Addyson did great.






Addyson did really well today. When we got to the hospital she was amusing all of the nurses. She was being her normal Addy. She was saying Hi to everyone and being a door greeter like usual. The nurses even gave us a wagon to pull her in so she got to have wagon rides. I will try to post some pics. They came in and gave her an exlixer of tylenol and an anxiety medicine. We the nurse came to get her she could hardly even hold her head up. The doctor said that she did great and the both ears were severly infected. I heard her crying before they even called us to tell us to come back. She was very fussy for about an hour after the surgery. Since then she has been great. She has ate everything in site and took a great nap. We want to thank everyone for there prayers. I felt stronger today than I thought I would and I know that it was because of these prayers. We love you all and have a very Merry Christmas.

My baby is getting tubes!!!!

Addyson has been fighting a constant ear infection for the last 4 weeks. It has been absolutly miserable for her and in return to all of us. The doctors have given her 4 different antibotics and it has not cured or made her ears any better at all. On Wednesday (my 5th doctor visit in the last 4 weeks) they decided that this is an infection that will not go away unless we put tubes in. Therefore that afternoon we visited the ear specialist and we decided that on Tuesday 12/23 we are going to put tubes in. I am super nervous about the surgery. I know that it is easy and that the doctor does it at least 100 times a month, but she is my baby and I don't want to have to be put totally under in general anestetic. But, I do want her to perfectly healthy and in order for that to happen the tubes have to go in. I told the doctor to order me a valum right along with her medicines. hahaha. Parenting is definetly challenging in all of the things that you encounter. Please pray for the doctors and for Addy. Pray that she won't have any reactions and that she will be healthy and cured of the infections. Thank you so much. I know that we will definetly be able to feel the prayers. I love you all. God bless.
