Work/ life update

-Work is good. I am top in sales on my "team" (there are 17 of us).
-My manager is cool, in another 2 months I will get to change my schedule and the latest I will have to work is 6pm, which is great!
-Eric's life has become less hectic thanks to no longer having to attend chamber board meetings or city council.
- Our house is for sale and we hope it sells soon b/c we found another one that we really like.
- Aaron, my brother, left for SA, Texas On Tues for Air National Guard- there for 8 weeks then waits 2 weeks there after training and then goes to north TX for another 6 weeks.
- We are attending church at Church on the Rock, it is two minutes from our house and the preaching and people have been great! I can also actually put Corban in nursery and not have to worry about 900 kids being in there.
- Christmas was great I need to post pics I have just been so busy and tired- read the Corban update to learn why.

Corban Update

- The past couple of months have been difficult. Corban, for some reason, LOVES ear infections, the oral anti-biotics did NOT work, he had to get shots, Sun, Mon, Tues. He was more than difficult to get to sleep then he would wake up and literally scream for 1-2 hours, like throwing his head back, arching his back screaming....... this can only be tolerated by parents for so long!
-The next Wed. we were at the ENT. Our wonderful peditrician didn't make us wait for 6 infections b/c he has had so many rounds of antibiotics (see what happend at five months with his first surgery) and the fact that they were not working. The audiologist tested Corban and confirmed our fears, Corban was not hearing fully. After using a implant on his head, that bypasses the fluid in his ears, it was determined that once the fluid was removed his hearing would return fully. PTL!
- Tubes were scheduled for Monday (this past Mon) at Childrens downtown- surgery went great! Granted he had a more than nasty infection so we are now on ear drops but no more 104 temps.
- Since Corban's tubes he is crawling faster, eating more (for the last month he put on NO weight) and standing. He is also learning more words, b/c he can hear them.
- Last week was Corban's last week at daycare. This week he started being kept by a friend from church who used to be a nanny, taught at montisory school and worked at the CDC. Not only will Corban get better care and learn more but it will save us well over $100 a month! It also helps that she was not "closed" today when we had to go to work and all the other places were.
