Christmas Prep 2010




Christmas this year seemed to come fast. So fast my blogging is way behind. Keeping up with Brady I think is the biggest difference this year. He is truly a 17 month old little boy and into everything.

The Christmas card this year was a good display of our family. Really no great picture. But a combo of pictures that showed how a typical photo shoot goes in our family right now. We even tried a few different times to get a great picture but as you can see it never really worked.

Pre Christmas this year was also filled with some sickness. Kyle won this competition with three months of a lung issues that we could not get under control. Our doctor almost admitted him to the hospital for IV steroids days before Christmas because she had given him everything else and he was still sick. After more blood work and a CT scan we found out Kyle had sever back sinus infections that the 3 previous rounds of antibiotics had not killed. Bottom line, after test results were sent to Mayo Clinic, Kyle seems to have limited to no anti bodies to a number of bacteria. Therefore his body is very susceptible to sickness if he is exposed to one of these bacterias. Well pre Christmas we were able to get him over the infection and therefore his lungs got a lot better and we have been sent to a doctor who specializes in immune deficiencies. Here is hoping in 2011 we figure out how to keep Kyle well.
(Kyle doing one of many breathing treatments...at least it was good reading time as well.)

Even with the business of pre Christmas we all did seem to manage to get into the Christmas spirit. Brady loved the Christmas hats and headbands and the big boys never let us forget our family advent wreath lighting every Sunday.
