Adenoidectomy & Ear Tubes




Noah had his 4th set of ear tubes and an adenoidectomy on Tuesday. He is a great sport! No food after 12 pm & no water after 6:45 am. Arrived at the hospital at 9:30 am - surgery scheduled at 10:20 am. He actually was not taken into surgery until 12:30 pm. Hungry kid. He missed 2 of his meals. Surgery went great. Out of the hospital by 2 pm. Again, Noah was a great sport as we shuttled around to pick up Isaac and take him to scouting, hit the grocery store and post office, pick up Griffin, pick up Isaac from scouting, take the boys to baseball practice, pick up from practice, take Griff to Cub Scouts and return home. Luckily my awesome friend Kinney brought Griff home from Cubs. Somewhere between baseball and scouting Noah's tummy began to hurt. We happened to be driving around in Bry's BMW. Noah "Oh my tummy hurts. I'm gonna fro-up!" Mommy pleading "Please please not in Daddy's car. I'm hurrying home. Hang on!" He did a little fro-ing-up last night but ending up consuming a meal and fluids by 10:30 pm. Today he seemed much better. I just couldn't help taking a few pictures. The little hospital scrubs are too cute:)

Noah is such a little trooper. I'm glad he had his little friends to keep him company. BTW, you're an awesome mom Cath.
