Tubes!

Grace had her tubes placed last week. Of course it was scheduled on the day of the big ice storm in Columbus. Mom came down to help and we had to be to the surgery center at 6:30am. We went to leave and couldn’t get off the front porch. The ice was coating everything. I finally slid down and had mom hand Grace to me. We managed to chip off the ice and made it to the place without any incident. Here is Grace in her little baby gown getting ready for the surgery.

 

Everything went well. She did great and was entertaining all the nurses. They said that most babies come out of the anesthesia screaming, but Grace was talking and kicking her legs. What a good baby!

Now that Grace has the tubes she can’t get soapy water in her ears, so she gets cotton balls in her ears during bath time. She doesn’t seem to mind them.

The other night I went to check on her after she went to bed and found her like this:

She fell asleep with her feet propped on the side of her crib!
