Emerson and Ethan - medical ward
Two quick updates.
Ethan had his cast taken off about a week ago. He is now in a leg brace, about the same size as the cast, for the next 4 weeks. It's a little easier because it comes off when he goes in the water or at night when he sleeps. It's also a little lighter so it's easier on him when moving around.
Emerson had his minor surgery on Tuesday. He had been having pretty bad ear infections so they recommended tubes put in both ears. I had originally planned on taking the morning off from work to better coordinate school for the older two and then to go with Patti to the doctor, but something came up and I was out of town. We heard that it can be a little emotional because babies usually don't like the mask to put them under, but Patti said Emerson actually started to laugh because the gas smelled like bananas. She had to go by herself, which kind of stunk, but all was fine. Hopefully it will help with the infections.
Just wanted to share.
