Surgery Fun

At Liam’s last well-child visit, the doctor found a tiny white mass in his right ear. He called it a “cholesteatoma” and sent us to the ENT. The ENT said it’s not uncommon, and scheduled surgery to have it removed today.

I warned Liam a few weeks ago that after we got back from our Christmas in Colorado, the doctor would take the little white ball out of his ear.

On Christmas night, as I was tucking Liam into bed, we talked about all of his cool new presents and I asked, “Can you believe Christmas is over?” He answered, “I thought the dentist was going to take the white ball out of my ear when Christmas was over.” Apparently he was a little excited about it.

And really, why wouldn’t he be? He got to wear cool jammies:


And play lots of games on the ipad:


And then some more games on the Wii:


And then take a nice nap:


Then wake up and watch TV:


And roll on out of the hospital in a sweet ride:
