Christmas 2008











Christmas was all kinds of fun this year. Kendall really believed in Santa and understood the concept. Gavin wasn't quite there but still loved all the presents he received. Both kids can't decide what new toy to play with these days. Although the holidays are fun, we are glad they are over. All of us but Ryan caught colds after Christmas. Kendall ended up getting pnemonia so we are having to hang low for New Years. We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and wish you a Happy New Year.

Grow Baby Grow


So today was Gavin's day. We had two doctors appointments and two thearpy sessions. What a busy day it was. First, I took Gavin to his Endocrine appointment which measures his growth. Turns out he has grown 3.8 inches in four months and gained two pounds. This is huge for Gavin and we are so thrilled the hormones are working. They have actually bumped up his dosage so by next time hopefully he will gain some more. Then we went to the eye doctor. Gavin is still not wearing his glasses and the doctor wants us to keep trying. Yah right, he doesn't have to try to get the kid to wear them! He gave us some drops which will blur his vision and allow the glasses to help him see. Hopefully this will work and he will learn to wear his glasses the hard way. I feel bad doing this but if it is the only way to get them on the kid it is worth a shot. If this eventually doesn't work in fixing his crossed eyes he will have to have surgery. We are thinking of going to see another eye doctor to see what they say. I just don't want to put Gavin through another surgery if I don't have to. Well, that is all I have so far. Gavin is taking a nap right now and then we are off to thearpy. Luckily I can sit and read my book for a couple hours while Gavin is hard at work.

Christmas Time Is Here












So this past weekend we put the finishing touches on our holiday decorating. We went out and picked up our tree. Kendall had a blast putting the ornaments on the tree. Gavin just tried to hit all the ornaments off the tree. I can't believe christmas in a couple weeks. I better get a move on the wrapping. Well, hope you all are having as much fun this holiday season as we are.
