Getting tubes!

This past week Addyson was finally able to get tubes placed into her ears. She has been battling ear infections really since the beginning of the year. And even went into the procedure with double ear infections. Hopefully these wonderful little tubes will do their job and Addyson will be done with ear infections.


Addyson was so very brave at the hospital. She waved to all of the people walking by our room while we waited for her turn. She also laid very still when the nurse rolled her away to the surgery room. And she was still holding on to that brave face when the nurse rolled her back into her room after the procedure was complete and she woke up from the anesthesia. However, she kind of fell apart once she saw mom and dad --- no longer a need for her to be brave!

All in all we were only at the hospital for 3 hours. And the worse part of the whole experience is having to be ear drops into her ears 3 times a day. She does not enjoy lying still while we place the drops into her ears. I don't blame her.

A few pics of how cute she looked in her little hospital gown. Who knew they made them this tiny! Notice the "oh no" face she started making a few weeks ago. She found the horn on the car that we were able to push her around the hospital hallways as we waited.






Everyone at Childrens Hospital in Dayton were exceptional and made this procedure very stressfree -- thank you!!
