So last week Riley had to get tubes put back in her ears becuase of all the ear infections she has. Her appointment was early Friday morning so Jenny had the other two spend the night with her. I've never had a night with just Riley so I was very excited.
I met up with Jenny and the girls at Gymnastics (seems like we are always there) to pick up Riley. I asked Riley what she wanted to do together for the night? She wanted to watch a movie, so we went to the Hollywood Video and rented a couple movies and they gave us Free popcorn. We headed home after telling the other too bye which was very sad because Riley started crying because she was gonna miss her sisters. We get home and she wanted to watch it in my room. So we layed on the bed ate popcorn and had the fire going while we watched Madigascar 2. Which was a really cute movie. We had the best time together. They she got to sleep in my bed with me that night which doesn't ever happen, she loved that too.
The next morning (early) we left for the surgery center. Riley was in a really good mood and very talkative, like usual. She was dressed in her Pajamas and they let her bring Noni (blanket) and Glowie (her stuffed bear) with her. they call her name and take us back still with a smile on her face. they give her a cute little Looney tunes gown to put on and she is jabbering away. She was playing with a toy steering wheel and was driving to Africa. The nurses preped her (which really isn't much for tubes) and gave Glowie a hair cap and a mask and some booties. Finally it was her turn. She walked away with a smile on her face. She is a brave little kid. I went to the waiting area for 15 minutes and then finally they called me back and let me know everything went well. the minute I got there she wanted me to hold her and to leave. I carried her out to the car (she is getting really heavy) and we left to go meet the other two. Not even 5 minutes after we get in the car Riley asks if we can go to her Preschool Valentines party. so after we dropped Julia off at school. We stopped by for just a few minutes, yea right, we were there the whole time. You would have never even known anything was wrong. I figured she would be tired from waking up early and the anestia they gave her. Wrong. That girl was as hyper as could be. running around in circles all day. She did great. I wasn't worried that she wouldn't, but I figured there might be a little recovery time. Ha
