Minor Surgery ....

Aaron was born with an extra digit on each foot.( This is hereditary on daddy's side).  We had to wait this long to do it since Aaron was the only one to get out of the hospital with an apnea monitor and clearance from the cardiologist and pulmonologist was needed.
The podiatric doctor received all the documentation and Aaron had the surgery on the 26th of August.....  I wasn't sure how everything was going to turn out since I had to be taking care of Aaron but also the other ones want mommy's attention too.
So, for the first week and a half I did not allowed Aaron to stand (only crawling) and this actually delayed his walking.....  (he was the third one to walk). He had his follow up visits with the doctor... it healed nicely!


Before surgery......
(he was injected already by the anesthesiologist)



 1 hr &1/2 later..... @ recovery room
he was super thirsty...... he drank at least 5 cans
of apple juice while we were waiting on
 the discharge papers


 September 3rd.
(wearing the open toe "boots"  that the doctor did)

(surgery was highly recommended by the doctor so he could wear shoes w/out problems)
Good part: Aaron NEVER complaint.... ;)
Last f/up was today
