Quent got the tubes in!

Its been one week since Quentin had the surgery to put the tubes in his ears. He is doing great!!
Well, he was doing great that day, so I guess it should say he is still doing great!!

Here's some shots of the cutie on that day:

He's all ready to go in. That hat is awesome and he loves it.
He would tip it to the side to cover one eye and say "Argh, I'm a pirate!"


Quent and Momma ready to go in to the OR. It is so great that one of us gets to take him into the OR and stay with him until he is asleep. And then they were right back out to get me back to him as soon as he was done. Which was super quick - maybe 5 minutes - then he was back with Momma.
Do you notice the new specs are on? I am looking a little rough that early in the am, but I've got the glasses on :)


Enjoying some juice while getting ready to go, he did such a good job, what a proud Momma I am. Right away he noticed that things were much louder, so that took him a little bit to get used to, but was a good sign that it had worked!
And he just charmed all the ladies everywhere he was! He loved all the attention! Especially since Aunt Jean was there to take care of us and all her friends at work there were falling all over this adorable boy too!

Thank you Aunt Jean for making sure we were well taken care of!!


We had planned on doing our NICU book delivery for Joshua's birthday while we were at the hospital if Quent was up to it, and since he was pretty much hopping all over and acting like his normal self, we went ahead with those plans. My Mom brought Jack up to the hospital to meet us. We did our book delivery and visited with some of our friends in the NICU, it was nice to do Joshua's Birthday donation all together.

Here's Tom, Quent, Jack and Gramma walking out of the hospital in the sunshine.
LOVE the holding hands!!

ps - Later that night Quent told Tom, "Daddy! Something is coming! Do you hear it? Something is coming!" After some talking and calming Quent down a little, Tom figured out that Quent was hearing the clock tick in their bedroom.
Obviously he hasn't heard that in a while.
Wow.

Poor little boy, now he can hear again! I am so glad that he did so well! He just looked adorable in the Pooh gown and check hat.
