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!

I can imagine Macy on the loopy juice and laughing her hilarious laugh :) I can relate to having a child wake up after surgery not too happy...UGH! Max wasn't a happy camper...trying to rip the i.v. out of his arm...geesh!
