Happy tubes!!

Andrew, this morning you had surgery to place tubes in your ears. Dr. Will Watkins did the surgery at The Shreveport Surgery Center & it only took about 10 minutes! The hardest part was the fact that you weren't allowed to drink your milk before the surgery. It was so hard having to tell you no, especially when you kept giving us the baby sign for milk & saying milk in your silly German sounding way. But thanks to mommy's new iPad we were able to keep you occupied with Mickey Mouse! You were slightly hysterical when the nurses took you from me and disoriented when they gave you back to us! After a few minutes, you realized who we were & drank all of your milk. Then you really wanted your daddy & he held you till we got in the car!

Big lip b/c my baby is thirsty and I can't do anything about it!

For the rest of the day, you have been, dare I say it? Happy!! You didn't even fight me tonight when I had to put in your ear drops! You ate 1.5 hotcakes & the entire sausage patty & a few bites of eggs when you got home!! I think you were hungry! Then you just played and laughed until you started yawning. You slept for ab 3 hours for your nap which is almost double your usual. You had a big lunch & ate 2 bowls of broccoli for dinner with your chicken! The doctor called to check on you while we were eating dinner & I told him the tubes must be miracle workers bc you just ate one bowl of broccoli & asked for more! Daddy & I were impressed that the doctor called to check on us like that!

We are so thankful that God blessed us with a successful surgery & truly hope this makes you feel so much better! Mommy wants her little man to be on top of his game!
