My little chipmunk boy...

First of all, it is finally the beautiful day I've been wishing for! I haven't been out in it much though, as my boy got a wisdom tooth removed this morning (yeah just one---lucky him!) and I've been taking care of him. Getting him pudding and mashed potatoes (they are the best when you have your wisdom teeth out cause they taste like real food!) and yes, even changing the gauze in his mouth and not being too grossed out by the blood, miraculously. Maybe I will survive being a mother someday. ;-) His surgery went well and he wasn't really even very groggy or anything afterward and I didn't faint when I talked to the doctor...though I did have to fight it off once when she was talking about taking the tooth out. So, anyhow. All went well and now our little family is free of all unwanted wisdom...teeth.  Here's a picture of his swollen face, which actually isn't very swollen at all. I'm sure he'll love that I posted one. As you can tell by the picture, he was thrilled to be capturing this moment in his life. Well, back to hanging out with the patient...the best part of this all is I got to spend all day with him!

Ha! Great picture. Do you have to squirt the empty hole with that syringe of water? I remember that. Weird feeling. Get well soon Ty! Milk it for all it's worth!

Hmm... Yup, that's him. He looks about the same. =) Good job taking care of him, Min!
