Glue Ear?

So I took the twins in today to get tubes in their ears for chronic ear infections. They did great. Dr. Stan said that Macy has the smallest ear canals his has ever seen...she's such a peanut! He said that they both had glue ear...thick sticky pus that can only be removed surgically. This is probably why the antibiotics wouldn't clear them up. Sophie has also developed some scar tissue from all of the infections. SO happy we got the tubes!!! Pray that we can start having some sick free days!!

Oh...I really got to see a glimpse of the differences in the girls' temperaments today. Sophie happily went back with anyone who wanted to hold her and she woke up from the anesthesia without a sound...actually as soon as she opened her eyes she said "uh oh"...she's so sweet. Macy however needed the "loopy juice" to calm her so that they could get her back (picture 20 month old peanut drunk...so funny) and she woke up a terror. They couldn't have been more opposite!

Christmas # 1

Last weekend after our big holiday party, Grammy and Grampy gave the kids their Christmas presents. Sophie and Macy were very smitten with their new baby dolls. Molly adores her Tinkerbell doll and Jack will not put the Tag reader down. Thanks Grammy and Grampy...you did good.

TINKERBELL!!

Later in the week we did our annual gingerbread house construction. Jack and Molly had a blast making a huge mess and eating the candy before they could get it on the house!

Isn't she cute?!

GOOFBALL!

SERIOUSLY???

With all of you as my witnesses, if I have to deal with one more booger, snot glob, cough, diarrhea, tummy ache, throw up, teething pain, fever, wheeze or doctor's appointment for any of the above I am going to LOSE MY MIND!!!
