Tonsil-less Carter

Carter had his tonsils and adenoids removed on Nov 5th, so afterwards, we spent the day snuggling on the couch. He hasn't snored a bit since we've been home from the hospital. He's doing pretty good now - we're giving him pain medication around-the-clock to prevent any pain...and he's eating lots of popsicles, Slurpees, Jell-o, applesauce, and my homemade chicken noodle soup. His voice sounds a little higher, and he's pronouncing things differently...probably just from the swelling and lack of golf ball-and-a-half sized tonsils and adenoids in his throat. He's home from school for the entire week in order to heal and recover. We might be setting up his little Christmas tree a bit early this year...there' only so much you can do inside!
