Gillian's Tonsils

**Addition: We don't know the results of the Sleep Study yet. They said results in 2 weeks and it has been three. I think I will call. It was actually a really uncomfortable night...Gillian almost lost it a few times, but managed to hold it all together. They had no idea what to do with the onesie pajamas. Apparently no one has ever worn them before. They really should have specified. Once they got all the stuff on her, they had to take it all off because she needed to go to the bathroom. Oops.

We took Gillian to the ENT to take a look at her tonsils once her pediatrician told us her tonsils were 4+ in size. When Tim told the ENT guy what the pediatrician had said, he said in a doctor voice, "You do know it only goes up to a 4." But when he took a look in her mouth he said, "Wow, those tonsils are a 4+!" So he scheduled her for a sleep test to see how they affected her sleep.
Tim went with her and said she was incredibly brave.

Well, how did the tonsils affect her sleep. You just can't leave out the end of the story like this!

I was fine with the pictures. They were cute and all that, but then I saw the last one and thought poor baby. I'm sure it wasn't bad, but it just looks bad.

Uncle James had 4++ size tonsils.

We had to get Mason's out when he was 3 1/2 for size too! I hope all is well. I just caught up on your blog!!! I can't belive the character Gillian seems to be. AWESOME! Congrats on the job! I really hope you are loving it. That is great. It is great to leave the parenting to the hubbies and see how it goes. You won't regret it! love to talk...B
