Adenoids and Ear tubes

Ryan had his ear tubes and adenoids out this morning. I was so nervous going into the surgery, but it went much better than I anticipated. The recovery in the doctor's office was rough. Ryan was upset about the IV, the band-aid and he just wanted out of there! He did really well and drank all his juice, so they let us go home a little earlier than they had originally said. (Probably because he could not stop crying, and he was disturbing all the other patients!) Once we got him to the car, he was calming down. We stopped and got him some chocolate milk at Starbucks on the way home and he really liked that. He sat in my lap for quite awhile once we got home, but then he wanted to get down and play! He ate an okay lunch, took a nap and then wanted to go outside and ride his bike! We made sure that he had Tylenol all day, just to stay ahead of any pain that he might have. Seriously, I could see that people were praying for him--his recovery today was amazing and beyond anything we or the doctors expected.
