Update on Marissa and then some

  Marissa had her dental surgery yesterday. She was so nervous going to the dental hospital. She sat in the waiting room with her Mommy and Daddy. She got very thirsty but was'nt allowed a drink cause she was being put under general anesthesia. A nurse came out to see Marissa, and Marissa says, hey you I need a drink, lol. Well, this nurse told Marissa she would go into her lab and fix Marissa a very special drink. Marissa was thrilled. A few minutes later the nurse returned with a small medicine cup, like the size of a cough syrup cup, with a red fluid in it. Marissa drank it right down and swollowed it, then said yuck!!!!! LOL Emma asked what the fluid was and the nurse says, We call it Silly Juice. It helps the child to relax. So about 10 minutes later the nurse returns, and Marissa is all happy and giddy. The nurse says, Ok Marissa you ready. Marissa says, ready for what? The nurse says your an astronaut and we're going to get into your spaceship and fly to the moon, lol. Marissa looks at her parents and says, Bye, I'm going to the moon in my spaceship, and walks away with the nurse. Dan looks at Emma, and says, Wow, what was that stuff she drank? And they both start laughing. About a couple hours later, the nurse returns and tells them Marissa is fine, there all done and shes in recovery room. She said at one point Marissa's blood pressure went up very high, but it quickly went back to normal after some medication injected into her IV was administered. Marissa had her 4 top front teeth pulled, and numerous filling and crowns done. They kept her at the hospital for about 3 hours after surgery to make sure she was ok. She was so groggy on the way home. Soon as she was in her house, she went right to her room and fell asleep for a couple hours. When she woke up her Mommy had icecream waiting for her. The coldness helps the swelling go down. But she's doing ok, and goes back in 1 week to have stitches removed from her top gum where the teeth were pulled.

  My baby girl is leaving today, sniff sniff. Going on her little vacation for a week to my cousin Carmen's house. And is Rebecca sad about going away from Mommy and Daddy for so long, nope she ain't, she's excited about it, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, the little stinker. She has been running around laughing, smiling, dancing and shaking her little butt, saying I'm going on vacation and your not, lol

  I have her suitcase packed. We just have to pack up her toys, books and her fuzzy ducky blankie that she sleeps with everynight. I put together a little craft box for her. Crayons, colored paper squares, post it note pads, childrens scissors. She loves doing crafts.

By the way I wanted to remind you of those party crashers who just might crash our big anniversary bash. I have here another picture of them. Remember if you see them ignore them, and maybe, just maybe they will go away, lol Here's their picture:

  Well, I'm gonna go for now. I want to feed Rebecca, get her showered and dressed and go downstairs and visit Mommom I for a bit before my cousin gets here. Take care all and have a great day. Muahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
