Henry and Harry

We have so much to be thankful for! What a great week we had! We started our crainess by spending time with Great-grandma Zeek for her 87th birthday. We also tried to spend as much time as possible with Brett while he was here from Boston. Abigail could hardly wait for T-Bone to come home from U of M, so she's been loving teasing him! Joel and Kelly were able to stay for a couple of days and Henry fell in love with their Schnoodle dog, Harry. We also got to meet a distant cousin, Lily, who was adopted by Colin's cousin, Becky. Isn't she gorgeous! In between all of that we went to church, had 2 Thanksgiving dinners and I shopped all day Friday! What a fun week!

Payback Time!

Abigail is in trouble...Hank figured out how to get her back after dealing with her pestering for 16 months!

Playing with Trains

Henry loves to play with his Brio and Thomas trains! He loves to have one in each hand most of the day unless he's pushing them around on the ground or the train table. It's so fun to watch him play!

Update on Henry

Finally after 3 weeks, we got an appointment for Henry at DeVos. It's much sooner than we expected, January 12 at 9:00 am. Tomorrow Henry will be 16 months. At the time of that appointment he will be almost 18 months.

Thanks for all of the prayers and verbal support. Hanks has made huge progress over the past three weeks, but still isn't walking or talking. In the past two days he has started to do the "monkey crawl" where his legs are straight and his hands are still on the ground. Maybe that's getting him closer to walking???

Please continue to pray for us, we definitely feel it. He's got just less than two months to walk...I have full faith that he will.
