It's Been a Long Time!

I decided today is the day to FINALLY update our blog. A lot has happened since I posted last November. Hmmm... let's see. December... Phil and I decided to take a quick trip to IN and MI to see family for Christmas. It was a special time. We didn't tell the kids where we were going. After sitting in the van for nearly 13 hours little ones begin to question. Carole had no clue what was going on but Andrew wondered where we were going. We just said we were going on a trip. When we pulled into Grandpa and Grandma's driveway he was thoroughly surprised!

January... The kids were sick for most of the month with walking pneumonia, RSV, and various other viruses. We even had to cancel Andrew's outpatient surgery because he was so sick.

February... Andrew had his surgery finally done on the 12th. The urologist found that Andrew has a bladder disease called Interstitial Cystitis and will have to be on a medication for that. He is doing so much better now and is able to stay dry and he has more control over his bladder. On the 14th Andrew turned 4 years old. Where did my little 4lb baby go? :-( He is growing up so fast.

Andrew had his best friend, Chris, over for his birthday. They got to build a snowman with Daddy.
