Sleepy Head

Just wanted to update you all on Ezekiel's sleeping. He is doing great!!!! He only occasionally gets up during the night now. Normally he sleeps all the way through and just gets up earlier. Can't complain about that!!!! Thanks for all your prayers. (thought I would add a picture of him sleeping, for fun).

Cosi Children's Science Museum

During the winter, it is "fun" finding things to do for Ezekiel. Every week we go to story time at the library, but other than that, there's not much else to do. So I try and set up play dates with other kids his age. We were fortunate enough to get a membership to Cosi Children's Science Museum. And we try to set up a play date there about every other week. So here are some pictures of Zeke with his friends, Caiden and Landon at Cosi.

Bowling

On Saturday, Watershed had what we call a "mixer". A mixer is basically an outing/event where we invite our friends (non-Watersheders). It's just a fun time for us all the hang out, get to know each other, and "one-another" (which is basically a non-threatening way of networking). So for this mixer we went bowling. I totally stink but it was actually fun! And we had several visitors. So it was definitely a success. And it was Zeke's first time bowling, man was that fun!!!

Snow Days

A couple weeks ago we had lots of snow days, and since I teach part-time, I was able to stay at home with the kids. We had a lot of fun. Ezekiel and I played in the front yard while Amelia took her nap. And when she woke, we spent time helping her practise rolling over, with Zeke cheering her on. Now she rolls over all the time, even in her crib at night. Zeke and Amelia also got some great quality playing time. Oh, and here's a story...when Zeke and I were outside, I let him play on the car and slide down the front window (which for those of you who don't know Zeke, this is right up his alley, he is not afraid of anything). Well, one time I set him up there and readied the camera, and said go. I shot the pic just as he slide and he slide off the side instead of the front, landing on the side view mirror. But the funny part was that he got stuck there. He couldn't get down!!! After that, he wasn't too keen on the idea of sliding down the car and the next day, a large bruise miraculously appeared on his leg. We still had fun in the snow though.

Roll with me!

That's what Amelia is saying today...because on her 4 month birthday, she rolled over. We were so excited and have been trying to get her to do it again, but I guess she'll do it when she wants to. But praise the Lord, Amelia is developing totally normal!!!!

Shunt Update

Yesterday Amelia had an appointment with her doctor. They did another CT Scan to see if the shunt is working properly. Well, great news, it is!!!! He even said the shunt was shrinking her Dandy Walker Cyst!!! So that is a huge praise!!!! Thank you God.
