Hayden's Report

We heard from the Allergy Deptartment at Hayden's ENT Clinic and he does not have any environmental allergies. Thank goodness for Claritin and Zyrtec. Until we meet with the doctor on December 2 we will continue to take these medicines to control his allergies. I hope that it is just seasonal allergies and we don't have to continue taking medicine all year long. Thanks so much for the prayers throughout his ordeal. It had been interesting!!

Thanksgiving

I AM SO THANKFUL that it is Thanksgiving!!! Thankfully, I don't have to go to work for nine (yes that's 9) days. I will be so glad that I am able to spend these days with these two precious children that God has blessed me with. I feel like that when I am working I have to be devoted to lesson plans, grading, contacting parents, administrative tasks, and on an on and on. I want to have fun this week and enjoy each moment. I sure hope that it goes by S L O W!!! I wish each one of you a Happy Thanksgiving and a restful week.

Today, on November 22, 2008 the OLE MISS REBELS beat, yes beat the LSU Tigers!! Go Rebels. Have a safe flight home tomorrow! My mom and dad had the privilege of visiting Baton Rouge this weekend with Mr. Dennis and Mrs. Marilyn- Dad and Mr. Dennis went to the game at Death Valley :)!! They seemed to have had a blast with the other 92, 998 people!! I talked to him right before half time and it was loud!!

I appreciate our photographer, Renee Reedy, for taking the picture of these two handsome boys. She took this last year on the day after Thanksgiving at the Riverwalk. Poor boys it was freezing cold. Thanks, Ms. Renee for capturing their beautiful smiles!

I Will Be An Aunt

Yes, I am learning how to do this!! We found out a couple of weeks ago that my sister, Sarah, will be having a baby sometime in June- can't wait to spoil something that I can send home.

Go Austin

Ausin and the 9-10 year old New Hope Trojans will play in the play-offs tomorrow. If they win, which I'm sure they will, they will play in the SUPER BOWL nest week. GO TROJANS!!!

Hayden's Surgery

Hayden's surgery went well today. Dr. Boggess removed the ear tubes that were in his ear canal and replaced them with permanent tubes (these will last 3 years at the most then he will remove them). He did not find nodules on his vocal chords but rather swollen "places" that he wants to watch carefully over time. He requested that Hayden take speech therapy to teach him how to speak slower and not to strain his vocal chords which could cause the vocal chords to become more swollen. He also drew blood to do allergy testing- we will know from that in about a week. Thanks to all who have prayed for him today.
