Resting Fort Building

So what do you do when you have your tonsils removed and you are still feeling no pain after a rough night?  If you guessed build a fort.  You are right!
I woke up with tonsillitis, so I am trying to keep everyone happy while feeling like death.  Ryland wanted to rest in the living room and watch cartoons while I rested.  When I woke up, I found Ryland playing in his "resting fort".  I swear this kid is all over the place.  One minute he is in pain and the next minute he is feeling like a million bucks.

Rough Recovery

I think all the anesthesia and pain medicine is out of Ryland's system, and he finally crashed.  He was running a fever and in pain.  We had a big fiasco with his pain medicine, and since the law has changed on narcotics a few days ago, none of the electronic refills will be honored.  
After a call to the doctor on call, we finally gave him enough Tylenol and Motrin to give him some comfortable sleep.  He was out before the thermometer could read his temperature.  Sleep well, my baby.
