Merry Christmas! Maggie (missing another tooth, but adding chocolate to her lips!) and JM are really enjoying the holidays. JM helped decorate the tree in typical 2 yr old boy fashion - by throwing some ornaments and using others as hockey sticks. He loves spotting Santa anywhere and everywhere. Maggie is showing JM the ropes. They are opening a few early presents, have decorated a gingerbread house, and have gone to see Santa. Maggie and JM both love the very, very colorful light display Keith has put together outside the house. Clark Griswold does live here!
JM had some minor surgery - tubes in his ears - this past Monday. He definitely is hearing better and his pronunciation has already improved. He'll begin some speech therapy and meetings with an early intervention teacher on Monday. Our contacts at early intervention think he'll do well and make quick progress.
Meanwhile, both he and Maggie continue to make us laugh. Both love to sing and dance around. JM and I have discovered a fondness for James Brown while car-dancing on the way to day care. He is too cute.
We hope you all have great holidays! I'll try to post more often!
OK, Maggie, sing with me now: "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth..." What a great picture - that is true Christmas spirit, and I absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear JM is doing well with the new tubes in his ears and I hope he continues to progress well.
