After several months and many many trips to the doctor, Hampton finally got referred to the ENT for tubes to be put in his ears. We got the referral to go see Dr. Thompson on the 21st, but after going back to the doctor Tuesday, they called and got us an appointment for Thursday morning. When we went to schedule the procedure, Dr. Thompson asked if I could be there the next morning at 6:15. I said, "of course." So, we were off and headed to the surgery center at 6 am Friday morning. Hampton all strapped in and ready to go. He couldn't figure out why we were waking him up so early and putting him in that carseat. He couldn't eat or drink anything before, so luckily, he was very good on the way and when we got there.
This is right when we got there and before I got him out of his carseat.

Getting his hospital anklet/bracelet and gown on...
Such a cutie in his gown
Not sure what all this is about!
I was so upset when they took him back because he had no idea what was about to happen. It was so sad. But, he was only back there for 7 minutes when the doctor came out and said he was done and heading to recovery. He said everything went very well! Yay!!!
When they called us back to see him, I walked into the recovery area and immediately heard him crying. It was the most pitiful cry. You could tell he just didn't like coming out of the anesthesia. It was the saddest thing ever. He just wanted me to hold him. Even when we got out to the car he just laid his head on my shoulder and didn't want me to put him down. Daddy made me put him in the carseat though - Boo, Daddy! I could have just sat in the parking lot and held him until he was ready, but daddy made me put him in - uggh!
Anyway, he cried a little on the way home and then fell asleep. He woke up when we got home, he ate and then went back to bed - and so did I!
After a good nap, he is was fine!
