Happy Thanksgiving, a little late!

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody. I thought it was finally my turn to write a little on the blog and give some updates. School is going well for both of us, but we are definitely ready for our Christmas break. With all of our doctor appointments plus the added school work it will be nice to sit back and watch movies for a few weeks instead of sitting in front of the computer. We don't have any pictures of Thanksgiving Day, we were a little lazy with the camera, but we had a nice day. We had originally planned on going to Owatonna for the day but my dad took a much needed vacation to California to see my grandparents. So instead we stayed in the cities and brought some food to Scott and Kara's and celebrated with Taryn's side of the family. Our new niece Kali slept through it all!

Taryn's folks stayed with us since Kali was baptised that following Sunday and we took advantage of the babysitting. We took Adina to the Como Zoo and put up the tree. Oliver could definitely see the Christmas lights, we might have to keep our tree up all year! We were sponsors for the baptism and I got to preach for the first time--it went well and I had a lot of fun.

Not many new updates as far as doctor visits go. Oliver had his six month appointment (one month late)--shots!!! He is gaining weight and getting taller but his head has not grown at all in three months. We were not shocked as the neurologist told us this would be the case, but we had a little hope of some growth. We are going to see a new GI doctor in a few weeks and are still waiting for all of the genetic tests to come back. It is all a waiting game. We will continue to post updates. Here are some pictures of the zoo and Oliver looking at the tree. Also, Taryn blowing out candles on her birthday Cheese Cake that I spent hours preparing from the box!
