Thomas did great! Both tubes were replaced...the right one was just coming out so he was able to use the same hole as last time. The left one was completely out so he had to suction out the fluid that had accumulated behind his eardrum and make a new hole for the tube.
And so we begin again :)
He was completely hilarious waking up from anesthesia and had the recovery nurses cracking up. He told us "Good morning," when we got to the room and sat right up for some apple juice. They had warned us that he would be wobbly, and it was funny to watch. He held his cup crooked and we had to help him. Then he was drinking without hands - just holding the sippy cup in his mouth and tilting his head back. I almost took a sip of his juice to make sure that's all it was. On our way out he wanted to walk, so he led us, wobbly, crooked, strutting and carrying his juice. They were all in hysterics then! We decided that carrying him the rest of the way would be best.

Wow, he seems to be an 'old hand' at this stuff - at least he's not a grumpy 'old hand.'
Glad things went well.
Enjoy your week!
