Liam = champ

I was so impressed at how well Liam did today..I had to wake him up early this morning so that we could get Chloe to CC and then head to Womack. We got there just a little before 8am and surprisingly found parking that was close :) We made it to he 5th floor and Liam was in a great mood, he was playing in the play area with his Mickey and smiling and "talking" to another woman in the waiting room. He would walk back and forth from me to the table and when I told him to get me Mickey, he would bring it back to me which was sooo cute :) 
Got into the hearing test and he did well, the audiologist explained that she felt the hole in his eardrum had either healed or was just blocked by a scab or blood clot. Also surprisingly we were there about his right eardrum and while she checked his left ear we discovered there is a fluid build up and tympanic screening showed that the hearing volume is flat so she wants to see him back in 6 weeks. 

Then we waited for awhile until the next appt at ENT. Sean met me in time to go to that appt with me which was good because it was the one that I was more worried about. They checked his ear and decided they were going to remove what was in the ear canal. They laid him in this thing they call a papoose and strapped him down, he got so upset but they were able to remove a blood clot and some other yucky stuff and saw that his eardrum has healed!! As soon as they were done I picked him up and he calmed down so quickly. He didn't seem to be mad at us or the doctor which was a big relief! I didnt want something like this to affect how well he dealt with dr visits. I am very happy and relieved that we no longer have to be concerned with his right eardrum I just hope that the left ear heals up and the fluid goes away because they said if not there's the chance of needing tubes in his ear and I really hope he doesn't need that! 
We found out at the appt that Liam had a fever so when we got home he got some tylenol and napped, he is now napping again so we will see how he feels once he wakes up. I hope we don't need to make another visit to the dr this week. 
Thanks so everyone who was thinking about him today :) means alot!!! 

Other good news is my car got partially fixed this afternoon after we got back home...the rest will be done on Thursday but needs to go to the dealer :/ 


now I'm going to plan on enjoying the rest of the night on the couch with my hubby and kids :)
