Surgery

Grayson had his surgery yesterday. He had another set of tubes and his adenoids removed. Hopefully this will solve the problem and mom also read that enlarged adenoids can cause sleep problems so maybe this will solve a whole bunch of problems. Everything went fine and the Dr said that his adenoids were swollen and blocking about 75% of the opening to his ear. Grayson keeps telling everybody that the Dr's fixed his ears and that he had to blow up the balloon(which was the gas they put him to sleep with) and he puts his hand over his mouth and nose where the mask was. It's funny to watch him tell the story. He had a pretty cranky day yesterday but he is back to his normal wild self today!!

FLORIDA!


We had a blast in Destin, Florida! We went with Mimi and Pappa last week and had lots of fun. We tried to do a little of everything. Stopped and ate cajun food in Louisiana where they had a stuffed alligator that Grayson was pretty impressed with!! Got to Florida late Sunday afternoon, did beach on Mon and Grayson was OK with the water but would much rather just play in the sand. He loved to bury his feet in the sand and then ask "where'd my feet go?" It was very cute. We went and ate the Hog's Breath Saloon - very good BBQ! Highly recommend it. We took Grayson to the Gulfarium in Ft Walton Beach on Wed. We also did a dolphin tour, pretty much did the beach every day, go to see some of the fish people had caught and Grayson learned a new word - redfish. Shocking I know - given his obsession with boats and fishing!! The only bad part was that Grayson got sick on Mon night and ran fever off and on until Wed when we took him to the urgent med clinic and sure enough he had ear infections in both ears!! CRAPOLA! He really did pretty good - but you could tell Tue and Wed that he just didn't feel good. But overall the trip was a success!!




Today's news from the ENT is that Grayson will be having another set of tubes put in and his adenoids removed. Not sure the exact date but sometime before the end of the month. So lets hope this works for good and we can be done with ear stuff. That's it for now. I have posted a lot of pics.
