Ear Tubes

It was an early morning for the Bloomer family this morning...we had to be at the surgery center at 5:30am for Jack to get ear tubes.  I didn't mind the early time since Jack couldn't eat after midnight!  The earlier the better and a less fussy baby.  He was pretty happy while we were waiting.  Just like he loves to watch waiters, he also loves to watch nurses.
Looking a bit nervous
They did the procedure about 6:30 and everything went good.  The doctor said one ear had some fluid on it and the other ear was very infected. Of course, sending him off for the procedure and seeing him wake up were the hardest part, but we somewhat knew what to expect since it was so similiar to when he was put under general anesethia for the steroid injection.


I'm excited to have a happy & ear infection free baby in the near future!  They have been infected on and off for so long, he has learned to cope with it and be happy but his hearing should be much better, too.
We had a lazy day with lots of this...

He was pretty fussy off and on (even though they said he should be back to normal), but he did get happy, gave us some smiles, and helped me pack.  He's been very clingy which makes me feel special :)
