Merry Christmas everyone! We have had a crazy household over the past month or so! Michael is now officially a walker, well has been for about 3 or 4 weeks now:) He is in to EVERYTHING!!! We have moved the living room furniture to "pin" him in, so to speak:) He is so much fun right now and has so much personality! He also has a temper just like his Mama (oops)! This past month, Michael has had 4 or 5 ear infections, so the ENT told us it is time for tubes- I am really hopeful that this will put an end to Bear's ear infections! Since we have met our deductible (as you all know, from the 4 night stay at Childrens thanks to RSV) we wanted to have his surgery before the end of the year...we got the last appointment available...Dec. 31st! Happy New Year to us:) Hopefully Michael's New Year's Resolution will be no more hospital visits, for a few years:)

We had a very nice Christmas Eve at my parents house with my brother and sister and their spouses and children- We got home a little late for Michael so it took him a while to settle down to go to sleep- then he was up at 6:30, bright and early to see what Santa brought him! We are so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends! Now, Michael is napping peacefully, thank goodness, he was a little overwhelmed by the gifts, I should say, boxes and wrapping paper:)
We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have a great New Year!!!
Kate and Geoff
