Tubes

No fun photos tonight, but an update from snowy Colorado. We enjoyed a family snow-day today. Both City Year and the University of Denver were closed due to a snow storm that has brought about a foot of snow to Denver, with more expected overnight. We spent the day playing, shopping (we bought a potty!) and reading.

M has been in great spirits despite a lingering ear infection. It has been one month since it was diagnosed, and we have gone through three antibiotic treatments, including a round of antibiotic shots to cure the right ear. We were at the doctor's office three times this week as part of the treatment. Because it is not getting any better, we will be seeing a specialist in a few weeks to discuss tubes. M's doctor (who is amazing, by the way) has said that she sees no way around it. We know that tubes are common for kids--I even had them--but surgery is scary. So we will see what the new doctor says on Feb. 22, and will keep you posted!
