Tis a (Crazy Good) Season...



Our life is busy and crazy and it seems like the ‘plateau’ of craziness is always around the corner.  But, we never quite get there.  A big part of this has been what has turned into Kaleb’s constant ‘crud’.  It started over hunting weekend in November.  We learned that Monday that he had a para influenza virus (and the croup)  and we spent the week at home.  We skipped our Thanksgiving plans L  Instead of buying gas to visit family… we bought a nebulizer.  Thankfully, Kaleb takes his medicine like a champ and didn’t mind the nebulizer too much.  Since then, we’ve been on a constant up and  down of a nasty cold, cough and fevers.  This past week, his coupe cough was getting worse again.  So, back to the doctor again.  This time, the high powered steroid shot to get those airways opening up allowing him to finally get over this crud.  And, since there was still an ear infection- another round of good old amoxicillin.  Good news- he’s starting to really, truly act like himself again.  Good thing, because we’ve got lots of Christmas going on! 

This weekend, we took off on a road trip adventure to visit the Roths for Christmas’ #1 and #2 .  LOTS and LOTS of fun!!  First stop was to see Grandma and Grandpa Roth.  Kaleb absolutely loved playing with his new microwave, playing the cymbals and doing flips with Grandma’s walker.  It was so great seeing them.  Here are some pics of all the fun…

 And, a shhh, don't tell Grandpa Berry-  John Deere tractor.  
The best part, it even has the signature 'has a tough time rolling over' chug of a start. 
 Opening presents with Dad's help!
 Watching Charotte's Web with Grandma. 
 Hanging out with Mom :) 
And, look what Santa dropped off early for Wes!! : ) 

Then, we loaded up and headed to hang out with the RJNANS!  Cousins and Uncle Ryan and Auntie Jennifer- oh, how fun.  And, their house has two dogs.  What more could this kid ask for?  We had a great time hanging out, opening Christmas presents and watching a little football.  Kaleb basically spent the entire time chasing the dogs, chasing the big kids and playing on their cool electronic toys.  Check out the fun…. 


 All the cousins together!

 These days, joy comes in the form of a new fully functioning microwave! 
 The guys in their matching #18 jersey shirts. 
 Mac N Cheese...nothing beats it!
 His favorite task in life... cooking.  Its extra fun with Auntie Jennifer and Sarabeth!
