The twins have been getting repeated ear infections over the past few months, so the doctor decided it was time for them to get ear tubes... The surgery itself isn't such a big deal, but the lead up was a nightmare for Mommy! She had to get up and feed them a bottle at 4 am, since that was the last time they could eat. Thankfully Mama D came along to help out. She has been a huge help ever since our stint in the NICU. Here is Brandon passed out in the nurses arms just prior to his surgery. Even asleep the little man has the ladies fawning all over him! Actually the nurse really took to him and didn't want to let him go... Thankfully they've both recovered well from the surgery and we're keeping our fingers crossed that the ear infections are behind us!

Hi guys! Just wanted to give you some encouragement about the tubes. Georgea has had them put in 2x (one of the tubes fell out too soon) and has not had an ear infection since. She had about 5 in 6 mos. time and now it's been almost a year since she's had one! Stressful experience w the limited feeding prior and the anesthesia, so I'm very glad it's behind you.
Much love to all the Lovells!
Amy
