drunk and a little bit deaf

Our little man has been having problems with ear infections since he was just a couple months old. I knew that in part it was due to dairy so I kept him off it but he still kept getting them. Finally I decided despite how scared I was to have him put through the ordeal of surgery I needed to atleast meet with and ENT and get their opinion. The ENT said he had chronic fluid in his ears and that it could eventually affect his hearing if it wasnt already.  We decided to go ahead with the surgery and boy are we glad we did!! Ryker always walked like he was drunk but I thought maybe it was a boy thing and he didnt care enough to perfect his walking,  he just wanted to get where he wanted to go quickly.  Apparently that wasnt the case. The same day as his surgery he started walking better and every day since he has probably doubled the amount of words he can say. So apparently it was affecting his hearing too. We now have a little mimicker on our hands!
