Tenley's Surgery Jan 2011.
The time came for miss "Tenny Anne" as we call her to have her little accessory removed and the pit fixed. This was extremely hard on me. We had to stop feeding her at around midnight and then she couldn't have any formula after two am. When we got to Primary Children's we checked in and then waited for about forty minutes for a nurse to get us to take all the vitals and get Tenley in her gown. She was so cute in that little gown and so innocent, she had no idea what was coming. They called us to the operating waiting room which is where you wait to be called for your operation. This is where the doctor came and talked to us and the anesthesiologist. We also got to meet the nurse who would be assisting with the surgery too. This was the part that me and Adam thought was hysterical... this guy comes around the corner dressed from head to toe in green scrubs and a green hat and then some sort of eye shield mask thing. He had a gigantic red beard and he seemed like he would have the deepest voice but he had like the squeakiest voice ever! He had basically a tool belt on full of bandages, scissors and all sorts of operating tools. The entire time he was talking to us we were trying so hard not to laugh. He was seriously the nicest guy though. The anesthesiologist called us finally and we walked Tenley to the red line and said our goodbyes and he took our baby and walked away. It was so hard for me but I knew she was in good hands.
