Anderson

Last night, we were playing after dinner. All of a sudden, Anderson was just standing in the middle of floor. Kaitlyn yells, "Mommy and Daddy...look, look!!" We turn around to see Anderson just standing there. Then, he bends down, picks up a block and stands back up!! HOLY COW!!!! It is the 1st time ever! We were all cheering and yelling! Anderson was smiling ear to ear!

Kaitlyn said to us, "Mommy, I just KNEW you would not want to miss that!"

Then, tonight, Anderson was playing at the coffee table, he turned around, and took a step. Charlie and I both saw him, it was like it was in "slow motion". It was so surreal! Again, lots of cheers for Anderson!!

Anderson's metabolic appt went okay today. Basically, he does not have a metabolic problem. Seems like the answers to Anderson right now may lie with his Chiari. We are excited and anxious to see Dr. Frim in Chicago! Officially, less than 1 month away!

Bedtime

You just never know what the kids will say.....tonight at bedtime:

Kaitlyn - "I try to be the nicest and smartest girl in the whole world, even if my friends are not nice to me." (God love her!)

Ryan - As we look at the 1001 Pirate things to spy book....Ryan says "10 Mummies....just like you Mommy ;)"

LONG TIME!

Okay....here I go again....not writing things down. 100 things have happened since I last wrote and of course I can't remember them all. Char and I will try to think of them tonight. Kids say the craziest, funniest things!! They CRACK US UP!!! Will try to catch you up on the last few months.

It has been a great, busy, hard, emotional few months. Christmas was great, the kids LOVED every second of it. We certainly had our fun. Santa left his "toy" bag in our fireplace, so we mailed it back to the North Pole ;) Hope he does not leave it with us next year. Mima Lois and Popo Larry came out to celebrate with us, what fun!

New year's was fun. We went bowling with our friends Bridgit, Neil and their 4 children, and Bridgit's 3 siblings and Mom. Then, we went to Bridgit's house for pizza and dessert and a game of charades. Fun was had by all.....

It is a NEW YEAR and we are feeling great about this year. Good things will come this year, we just know it!
