Mia finally had her eye surgery! We've been waiting for it to happen for a long time. She was born with a clogged tear duct and it has been pretty annoying. Last Monday she was sick but they decided to go through with the surgery anyway. It was a very quick and easy procedure. They just stick a wire in her tear duct and clear it out. She was such a trooper considering she was starving and seeing all the people in scrubs made her want her daddy. I got to go back with her and hold her while they put her to sleep. She didn't squirm or cry at all when they put the mask on her little face. She was lucky to have an amazing team working on her. I was a little sad leaving her in the operating room but it literally was 10 minutes and I was holding her again. All the nurses and doctors said she was "phenomenal". If you know Mia I'm sure you are shocked because she can put up a major fight and usually does. She had those people eating out of her hand though! We aren't sure if the procedure worked because her eye still tears sometimes. We'll just have to wait and see.
The doctor put his initials above her eye to be sure to get the right one. She's holding her mask here and it smelled like watermelon and had stickers on it. These people know kids.

Oh Mia! what a tough kid! She is getting way too big! It makes me a little sad
What a little Trooper! she made up for it at the doctor's office when she had her ear infection, but a kid can only take so much!
Love, Gramma DeeDee
I'm glad everything went well! Love the pictures - she is so cute in that gown!
