Hello All, We had a great time visitng Nana Sue and Grandpa Kris in Tucson for an early Thanksgiving trip. We all swam daily and soaked up the sun. It was a great to have a break from our crazy lives. Our trip home was quite humorous - flight canceled, spent 4+hrs in the airport, babies refused Erick, they got to bed 3 hrs late, and our luggage was lost. But honestly, it was all worth it. Meera & Emma are absolutely amazing. They continue to change daily and are such crack-ups! Emma loves to shrug her shoulders and put her hands up as if she is saying "where is it?" (it being anything from the cat to the sippy cup she just threw on the ground). Meera has mastered the "So Big!" arms in the air move. Emma is walking all around, and now Meera does the same as long as we hold her hands. She just started PT for her "benign central hypotonia" and now we will start giving her daily massages and trying to get her in the swim pool more often. She has made huge improvements and continues to develop at her own pace. Erick is busy with his Path residency. The daily commute has been a bit brutal with the sub-freezing temps. He traveled to Chile in October to present a paper at the International Society of Dermatopathogy Conference. Fortunately for me, John (Erick's dad) came to help me with the babies. My new position at Women's Healthcare Associates has been rewarding, fun, and challenging. I have really enjoyed working there thus far, though it is hard to be away from the girls. We are headed to Mpls this weekend for an early Christmas w/ our fam. I think my parents started counting down the days about a month ago. I am sure we will have plenty of photos from that trip as well.
Love to you all,
team MEENS
