Eye Openers

Today marks 3 weeks since M had her surgery. For the most part she's doing great. In fact you wouldn't even know that she had the surgery. There is one(ok 2) little things though....the big one she's still not sleeping through the night. I've even gone as far as cutting her nap down to 1hr, which still hasn't helped, all I get is a cranky little girl after dinner. The other problem is about 5 days ago she started coughing. It's not continues, just here and there, but when she does it sort of sounds like somethings coming up with it. It gets really bad after she drinks sometimes. This of course worries me since she just had surgery on her throat. So I called the ENT dr about getting her in today or if I could just see her regular dr. They said if there times didn't work it was not problem so off we went to the dr's office today. Good things, her ears look great, her throat looks great, tummy good, all good. The dr thinks it's reflex, which I've know since she was a few months old she had, I just watched what foods she ate. Well, she thinks it may be worse then we thought and since M's pain levels are not normal it's hard to say. I'm hoping that the meds will work and maybe she'll start sleeping.
It's terrible for a few days(and still a little now) kicked myself for putting her through the surgery. It's like, did she really need it or did we just put her through that pain for nothing! As hubby says at lest now we don't have to worry about tonsils!

Today has been all learning about M! She's been in need of some new shoes for a week or 2 now. About a month ago, I found some cute sandals for her for $5. Well, she can't wear them(at lest not all the time), they have little heals on them! It's crazy how much that little heal throws off her balance and mess's will her sensory. She loves them, but can't walk very well. So today I was off to find some shoes she could wear everyday will out worries. Here's were the learning came in she's a size 6.5 to 7!!! She was wearing a size 5 sandal! I knew they were small but not that small!! And her new sandals are only size 6(though I think she's like me in sandal's I always were a half size smaller.) I found her these cute gym shoes for $10 at Target, I got a 7 so that she could wear socks and be comfy.
