Emily had her fourth (and hopefully final for a long, long time) surgery this morning. This one was to have her ear tubes removed since they were not falling out on their own AND to patch the holes up in her eardrums that were left there. The right side was an easy patch, but the left tube had migrated some and left a larger than normal hole. Hopefully this will heal on its own as well, but if not, she will be having surgery a few years down the road to correct it. While getting her ready for surgery this morning, Stephen told me he thought it was time to cut her hair finally (as he was brushing out all of the tangles). I had been thinking it was time lately and our family "hairdresser" (Stephen's Mom, Cindy) was in town watching Matt for us this morning. I can count how many times Stephen has had his haircut by an outside source on one hand... So this afternoon, Emily had an "impromptu" first haircut by her Nini! She likes twirling her new, lighter hair around even though all we did was trim a little off the bottom. She is feeling good this afternoon with no repercussions from the early morning anesthesia and is being spoiled to no end by everyone. Pictures below of my grown up girl!
