Today we took Brayden to the hospital for his surgery. He needed tubes in his ears and his adnoids removed. Basically the poor kid has had non stop ear infections since before Christmas! Brayden did so well and was so brave... I think I was worse than him. It was hard to see him being put to sleep with iv's in his arm. We were able to come home right after which was nice. The doctor said that he had to use an adult syringe to get out all of the infection and blood built up in his ears and with all that he had been going around with about 40% hearing loss... like he had cotton balls in his ears. So maybe now he'll acutally listen when I call him! :) j/k His adnoids were also larger than they should have been so its good those are gone too. Gosh I am just so grateful for modern medicine! And I'm also grateful we were just at the hospital for tubes today. I can't imagine being there for a child with cancer or something like that. I feel very blessed to have a healthy boy!! We sure love him!
Brayden took baby simba as his comfort toy for surgery and we found simba dressed just like him after. We had such great nurses.... So cute!!
*Also, THANK YOU Stacy and Ellie for bringing over the balloon, card, and book for BB. It was so thoughtful and it made our day!! :)

Que sorpresa! no sabiamos para nada que lo iban a operar.. nos alegramos mucho que todo este bien ahora.
I had no idea anything was wrong with him. Poor kid! Poor mom and dad too. It's always hard to have to watch kids in pain.
So glad that it all went well. How are YOU doing? Everything going ok with your stuff?
Wish we were there so we could bring you dinner! xoxo
Oh my gosh!!! I had no idea Brayden had to have surgery. I'm so glad he's ok. That must have been so hard. I can't imagine it:-( I'm freaking out because Abigail caught a cough from her brothers and she's not quite three months. Surgery is so much worse. I hope everything is still going well.
