Gavin’s first surgery is tomorrow!
I wasn’t sure whether to end that sentence with an exclamation point or a period or an ellipsis. There are all sorts of emotions wrapped up in this big day. We’re excited, but the fact that my 3-month-old is getting plastic surgery tomorrow is a bit hard to wrap my mind around.
I’m not as nervous as I thought I’d be, maybe because we’ve already been through a surgery with Griffin. It helps that the surgery is cosmetic, all right there on his face.
We’re waking up at 4am tomorrow and heading to Phoenix Children’s Hospital. The surgery should take a few hours, and if he’s able to hold down milk afterward they should let us go home that night.
We’re super thankful for the advances in technology that make this surgery so effective.
It’s hard to believe that this is our last day seeing this fancy little face!
Can’t wait to see his new smile, but I’m gonna miss this one 🙂
