Lost some Adenoids brought home some Tubes

Beckom went back in for his second round of tubes Friday. This time they removed his Adenoids also. Here's hoping for a break from sickness and antibiotics. I'm keeping my fingers (and toes) crossed. The pictures are from Frankie's phone so they are not the best quality.
He loved the gown and socks. He was so excited, even at 6 am.
Walking in like a big boy
Talking to the doctors with daddy. When it was time for him to go back with the nurse he took her hand and carried his blankies and walked with her with a big smile. He did GREAT!
Waiting in recovery with his IV and a little Mickey Mouse on the IPad. He had a hard time for about 30 minutes. Then he was just mad for the next hour because they wouldn't take the IV out. As soon as they removed it that sweet smile came right back.

Recovery with the Adenoids is a little harder than just tubes. We had to stay at the surgical center a little longer and the recovery at home is harder. He has had a sore throat and mouth for a few days and a little fever. His ears were so bad when they went in there that they drained a lot of blood and infection for a few days along with some pain. He has done great. He tells me he is sick or has an ouchee. He takes his medicine and smiles most of the time. I can't wait to see if he will start to feel better!
