As many of you know Heath has had it all in his 16 short months of life! Reflux, constipation, seasonal allergies, eczema, and chronic ear infections! But despite it all, he still manages to have that infectious smile, hearty laugh, and killer big blue eyes that melt your heart!
Well, after one too many ear infections we finally decided it was time to have him tubed! It is a quick and easy procedure, but still hard none the less to see your child have to be put under and go into surgery!
Here he is last week pre surgery! Doesn't he look adorable in his little gown?!
He was NOT happy about the floppy gown or the bracelet on his ankle or all the people coming to bug him! Doesn't Mark look hot in his hair net and coveralls too?!
Mark went into the surgical room with Heath and sat with him while they put him under. He said it was so weird to see Heath breath in the gas, flop around, roll his eyes back, and fall asleep within seconds. After he was asleep, Mark came back out to wait with me in the waiting room. But then it was literally 10 minutes later and Heath was out and the procedure was done! It was a success, but Heath was super irritable coming off of the anesthesia! He had a grumpy couple of hours and a long nap but then he was back to his normal happy self in no time!
We are so thankful for great doctors and an easy recovery! And we are so blessed by this handsome, healthy fella:
"Heathy, where's your ear? It's all better!"

Glad it went well for the Heaterman! Now let's just hope the procedure stops the ear stuff.
