Catch up AGAIN


















We have had a time of it!!! The kids and I have been battling the crud for awhile...Jake and Caden got bronchitis and then I got strep....Tate got a sinus infection that lead to her asthma acting up and Caden's new ear tube (got an ear infection in it)....Tate got worse (steroids..better now)....Me better...Jake better....Caden worse (steroids)...back AGAIN today and his asthma is acting up so more meds...found out at his post=op appt. he is tongue-tied (so was I) he will go under and have that clipped next Friday!! Checked both kids and Jake is fine but Tate I am pretty sure is tied! Her speech is also a confirmation I think...so she will go with me next week to the pre-op appt. for Caden for them to check and then if needed clip her in office. I will not tell her ahead of time (as my parent didn't inform me). The doctor will tell her to lift her tongue up and WHAM snip it with scissors if need be! CRAZY STUFF!!!! I am praying this really helps Caden. He does not eat ANY table food. Only gerber baby food. He gags on everything. They said his tongue is severe and he is tied almost to the tip of the tongue so that may help. But since he has formed and aversion to food he will have to be trained. ECI will be out to evealuate him at the end of January as he may need Speech Therapy for them to teach him how to control his tongue!

Other than that we are GREAT!! We are anxiously awaiting celebrating the birth of Jesus and little Trevor!!!!! Not one in the same but we are equally excited about both! (As I know Kimmy is..she looks GREAT!)

So..here is a mish mosh of pictures..Pictures will include Caden at 11 months (WOW!) Tate and Jake at our church Christmas program (yes my son is the heathen in shorts and crocs....he was not going to do the program and when we got there walked to his class and told us he was...he did great. It was so sweet he walked all the way from the bottom through all the kids to stand by his Taylee and she reassured him and kissed him on the head SO SWEET!!!! She then pushed him to his teacher because she was afraid he was going to ruin the show!)..other pictures our of kids in bath and Tate during a sleepless night drinking hot tea at 1AM during breathing treatments...then some from her Christmas Party at school today! I am Home Room Mom and I am BEYOND glad it is OVER!!!
Merry Christmas sweet friends!
