I was a brave girl today. I had to get tubes in my ears this morning. And Momma was there with the camera as always to document the event - Haha!
We had to be at the outpatient care center bright and early at 6:30am ... That's EARLY! I wore a little purple hospital gown, and I left Momma and Dadda and Aunt Heather for my procedure at 7:30am. It only took about 15 minutes, then I went to recovery. I was a little groggy after it was over, but everyone said I did great!
We had to wait a little bit before Momma and I went back.
This is my cute purple hospital gown.
The nurse gave me some crayons and paper.
Momma wanted to put this "rear view" picture up ...
Aunt Heather colored with me a little bit.
She was so nice to come with us.
The nurse and anesthesiologist (what a big word!)
took me away in a little red wagon.
One last wave before my procedure ...
This is me after I was in the recovery room ...
We had to sit here for about 30 minutes before we could leave.
I'm glad to be heading home ...
What a morning!
When we got home, I was awake and ready go to! I played all morning, ate some pretzels and a Nutri-grain bar, drank some milk, then napped at 2:00. I have also eaten a great dinner tonight. I'm back in the saddle again!

Oh What A Brave Girl!! The pic with her little backside hanging out was precious. What a trooper. Put a smile on my face on what has been a long winter day.
Thanks!
I did not realize that she was having tubes put in. It looks like she did great and Mommy and Daddy survived it too! You know how much I love tubes! I think kids should come with them in! :) Carter has had them for 13 months tomorrow and has not had a single ear infection (and one tube fell out recently)!!! I pray that Reese has the same success!!!
I love the pictures!!
I'm so glad to hear everything went well!!!
It's Kenlee's Mom, Nancy. I'm glad your daughter did ok! I saw your blog address on your email. We have one, I'm slowly but surely learning about the blog world! So glad your journey today went well!
Im glad things went good! LOVE LOVE LOVE the backside shot! lol too cute!
by the way, I work with Terri Morgan that you go to church with and found you through the Ellis blog.
SO BRAVE!!! Natalie got approved for tubes in DC, and then a few days later we found out we were moving to Boston! So another pediatrician has to give us another referral. I hope to have them by summer! Somehow, I don't think Natalie will be as brave as Reese! She's not such a fan of doctors/hospitals since she's been in them a lot due to a TON of ear infections and her hip dysplasia! Let me know how things go!
