Reese's Surgery

Getting his gown on--he didn't like it because it was itchy!

He's sad surgery face...:(

Happy surgery face---he LOVED the hat! When we left they had forgotten to give us the hat and Reese began to cry because he wanted to wear it to school tomorrow. (Greg saved the day though--he ran back in and got him another one:) Way to go Daddy!

Playing with the cool hat

Getting pretty loopy...he was hilarious!

"My blanket is shining!!!" At the beginning of the video this is what he is saying --not sure what he was talking about:) ~we'll blame it on the drugs;)

Me waking him up after surgery---so thankful they let us do it this time because last time he woke-up and we weren't there....what a terrible feeling!

Driving home+ enjoying his animal crackers+ apple juice=happy/groggy camper:)

This morning Reese had his second set of tubes put in his ears. We had to be at the hospital at 6am and Reese was a bit nervous. The last time he had tubes put in he was 2 and doesn't really remember anything about it but this time he is a lot more aware of what surgery is!
We found out he needed tubes last week when he failed his hearing test 4 times! Poor little guy can't hear a thing and his ears have so much fluid in them that the Dr. got him in asap because the pressure is not good for his ears and for future hearing problems.
After we got him all ready for surgery (putting the itchy gown on:) they came in and gave him the "magic potion" which makes him super loopy! Last time he had surgery we were kicking ourselves that we didn't bring a video camera but no worries I didn't forget it this time and man did we get some good footage;)
Now Greg and I know that it's not funny when someone is drugged when they have surgery and actually it quite dangerous but he was just so sweet and we couldn't help but giggle right along with him! Enjoy the video I promise it will make your day!:)
We are home now and Reese is resting, eating a doughnut and watching a show--pretty much back to normal:)
Well anyways they say he should be good to go for school tomorrow---crazy right? It's amazing how fast they bounce back --lets just hope he gets sleepy soon because Greg and I need a nap!!!
