So glad we made it to Friday...

We have had such a busy week. I feel exhausted now that it's almost over.

On Monday we went to the Festival of Lights. It was Maylee's first time and she loved them!(Festival of lights is where they have a lot of lights and you just drive your car through and look at them.)The awesome car in front of us even paid for us!


Koby was really excited too! After the lights we went shopping and got a few gifts for the angel tree. Every year we all pick out a new ornament for the tree so we did that too.

On Tuesday Koby had his Christmas orchestra concert. Morgan's friend Lilly got to sit with us so that helped keep Morgan entertained. Maylee was so good, I think she liked the music.


Koby did a great job-I can see how much he has improved since last year.

On Wednesday Morgan was in the 1st grade play. She was a narrator and had her part memorized the day she brought it home. The play was so cute!



On Thursday Maylee woke up and began throwing up. I spent all morning holding her because whenever I put her down she would wake up, start crying and then throw up. At noon I called the doctor and they got us in 15 min later. She was diagnosed with another ear infection-this was her 5th in 5 months. We were referred to an Ear, nose and throat specialist. Amazingly, they were able to get us in later that afternoon. So we ran over to that dr's office after picking up her latest rx. They decided that she needs to have tubes put in her ears so, again amazingly enough, we were able to schedule her for the surgery on Tuesday. This was the highlight of the whole visit.
Maylee was so good-even though she felt miserable and we had to wait for quite a while-she just looked at books and played quietly.
Thankfully the antibiotic has already kicked in and she is doing better. I am kind of nervous about the surgery just because she is MY baby and she is so little. But I do know that it will help her in the long run and it will be nice to have a healthy baby.

Tonight Koby has to go to another concert for school, we need to get some more shopping done. On Saturday we have several Christmas parties to go too and Koby has a wrestling tournament. So more days packed full of stuff. I am starting to think that being snowed in at home for a couple of days sounds pretty heavenly!
