Madison is officially into Month 20

no more "teen" months for us :(

Madison had her 3-month appt with the ENT yesterday. Her tubes are still in & look fine. She has had them for a year now. Dr said that they usually fall out within the first year, but sometimes stay longer. If they are still there after two years, we can discuss our "options". I'm not sure what those options are since Willie took her to the appt, but I think it may require another surgery to remove them. I hope they fall out soon! She is old enough that the ear infections should not be a problem, and I would LOVE to not have to worry about getting water in her ears every time I wash her hair. And with the summer months coming up, swimming with tubes is not going to be fun for either of us. I highly doubt she is going to like the ear band she'll have to wear if she still has the tubes!

We are going on our Florida beach house trip again this year. I think we will try to drive since Madison is older. We're staying with the same group of families at the same beach house in Daytona Beach. We went in April last year & the weather was still cool. We are waiting until June this year so the weather should be perfect. Madison is going to have so much fun on the beach & in the pool with the other kids. Allie (3) and Haley (4) love showing new things to their "best friend" Madison, so it should be interesting!
