Poor thing

Poor Philip has had an ear infection a month since May. It's been crazy, we just can't seem to shake em. Eventually, our pediatrician told us it was time to see an ENT. The ENT told us what we expected: Philip needed tubes put in both ears, and he needed his adenoids removed. (Didn't see the adenoid part coming, but maybe that's because I still couldn't tell you where adenoids are located!)

We had to be at the hospital at 6 o'clock in the morning. Hardest part to me was handing my sweet baby off to a complete stranger & not being able to hold his sweet hand during the surgery. After the surgery, the nurses brought him out, and they were all talking about what a snuggly baby he is & how they all got to cuddle with him. He got sick when we first got home, but the doctor seemed to think it was just his body reacting to the anesthesia. The next morning he was totally back to normal! And, it's been a month & a half since then, and we haven't had a single ear infection since! Praise the Lord!!
