We are home

Jena did so well over night that she was discharged this morning and we are back at home a day or two earlier than planned (I actually had some books I was planning on reading, but at home there are things to do!).  She is very swollen and can only eat soft foods for two weeks but for her its all better than before with everything in her mouth.

She didn't sleep at all during the day after the surgery, went to bed at her usual time, woke up several times during the night to be checked or to go to the bathroom, due to the IVs., and then woke up at her usual time and has not slept at all today.  I on the otherhand took a nap yesterday afternoon in her room and then another nap when we got home today.  This hospital stuff wears me out.  Apparently, not Jena!

It is good to be almost done with this part of things...next will be braces.  Hopefully we can wait until the beginning of summer to do that.  We will see the orthodontist in the next month or so.
