JB did great on Wednesday with the ear tubes. The ENT said there was quite a bit of fluid behind his right ear. My guess is, his first tube only stayed in for a week and then came out. Everyone at the hospital was amazed how well he did. The anesthesiologist took JB from me and walked off. JB did cry a little later when he accidently saw me down the hallway. I did remember the camera this time!





He has been to speech twice since his surgery and both times he has had an awesome session. The first one she heard over 30 imitation sounds, more than any previous session. Let's hope things continue on!

B is out of school Friday and Monday. Therefore his class had their Easter egg hunt yesterday. Every child was to bring in 1 doz filled plastic eggs. She needed volunteers to hide them, so I volunteered. I headed out with 26 doz. eggs. I did not know of any others helping, so I called a friend who met me over at the park. We ran around like crazy for 15 minutes hiding eggs all of this park. About the time the kids were to show up, my phone rang. It was the teacher and I was at the wrong park. Yes, I had hid 26 doz eggs and now I needed to go gather them all up. It was a big park/area, but fortunately, not a lot of really good hiding places. Most eggs were very easy to see as you got close. I recruited two other people and we got them all gathered up in about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, the kids happily played in the light rain at the other park. When I showed up, some parents were humored and some not so much. Oh well. We got them all 'hid' on a baseball field and the kids did not seem to mind a bit. They were just excited to be out running and finding stuff. (To my credit, I came back home and pulled out both of the notes the teacher had sent home about the egg hunt. The first one said it was at the fire dept park. The second one said it was at the ballfield park. I guess when that first note came home I just put it in my head it was at the fire dept park and never thought about it again.) Needless to say, I think in the coming years, I will volunteer to help hide eggs but I will not be the parent that shows up with them!

Monday is the first t-ball game. Monday is also the day the other two boys will come and stay the week with us. Should be pretty low key (commitment/meeting) week but lots of running around town, picking up kids, doing therapies, baseball, homework, etc.
