Gator, where are you?

I found him! Smart kid... He really must have wanted those treats.. A stool, a chair until he could climb... I am not lying when I tell people he hurts himself.

Checking out the goodies that mom and dad will totally have to relocate.

Those are some good treats over there... He must have been feeling brave he is wearing his Spidey sandals with socks. He put those on all by himself. When I asked him what he was doing, he told be just getting a snack... Huh, I guess!

Ry's Christmas Program

Some of the gals in her class....

Up on the roof top!

Ry has been able to memorize her parts for all of her little programs.. The funny part is that Gator totally memorizes them too....

Then there was snow

Gator looks like a blue and orange marshmallow!

With all the gear on, you would think he would look warmer/less blue.
He couldn't even stand up on his own. He would fall over or slip and just lay there calling for help.

Wanna little HAM with that?

BA... No relation to AA...

I need to enroll my son in a Biters anonymous group... The child is like a puppy getting teeth. He chews on everything. Ahhhh... Is there no end to this? If you can't tell what each picture is, allow me to help you out: starting at the top left. Those would be the blinds on his window, just at his height... The next is a picture of the flip flops I got on a screaming deal at target for NEXT YEAR, destroyed. Then his shoe lace that he has so nicely shredded. It doesn't end with his things... The pass along card of Jesus was caught in his mouth with minimal damage although it seems like I said something to the tune of "please don't chew or bite on the Savior" Then comes MY Ipod earphones. I know that these are rather cheap, however, I like my stuff and don't really care to have it gnawed on by my two year old. The last two photos are two of many many books that have chewed corners... Books happen to be his favorite thing to chew on...
This too shall pass- I hope!

Updates updates.....

Gator had a Cardiology appointment Monday, it was nerve racking building up to that appointment. We started telling him about the Echo and the Dr. appointment weeks before he actually had it so that he would be ready and not fight us the whole time. He did really well. The Echo was first, we had a sucker, movies, cars and daddy to distract from the "magic wand with lotion". We really love to have Belle because she knows us. Then we got to visit with Dr. Su, it is always so nice to see him and he had so many + things to say. Not improvements but no declines and that is as good as improvements to me... He went up in weight and volume of meds and is moving right along... So the big question is..... When is the Fontan? Well, I got my way and we aren't even planning it yet...Yeah!!!! We have time to just love him and get him bigger. I am hoping that with this he can get a bigger Fontan and be able to keep his original anatomy longer. I am also hoping that he will be at a more understanding age. An age when we can explain why he is having tubes and things and won't try and pull them out. When there is more to distract him like learning to read and playing video games and things like that. The down side is that he will most likely remember that he had surgery and that he was stuck in the hospital, and he will probably miss some school.... I kinda think those are minor things. So we go back in six months to another appointment, that will be in May when he is already three.

On a side note Ry and I got to go see the Nutcracker.... It was AWESOME>>>>
