The time has come for the first round of Botox to be wearing off. We go back again early January. They are also going to do Phenol blocks.

The Phenol requires Christina to be under, so we will not be able to hold her hand during the procedure.

We are also looking into the Botox for her arms.

It is all a lot to think about.

Cole came over tonight. Dave and Crystal had a concert to go to. Christina, Cole and I had a good time. It is interesting to watch Christina when another child is around.

We sang, played with toys, and had a snack. Christina and I taught Cole some signs. He catches on quickly.

Christina is sick today. She hasn't been feeling well for a few days.

One of the bottom molars poked through with an attitude. Christina had a flap of gum flopping over her tooth. The other molar on the bottom is so close. It has been swollen for awhile. The two on top are still taking there time.

I think the teething has put her in the path to getting a cold. She has a cough. It sounds very rough. It has progressively been getting worse. She has been clingy and whiny. I would imagine she has a headache too.

While Angela was out of the house getting her school work done, Christina and I wrapped a couple presents. She enjoyed playing with the paper.

It's Black Friday. Angela went shopping this morning and I am out for coffee this afternoon.

I am going through pictures to double check my organization. And, trying to make another slideshow for ALL the photos.

As I am going through the pictures of Christina it brings a tear to my eye. Really more like crying. She was so small. Looking back, I was a basket case. We all have come a long way. I am very lucky Christina is with us.

I included a photo to share. This was July 5, 2006. Christina is in her incubator at Children's Minneapolis.

Just a note to say...

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I have a lot to be thankful for. You have come along way Christina. You too Angela. You also have come a long way.

Thanks you two for being you.
