Surgery Day

This morning was a somewhat nervous one for us. Reegan had to go in for surgery to have tubes put in her ears. :( She's been having ear infections frequently over the last 6 months, and the doctor suggested tubes as a remedy (we were really glad we did especially when the Dr this morning told us she had developed double ear infections, even though one week ago she finished antibiotics and ears were clear). We got up bright and early this morning to take her in.

While we waited to go back to her prep room Reegan enjoyed a couple books on Mommy's lap...


And the waiting room had Sponge Bob on the TV...


She had to be weighed and got to stand on the big girl scale!


We got her all dressed in her gown and ready to go. She was SO good while we were waiting. She even laid her head down on the pillow on her bed!



She really enjoyed playing around the hospital bed. She had to check everything out!


And they brought in this tiny little cuff to take her blood pressure with...I've never seen one this small. So cute!!


The nurse took her off to the operating room and she was SO brave.


The entire procedure only took about 5 minutes and Reegan did so great! She was not a fan of the anesthesia, but you can bet that she will be cuddled and loved on all day today. It's never easy to watch your baby have to go through surgery, and though this was a rather routine and simple one, we couldn't help but be so thankful that the doctor was able to do what he needed and keep our baby safe. Hopefully we're done with the ear infections and the tubes will do their thing!
