The Big One

Well, it's final. No more Hernandez babies for me. Today Mondo got the big snip, the big V, yes...a vasectomy. He was talking about getting one before Caleb was even born. He has been very set on only having two kids. I was a little wary of only wanting two but after all these months of having my little critters I'm good. :-) Anywho, he had it done at 10:30 this morning. They gave him a Zanax 5 minutes before they called him back. It really wasn't enough time to start working. I was going to stay in for the procedure but the Dr. kicked me out. He didn't want the liability of me passing out. That wasn't going to happen but that's his policy. He got 6 shots of lidocaine (that was the part he was the most worried about but he said it didn't even hurt!) then they waited 15 minutes for it to start working. Mondo said the actual procedure only took about 3 minutes. He walked out and looked tired but otherwise was fine. We're at home now. He's not really in pain yet but I gave him some pain meds and now he's laying in bed watching the Sopranos with a bag of frozen peas.
