Not exactly

No pictures today-

After Moose's surgery- we headed back to Grandma's house- where the doctor assured me-she would nap for the better part of the afternoon, rest quietly the rest of the time, go to bed early and sleep all night. -Grandma and I were going to get ready for the garage sale, go to be early, get up early, make lots of money- and have clean houses.
It all went according to plan- except for the napping, resting quietly, going to bed early- sleeping all night, ready for garage sale, clean house thing- we did make some money.

Moose napped briefly in the car- and then was up. Putting her eye drops in- takes 2-3 people. She is 28 pounds of squirm- she will take the chewable Tylenol.
We got 80% of the garage sale stuff out- priced and ready to go. The sale was slow starting- but we got rid of a lot of stuff. Baby clothing did not sell as well as I thought it would- but so much is gone. We are going to do it one more time- at my house. So last chance for me to get more stuff out. At least I can start with a clean house for the holiday season.

Moose was up at 3:30 am- yes- that's right- 3:30 am. She woke me up- "Mommy- Mommy"
Yes Moosey- "Mommy- I love you so much" It's so sweet- you can't even be upset that she woke you from a dead sleep. She then wanted potty time- so we went. She told me- " I love you two Mommies" and " I have 4"- I asked her 4 what????- " 4 feet- and then counted them all.

Double vision- no flames please- is hysterical. I feel bad for her- because she does get a little frustrated with trying to pick up stuff that is not there. It is funny when she asks the Mommy sitting next to me- "How are you today?" or tells us " I love you two Mommies" This is a common side effect- and I was assured that it will go away in a few days- (not by the same doctor who assured me she would nap and sleep all night)

My very modest Moose- has asked to look in the mirror several times- and when asked today what color her eyes where- she told me chocolate and red. She is a little concerned that the red will not go away. We talked to her about the red- and how Dr. Bean said that it will go away- and she needs to use her eye drops to help it go away- she told me "No Thank you- I already did the eye drops"- This evening it was a little better- and I hope that it becomes easier.

Moose is going to be out of school for at least 1 week- and maybe two. They explained if the stitches come loose- and the muscle is not attached- then they have to go in- look for the muscle and attach it again. I am opting to keep her under close(closer than school) supervision- and far away from playgrounds. We are even skipping the FCC picnic tomorrow- (we will miss you all)

Moose has come out of this with flying colors. She is a very confident little girl- she feels safe and loved- and faces every situation head on (except for food)-she had questions- processed the answers- and went in with a smile.
