No tubes yet!

As some of you know, Brett was suppose to get tubes put in his ears last Wednesday. He has only had one ear infection, but since December he has had lots of fluid in his ears that just won't go away. Due to the fluid, his pediatrician told us that he would not pass a hearing test. Then when we went to the E.N.T. we were told that his hearing is probably only about 40% on his right ear. No wonder Brett is hard to understand sometimes! Poor little guy! So, we were more than ready for Brett to have the surgery last Wednesday. But, just our luck, when we woke him up bright and early the morning of his surgery, he had an awful sounding cough and was wheezing, just like when he had croup. He even told us, "I'm sick, mommy", I knew right away that we would have to cancel and reschedule the surgery. We took him to the doctor later in the day and found out that he had strep throat. No wonder he had been sleeping so terrible the past few nights! After a few days of being on antibiotics, he was back to his happy self and sleeping MUCH better again. His surgery is rescheduled for next Wednesday, may 30th. Now if he can just stay healthy so we can get this over with!

Once he was feeling better, life went on with fun activities. In the past few days we've gone to soccer, Gallup Park again, the petting farm at Dominos Farms, swimming class, and checked out a beautiful park by the river in Dexter. Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera for most of those activities, but of course, I do have a few pictures to share :-) I love taking pictures! :-)



Here are some more shots of our little soccer player! 

These balls are all MINE! HA!







Notice Brett passing all the other kids to catch up to his daddy! Priceless.







Yesterday afternoon I got out the Lincoln Logs expecting to build a house or building of some sort with Brett. But no, my creative little boy had other ideas. Here he is making cars and boats :-)



And then when he finished that activity, it was time to make some music!
