Trio Update

So much has happened lately in the life of Trio I just haven't had time to really update.

First off we finally put up our Christmas tree last week and it was soooo cute because he tried to help! Of course it was hard for him to figure out how to put the ornaments on but he did alright and our little tree is full of love and lights. He even (pretty much) got to put the angel on top of the tree.

Then last Friday we went to see Santa. Needless to say we WERE NOT happy to see the big jolly guy in red this year. In the picture he is crying and looking towards the camera like "Why are you doing this to me?" Quite frankly I wasn't happy with Santa myself this year; we went to Highland and with the exception of a very few stores (and I do mean very few) Highland pretty much sucks now and the Santa is no exception. Putting my foot down next year and we're going to Lakelaine again at least that Santa tries to work with you. But these are pictures that have to get taken so we got a copy.

I am really excited for Christmas this year. We're spending all day with my family this year and Trio will really be able to enjoy his presents this year although I still swear he enjoyed them last year. He understood that those presents were his by gum and he got mad if you tried to take them away!! Plus he'll get cooler toys this year and will just be able to run around having a good time with all the other kids in my family.

For January brings certain things that need to get done. It's time for a trip to the cardiologist again and if his valve is still narrow we're going to have to do the balloon cath to widen it which sounds scary even though I'm assured that it's a simply outpatient procedure. I just don't fancy anymore time in that hospital again unless it is absolutely necessary. And I'm worried about how he'll react to being there because I'm pretty sure he has some memories, vague as they might be, of being there for so long.

But that is about a month away so we won't dwell on it. Who knows we could hear fantastic news from Dr. Holt in January. For right now I'm focused on Christmas on Friday, waking up to pancakes coffee and presents with my two best boys, and having fun with family and friends that day and night!!!
