Carson's Procedure

Let's just say prayers were answered and everything went well. We had to go to Primary's and have a specialist do the procedure. We went yesterday and they put a whole bunch of numbing cream around him and then we had to wait for an hour- so I had filled his whole diaper bag with toys that he could play with- how else do you entertain a ten month old in a doctors office. Then I left because I didn't want to hear my child scream. Steve stayed with him because he is so awesome. Well they didn't even have to strap him down- they held his hand and the doctor was able to just pull the skin apart (if any of you are wondering what procedure this is it is on his little boy parts and his circumcision scared wrong so we have to reshape things, usually by cutting it)- so yeah he didn't have to get cut and there was no blood and best of all Carson didn't even cry. I was so relieved and happy, now we just have to put Vaseline all over it four times a day for four weeks and hope it doesn't reattach so we don't have to do that again. Thanks for all the prayers. It couldn't have gone any better!

Look at that happy boy! He may be the first little boy in history to have such a big smile on his face after going through such a thing. :) Hurray for you guys, and good luck with the Vaseline for the next month!
