After two ruptured ear drums, four different strengths of antibiotics, and MANY trips to the pediatrician's office it was time for our sweet little baby boy to get some tubes put in his ears. Today was the big day and he handled it like a champ. There was to be NO food or drink for 6 hours prior to surgery. I thought this was next to impossible, but Owen did wonderful!
All smiles even though his little tummy was growling like crazy. I think he knew today would change his life forever :)
All dressed up and ready for surgery.
The absolute best part for Owen was the
pre-op car rides. These helped pass the time and get his mind off his hungry tummy.
The surgery went great. We knew from when Brady had this done, that it was a fairly quick and painless procedure. Our sweet friend Katie works at Texas Children's Hospital where we were, so she met up with us while we waited.
Post-op pose. Owen is still very confused about where he is and who we are at this point. It took him about 30 minutes to come completely out of
anesthesia and recognize us. Not long after that we were all loaded back up in the car and headed home.
Two naps later Owen was enjoying his nightly
bath time with his brothers ;)
Here's to many nights of good rest from here on out (fingers crossed!)

The one of Owen in the hospital gown is too cute. I hope this ends the terrible cycle of ear infections.
