Back to the snow

We played outside for the first time today since we've been back from Florida. It's 21 degrees out. Grant learned how to open doors at grandma and grandpa's house and he's been trying to get outside ever since. So, today I finally gave in and we put our snowsuits on and went out. He was very happy running around in his boots although I think he prefers the sand over the snow, even if snow does taste better.

We went back to the doctor's yesterday to get Grant's ever lingering yeast infection (on his face) checked out. The doctor is keeping him on the same medications to treat it, but said it may not go away until it gets warmer out. Yuck. Summer can't come soon enough.

We have discovered a few new indoor activities that are keeping Grant busy. He loves to stack up paper plates and bowls. He enjoys unzipping the zippers on all the jackets in the hall closet. Oh, and his favorite is throwing hangers over the babygate and watching them crash down a flight of stairs! Never a dull moment.

I'm 15 weeks along now in this pregnancy and woke up yesterday not sick for the first time in months. Yipee!

Shannon, I am glad you are no longer sick!!! That is a victory in and of itself. I know how hard that can be. Praying for you all- Crystal and The Bunch

Wow, not being sick anymore is such a wonderful transition into the joy of carrying a new life.
The next stage is so wonderful, and you can make a resolution to nap when Grant naps...even if it's close to supper time....Jim can always bring home takeout! We often had breakfast for supper because it was an easy and nutritional meal....and yes, sometimes it was NOT eggs, pancakes or sausage...it was a bowl of cereal with some fruit on top!
Whatever works, make it EASY for each of you to enjoy this new venture.
Love and Blessings,
S & R

Does Grant like yogurt? It helps put the good bacteria into the system. He really has made miraculous progress. Blessings to all of you
