Bye Bye Bump

Remember "the bump"?  Well today it went bye bye.  We decided to have the bump removed.  It was a "simple" day surgery procedure.  I say "simple", but whenever your child will be having surgery, of any kind, I don't think "simple" is a great word to use. 

Last night we went over everything he would see and do today.   The surgical group had a virtual tour that we used to tell him all about the procedure.  He was in and out fast.  He had a small defect in his abdomen wall and little fat cells had pushed through causing the bump.  The Dr. removed the cells and fixed the defect.

Here we are waiting to be called.


Getting our vitals checked


In our gown


Post surgery and having a grape popsicle.  Not a very happy boy at this moment, but Mommy and Daddy were thrilled!


Happier to have IV out and PJ's back on.



Ready to head to the car and go home.


Here is his dressing.  He can't take it off for 5 days and has to take it easy of the rough housing with Dad for a while.
