Twos or Tubes?

We have seen a drastic change in Matthew's sleep and eating patterns in the last week. He is hardly taking a nap, in fact last weekend from Wednesday to Sunday he never took one. He is getting up at 6:00 a.m. instead of 9:00 too. He has been a bit more fussy and crabby and will just randomly start crying for no reason. He will also start shaking his head and pulling on his ears. He eats when he feels like it too. This is not Matthew's normal behavior, so we thought he might be starting his next phase of life. However, after pulling it all together we tried looking in his ears tonight just to see. He wouldn't even let us touch his lobes without crying, which tells us that they are tender. It almost looks like I can see his tubes in both ears just exiting the ear canal. So, we are keeping a close eye on him and his behavior to see if his tubes are actually falling out and to see if he gets an infection. Hopefully it all will pass soon...who knows?
