Seth's Ear tubes 7/9/2010

Seth had a set of tubes placed in his ears, hopefully to help drain fluid from his ears to hopefully stop all his ear infections that he has been getting. From January to May 2010 we had 7 ear infections. It was a brutal winter and spring at our home, but hopefully with these puppies in, this year will go better! I will have to say I was pretty nervous, I know it is a routine procedure, but when it is your child it is a little nerve racking. I had tubes as a child and Ryan did also, so I guess Seth was just destined to need them! But I will have to say the whole thing was a breeze!! Except for trying to get him to wake up out of the grogginess. He woke up with super human strength, and I had two nurses for about an hour, helping me hold my child who had turned into a bucking bronco! We were all sweating in no time, but after a little while hecalmed down, and it was like nothing even happened. Sadly I forgot my camera, but I had my camera phone so the pictures are a little fuzzy.
Before the surgery Seth was in such a good mood despite not eating anything all morning, he was dancing and flirting with all the nurses. I swear at one point I think all the nurses in the surgery center were in a circle around Seth watching him dance, spin, and jump. The real fun began when they gave him some drugs to make him sleepy. He started to get really silly, and was trying to laugh but nothing was coming out. We were all just laughing at our drugged up little boy. I wished I had had a video camera, it was pretty awesome. But any ways enjoy the pictures from our first medical experience with Seth!
