Ear tubes are in

We left bright and early this morning around 6:00 to head down to Scottish Rite. Caroline slept the entire way and was in a pretty decent mood all morning considering she didn't get to have her bottle when she got up. The staff at SR were wonderful and we didn't have to wait at all. They kept us moving from one room to the next. I went back with Caroline while she got her anesthesia...wow that was so hard for me to do. I hated seeing my poor baby girl lay there screaming while having a mask on her face and then slowly see her eyes roll back to sleep. Then I met up with Blake and we went to the post op room to wait on Caroline. It only took about 10 min at the most before they wheeled Caroline into the room. The nurse warned us that there was a 50/50 chance that Caroline could come back to the room screaming and pitching a fit like we've never seen before or she could come back calm and quiet. Well...we got the screaming kid that was mad. We spent about 20 min trying to calm her down and nothing worked so finally the nurse said to just get her dressed and go home and that should help her. She cried most of the way home but by the time we entered the driveway she was sound to sleep. She's been more like herself since we've been home. The dr told us that her ears were AWLFUL and that she had so much fluid, swelling, and that her ear drums were bleeding. He said that 110% she needed this surgery and that she will be a new kid now with the tubes. All in all this was a good experience and the nurses and dr's were wonderful! Here's some pics of our morning at the hospital.
