Peter loses his adenoids (and gets tubes)

We discovered in December that Peter had fluid in his ears and was not hearing so well. We got an appointment with our ENT doctor (the same one Collin had) and he gave us the choice of waiting, getting tubes in his ears, or getting tubes and taking out his adenoids. I decided that option number three was the best for Peter and we got an appointment in record time. He had his surgery last Wednesday and it went really well. He was a bit upset when he woke up but has had a good recovery. The doctor told me that the worst part of it would be his breath and I didn't take him seriously. Now I know better, who could ever think that such a little boy could have such horrible, horrible breath? It should be gone in a few days. Since he started feeling better he has become a little chatterbox.

In other Peter related news we also had his IEP meeting with the city schools last week. He has made tons of progress and we are fortunate that they will be putting him in speech therapy twice a week after spring break at a local elementary school. The program he is currently in will stop covering him when he turns three in the middle of this month and becomes eligible for public school services.
