Christmas

I am taking a couple days off to do "normal" things which is nice for a change of pace. Today I did some laundry, finally saw the eye doctor and ordered some new glasses and contacts (a little overdue, especially if you saw the condition of my current glasses), tomorrow will consist of more laundry and a hair appointment.

Ryan has received some preliminary results from his tests which indicate a parasite. Although this is very treatable with a medication with some side effects, the doctor is also still not ruling out Crohn's and we are awaiting the results from his day exploratory surgery still before he starts treatment for the parasite, to see if there is anything else which should take precedence for treatment. Unfortunately the specialist is away on holidays so we probably won't hear anything for at least another week.

We had a wonderful Christmas with family this year and Kaitlyn was spoiled. She has a new doll which she loves to feed bottles to and takes with her everywhere she goes. She even has a Dora hockey stick and puck (you know you're Canadian when...). Here are a few pictures from our holidays. I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas and has a wonderful 2008!

You know you're a big Johnny Cash fan when people start buying you Johnny action figures??


It's amazing how quickly she figures things out:

Kaitlyn helping decorate the tree:



She loves bathtime. Here's a pic pre-tubes. She now hates the beginning of her bath when she has to get her hair washed. She won't keep her plugs in her ears so one of us has to cover her ears while the other dumps water over her head to rinse.



And here's one of Kaitlyn in her "new" (used but still good) Gymboree outfit. She's our little ballerina.
