Kylee's Ear Surgery

Today Kylee had her ear surgery. I dreaded waking her up bright and early this morning, fearing she would be grouchy cause we couldn't feed her or giver her any fluids. If you know Kylee you know she LOVES to eat. However, to my surprise she did amazing. We got to the surgery center around 6:45 am and at about 8:15 they had me bring her into the OR and sit there holding her hand until she was asleep. For me that was the hardest part of the morning. Not 10 minutes later they were wheeling her into her recovery room. Everything went smoothly as the doctor had predicted, although she did have another ear infection. This was her 3rd in the last 3 weeks. The poor thing. She slept in the recovery for another 15 minutes or so and then we slowly woke her up. At that point she woke up happy and quickly became upset. Probably alittle due to pain but more in part of her HUNGER! They initally didn't want us to feed her right away but she wanted nothing but her snacks. So they let us feed her and at that point she calmed down.. We stayed there just a few more minutes and then we were free to go. She has been such a trooper today. She has taken 1 three hour nap and another two hour nap. She is such an amazing baby and we are glad today is over. Thanks for all the well wishes!

I didn't know she had to have ear surgery. Poor thing. Our neighbors in Cleveland had this done for their little guy and it really helped with the ear infections. I hope she is feeling better soon!
