :)  the hard part was right after surgery when he was a little woozy and sore/scared.  he cried for about twenty minutes and we cuddled and finally had a snack, and then we were discharged.  we went down into avera's new cancer institute (which was awesome by the way...and so is the surgical center and all of the people that work there--they are all sooo very nice and accommodating and great with children!)  we looked at all the pretty artwork and waterfalls and before we knew it henry was ready to crawl around, pull on the plants, and play the piano they had sitting in the corner.  so we went home.  his surgery was at 8:15 this morning and we were home around 11:00!  i took these pictures right after we got home.  he just played and seem perfectly content...so far so good!  :)

he even took the time to.....SEND SOME TEXT MESSAGES TO HIS GRANDPARENTS TO REASSURE THEM THAT HE WAS DOING JUST FINE!!!!!!!!!!!  hahaha (when henry does something he goes all out, even texting i guess.) 

sooooo we are thinking........henry seems to have a fairly high pain tolerance and to bounce back from things pretty quick....maybe he is really a super hero, he does, after all, have quite a few super powers.....like melting his mommy in a big puddle of goo    :)
