Today we woke up extra early and headed to Springfield Clinic so that Alex could have tubes put in his ears. We arrived and checked in, and then Alex had to get weighed and measured. He stood up on the scale and even stood up against the wall to get his height. He looked like such a big boy!! Then he had his blood pressure taken and was given some Tylenol with Codeine. He played around for a little while and then got very sleepy. He laid on me and then the nurse came in to get him. He was so tired that he didn't even cry when she took him away. That made it so much easier on Mommy!! We were only in the waiting room for about 20 minutes and they told us he was done. We spoke with Dr. Garcia and then went back to see Alex. He was crying, but as soon as I picked him up he quieted down. The nurse had me feed him to make sure he wasn't going to get sick and then we were on our way home!!
Surgery started at 7:30 and we were home by 8:45! We had some breakfast and then we all laid down for a nap. We ended up sleeping until almost noon! Surprised Mommy and Daddy both, but Alex had a pretty rough night last night so we were all pretty tired. When Alex was awake he was as happy as could be. He was playing with the towel drawer while Mommy made baby food and treats for her girls at work that unfortunately will be working really late tomorrow night! He also enjoyed a shoulder ride from Daddy and played with Briggsy! We ended the night with a feast of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans!!
We also need to mention a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Uncle Jacob today!! We Love You!!
