Tubes...

On our way to the Surgery Center Waiting to go back to surgery, watching his favorite movie Cars

Hard to see, but the hospital ID band on his ankle

Having a well deserved breakfast :)

Well, after many ear infections, the decision was made to put tubes in Clayton's ears. So Friday morning we got up early and headed to the surgery center at 6:30 AM. I must tell you that as a mommy, I was dreading this!!!! I don't care how minor of a procedure it is, when it is your baby, nothing is minor. Of course your nervous about the anesthesia, the procedure, and putting your child in someone elses hands. The anesthesiologist came and talked with us and Clayton...Clayton of course was all smiles :) He then took him back with his Pie pie (pacifier, BB (blanket), and his Woody doll from Toy Story. He of course cried for Mama...which broke my heart! Good news is that less than 10 minutes later, Dr. Wahle came out and told us the procedure was over and all went well. One minute later, the nurse came and got us. When we got to the recovery room a nurse was rocking Clayton, he looked so sweet. She said she thought she would just keep him :) I must say I can't blame her. I took over the rocking of course and it took him a little bit to come out of the anesthesia...made me teary eyed again to see him. Thank God it is just a minor procedure and all went well. Once we got home, it was like nothing ever happened...he was quite hungry and thirsty though from not being able to eat or drink, so that was the first thing he did!
