Your First Surgery

 Mommy was more nervous than you were this morning as we walked into the pre-operation room at the hospital.  Thank goodness Daddy came too.  You have been pulling on your ears for as long as I remember, so today we were finally able to do something about it; Dr. Hirschi put tubes in your ears.  You looked so cute in your little hospital gown!
Daddy and I had to give you some medicine to get you ready and calm you down.  It definitely did what it was supposed to do, you were out of it.  I watched as the male nurse walked away with you in his arms, staring at him and slowly patting his nose.  I can only imagine what you would have been saying had you been able to talk.

It seemed like we had just sat down in the waiting room when they were calling us back to talk to the doctor.  Everything went well!  As soon as you woke up, they took me back to see you.  You weren't crying (thank goodness).  In fact, the nurse had to call your name to wake you up because you were just sleeping away.

So, Mommy can relax now.  The surgery's over and you have tubes in your ears.  Let's hope this leads to more sleep-filled nights!
