We have been planning on Chayse getting her tubes in for several weeks now on the 29th. I took her for her pre op appt and the Dr. said we might as well take Tate's tubes out the same time we do Chayse's. I thought it would be a good idea to get both done and over especially since Kenzie and Logan were both taken care of for the morning we would be at the hospital. I, of course, made Drew come with me to deal with 2 of my babies going into "surgery". No, it isn't major and it takes about 5.2 seconds, but I still get worried and fear my kid will be the 1% chance of something major going wrong.
We left for the hospital at 6:15 and the conversation on the way there went like this:Tate: I don't want to go to the hospull (Hospital)
Me: Tate, you will be okay. The dr. is just going to check your ears.
Tate: I don't like that guy with big fingers.
Drew: Who is the guy with big fingers Tate?
Tate: The guy who looks in my ears. I am going to break that guys big fingers. Make him bleed everywhere.
What a loving child we have!
We decided to have Tate get a little verced before the dreaded "hand off at the door" because I know him and he is very mean and angry when we doesn't like what is going on to him. I thought maybe him being calm and nice would make for a more pleasant experience... mostly for the Dr. (better watch those fingers) and the nurses. I am a mean mean mean mom, but my favorite thing about all of my kids being in the hospital is the loopy drugs they get. I make them put on a show and laugh hard at them! Tate was surely no exception.
The surgeries went well. Chayse screamed and screamed for about an hour and a half when she came out of the anesthesia. One more reason I was so glad Drew was there. Tate ended up having to have scar tissue removed and a patch put on his ear drum due to other complications. We are so grateful to the good dr. we take them too and I am very pleased to announce no one lost any fingers that day!
I don't know what's up with the video looking like that... sorry.

Good thing no one lost a finger. What a day!!Glad that all went well though.
Ok this is soo dang funny. I just read this at work and I laughed so hard it caused a scene and people came over to see what was going on. Tate absolutely kills me!!!
I am SO rude!! Every time I think to call you, something happens...Nothing major...but always something dumb and distracting. Plus, I am just RUDE!! That is sad about Tate and Chayse. Poor little Cutler children. I hope they feel better today and that we see them on Sunday!!
Okay that was the best!! I love that versed and apparently it worked great for Mr. Tate!!
So hilarious! I loved what you told me he kept saying about the bear too! HA! What cutie pies Lis!
I'm so glad to hear the surgeries went well. That's such a funny video of Tate. Poor little guy!
EEEKKK, I hated when Chandler got her tubes in. I was a nervous wreck! I am so glad everything went well. I'm sure you already know that tubes make a world of difference! That Mr. Tate is so funny, and Chase is getting so big!
