Tube Day

We recently met with an ENT doc and decided that Owen should get tubes in his ears.  Today was the big day!  We literally rolled him out of bed and were at the surgery center at 6:45 am.  I was crossing my fingers that he slept until we had to leave because he couldn't eat or drink anything as of midnight last night.  He happens to take after me and wants to eat at soon as he rolls out of bed, but we headed straight for the car and he did great.  After viewing the fish in the waiting room (very exciting), we went back and met the wonderful nurses and doctors that did the 5 minute surgery.  They gave him a yummy little drug that made him loopy so he had no problem being taken away from us.  I was just about to find a good article in the waiting room when the doctor came out and said they were done.  He was still a little nutty and having trouble holding his head up when we got to see him, but in no time at all we were home.  We're snuggling and watching movies now and he seems to be himself! 
Here is our little patient in his hospital pjs!
