SAM's 1st Birthday & Upcoming surgery news

Samudra (Sam) turned 1 year old yesterday (April 20th). We had a simple dinner with my in laws at our home. Sam wore a sailor outfit & matching hat with his name on it. I chose sailor outfit because it matches his name SAMUDRA which means OCEAN in Indonesian.

Today, one day after his birthday, his eye doctor told us that Sam needs an eye surgery sometimes in May or June. His right eye kept tearing/watering. We did massage his nose but didn't work. Mostly the teary eye will stop on its own before the baby reach 12 months old. So Sam is 12 months old now and still tearing, so doctor must 'open' the teary docs blockage, if wait too long can cause infections. Doctor said it's a simple & common procedures.

I will keep you posted here soon as we hear from the eye doctor.

Here are some birthday pictures
