Tubes in our Ears!

Brave girl at the hospital before surgery!

With Daddy before we left for the hospital


Today Katie had a BMT (bilateral myringotomy)...otherwise known as getting tubes in her ears. She has had about 5 ear infections over the last six months, so we have been on a lot of antibiotics! I have taken care of a ton of other babies that had this done..we do about 2-5 a day in the ambulatory care center at the hospital where I work. It is really a minor procedure...but nothing seems minor when it is MY baby! She did very well though...she cried when they took her back, and was screaming very loudly when they brought her back, but then she calmed down as soon as she got to eat! We are so proud of her-she is so brave! Hopefully we won't have to have any more procedures any time soon!

Happy Birthday!















We had a wonderful 1st birthday Party! We had a lot of family and friends over, and Katie did a great job eating her cake! Sorry the video is so long, but it was so funny to watch her eat the cake. Her actual birthday is on tuesday, but we wanted everyone to be able to come so we had it this weekend! It even snowed, just like the day she was born...isn't that weird? Enjoy!
