I thought I would be better at keeping up with this blog! So much has happened since I last "blogged".

Owen's tonsils were removed on October 17th...he did awesome! We were "mean" parents and were strict on him taking his medicines. There were times it took 30-40 minutes for him to get it down! But, it kept him comfortable enough that he drank fluids and ate pretty good the whole time. After about 8 days he was back to himself. He had to stay "quiet" for 14 days, no jumping, etc. This was very hard after day 8...in fact, he asked if I could call the doctor to ask if Owen could "tackle something". It's amazing...he no longer snores and his voice has gotten a little lower and speech is even clearer.

Grace is doing good in school. She is currently enrolled in a tumbling class and an art class. She LOVES this new techniques she is learning in art class. We had her conference at school and Mrs. Brose says she is very quiet. She mentioned that she will volunteer for things in class but is not "chatty". She even wanted to be sure that Grace likes school!! We assured her that Grace loves it but is typically quiet in these settings.

Luke....well, Luke is quite a busy little guy. He's working hard on learning new words and has improved quite a bit since we start therapy in June. In fact, we started private therapy a few weeks ago. His newest "phrase" is..."I don't know". He tries to do everything that Grace and Owen do. He is amazing at the playground climbing and sliding everywhere. Because of his height & gross motor skills, most people think he is 3. They are amazed when I tell them he just turned 2.

Jason and I are keeping busy. Jason is currently up in the attic adding insulation. Quite a messy and time consuming job. I continue to be busy with MOPS and preschool board activities. Until next time...
