It was a big day in our family - Donnie was a warrior prince today as he got bilateral ear tubes after months of ear infections. Of course over the last 3 weeks he hasn't had any ear issues, but we had the surgery scheduled for today. We went in at 6:30am and he was in surgery by 7:20am - out probably by 7:35am (or less - the timing is fuzzy for all of us!). It was a very quick procedure and the worst part was holding our baby boy while he was put under anesthesia and was in a panic, but he did really well and woke up slowly and peacefully, which the nurse said was amazing. He was super cuddly afterwards, which was what his parents needed! :)

Dressed in his hospital clothes and playing with cars while waiting. We had the procedure done at Children's hospital and we were so impressed with the service and staff - they were amazing and so helpful to us and so great with Donnie.
And, we knew D was going to be ok when his normal antics were in play with being silly and cute before surgery!
We were headed home by 8:30am and this was taken around 11am - he was a happy lil dude today and in great spirits. He did well without constant doses of meds and even sat still and helped us count the 3 drops that have to go into each ear 3 times a day! He's such a sweetheart.
