At the Ears, Nose, & Throat Doctors

This is what waiting for the ENT doctor looks like when you first get there.

  

This is what it looks like when you've been waiting longer than you expected:)

One year ago this month, Gabe was in this same room in the same chair visiting the same doctor for the same reason: enlarged tonsils. This time his tonsils measured a grade 3 out of 4 in size. Last year they measured a grade 1-2 in size. Now for the waiting game. If they stay enlarged, he'll go under the knife come June. That would total three tonsil-less people in the family: the Knight, Francesca and now possibly Gabe. I am wondering if it is hereditary.  He also had a mono test as a precautionary measure to rule out that possibility.
