Going Tubin'

Tomorrow is the big day---Jace's tube day. We have to be there at 6:30 a.m. and his surgery should probably be around 7:30. Of course he isn't allowed to eat after midnight so Mommy had big plans to stuff him full of food tonight. But in true Jace fashion, he refused pretty much anything. First, Mommy made Jace's absolute favorite food- pizza- in the hopes that he would eat to his heart's content. He took one bite and threw the rest overboard to a drooling Ozzy. Ordinarily Mommy would not allow Jace to do this and then get something else but this is kind of a special circumstance.....right? So she gives him his second all-time favorite food- nutrigrain bars. The kid has not refused a nutrigrain bar EVER.....until tonight. Sooooo setting herself up for even more problems in the nights to come (because this will never happen again), Mommy decides that Jace has to eat SOMETHING so she lets him have Oreos. That seemed to satisfy the little devil and he got one down, which in turn, got him to drink a little more milk. It may be a very long 15 minute drive in the morning!

Don't be fooled by all the food everywhere. That pretty much sums it up.......it was everywhere BUT in his mouth!


Mommy is hoping this bath lasts him for a few days before we have to start putting putty in his ears.

Sidenote: That is not blood on his head---it's the other half of his nutrigrain bar--the half Ozzy didn't get.

Some final 'pre-tube' Jace pics..........

Loving his Tonka Truck. He pushes it everywhere! He loves loading his Legos and hauling them around. He is getting great at putting his Legos together too!

Another one of his favorite things to do is stack anything and everything. When we are grocery shopping Mommy usually gives Jace a couple of things to hold to keep him occupied. This weekend he had all of boxes stacked up next to him in the cart.

Thinking he's pretty hot stuff!


That's all for now. We'll let you know how it goes tomorrow!
