The weather here has been a wide array of everything. We have been under some kind of advisory almost every day. Today it is dense fog...wierd.
I have had two dentist appointments since Allison arrived. A couple of weeks prior to her birth I lost part of a tooth on a piece of halloween candy...never eat your kid's halloween candy...it's bad luck. Anyway, I had to wait until she was born to take care of the issue. Fortunately, the dentist was able to remove a really old filling from the tooth and refill it. That was an answer to prayer. I wasn't looking forward to a root canal!
The boys school program was last week. They had lead roles as brothers in the skit family. I knew what the program was about because we started working on it before I had Allison, but I had never actually seen them practice the drama. It was lots of fun to attend a program I didn't have to stress over! The boys learned their parts without any coaching from me, and did a great job.
Our church Christmas dinner was Saturday night, and a great crowd braved the nasty weather to fellowship together. I didn't get any pictures this time...I mostly sat around in an effort to aid the incision healing process.
I suppose this week will bring the wrap-up on Christmas shopping and gift wrapping. Our family Christmas here in Lima is scheduled for the weekend before Christmas, we'll be heading to Cincinnati for Christmas Eve and Day, back home for Wed. and Thurs., then to Michigan for Fri.-Sun. We'll have the 1st and 2nd to recover, then it's back to school on the 3rd. These are the plans IF my doctor gives me the OK next week. I have reason to worry about that!
Well, Kaitlynn has managed to wreck my room while I've downloaded these pictures, so I need to get busy. Hope everyone is having a great week!

Kaitlynn holding the baby is so sweet.
So nice to see the updated pics! You're looking great too, by the way.
I thoroughly enjoy looking at the updates in your blog! Your baby is beautiful!
Hope you get feeling like your old self again SOON! I never had to forego travels around Christmas due to recovery from having a baby except one year. Janae was born Dec 19 and my inlaws literally brought Christmas to us!! We only had to provide the house and the tree. They brought dinner, snacks, presents, etc. It was GREAT! And they didn't even expect my house to be spotless! That was almost the best part :)
Enjoyed the update and pics. Hope to see you all in a couple of weeks (maybe??).
Stephanie (& gang)! Allison is so beautiful! I have finally found your blogsite--and the links to Eric and Valerie's, too. We are on here as well--hangingwiththegang.blogspot.com--what a great way to keep up with all the family and how fast the little ones grow up. And, by the way, you look GREAT!! We're looking forward to seeing you at Christmas. Love, Mandy (& gang)
Such cute pictures. Allison looks so alert and bright-eyed!
