CT Update

Good Morning!

I was going to try my hardest and post about his CT last night, but I was exhausted. 
I didn't fall asleep until after 10pm, and then I woke up Sully at 1am to eat because he could have breast milk until 2:30am.  Then I woke him at 4am to have Pedialyte, but he was not having that. LOL
He sat and cried for a few minutes and then went right back to sleep.   I have the best little boy!
Obviously, I wasn't going to go back to sleep, so I just got up and got ready.
Robert and I got everything organized and when we were ready to walk out the door, we put Sully in his car seat and took off.
I was so concerned that he was going to be a pain in the kiester because he couldn't eat, but he was so smiley! He sat and played with this toys in his car seat.  We checked in at the welcome desk and we were taken to the Par 4 surgery area.  They took Sully's vitals and the anesthesiologist came and discussed the procedure.  They told us that they generally intubate babies this age, so they let us know that that was a possibility.
They took him back and Robert and I were on were on our own.  We popped over to the CVCC floor and said hi to all of our buddies.  I made a beeline to the lactation room and used the hospital pump.
We grabbed a quick lunch and then went back to the room.  Sully was awake and wanting his mama.  They told us that he did so well that he needed very minimal sedation and did not even need intubation!  Hooray!  I was very excited to hear that.
He definitely just wanted his mama though.  He was still kind of foggy and sleepy, so we sat back and he took a snooze:

We let him sleep for a little while, then they took a last set of vitals, and we went back to my in laws.
Sully was pretty sleepy the rest of the day so we lounged around and snuggled... which was just fine with me. :-)
We are off today so we are going to go grab a Juicy Lucy at the 5-8 club and then Robert, Sully and I are going to go check into the hotel.  Sully and I are going to take a tubby and just spend some time together as a family.
We have to be back at the hospital at 6:30am because tomorrow is the big day!
Wish us luck and say lots of prayers!

I will keep this blog updated throughout the day!
