He is amazing!

Ethan's surgery went well! It took about two hours (two LONG hours) and he is resting comfortably now. We got there around 8:30am and were able to spend about two hours with him before walking him to the OR. (pictures below) He was a awake and smiling :)

It is a surgery that is done everyday on babies so I was trying not to freak out but as the time went on I was getting more and more impatient and worried but the surgeon came out with a smile on his face and I was finally able to relax.

He will still be at the hospital for a little bit. One of the reasons we had to bring him in was poor weight gain. So now we have to figure out why he isn't gaining weight like he should be. They have a few ideas and hopefully we can get an exact cause soon and we can go from there. He has an awesome GI team following him and they are working hard to get him all better and get him home to us soon!

Here are two pictures from this morning...

On his way to the OR...he was looking at me and holding his pacifier :)
