A Quick Update

I haven't had a whole lot of time these last few months. Between Garrison and I we've been to the ER 6 times in three months. We're both finally feeling better. Garrison is now up to 33 inches and 25 lbs, so he's gained back the weight he lost while he had RSV. He lost down to 20lbs so he's been slowly working it back up. He goes in for surgery on Monday on his ears. They will be removing scar tissue from the ear drums, and putting tubes in. They are hoping to restore his hearing completely. At his last test he was at 90% hearing loss, but they hope it is a temporary loss due to the pressure built up behind the ear drums and the amount of scar tissue he has built up from ruptured drums. They said Monday should be pretty routine and he'll be feeling back to normal and hopefully better than normal by that evening. Garrison started walking a few weeks ago, but then when his ears got bad he quit again. We are hoping he'll decide to walk again once his equalibrium and balance come back. I'm hoping to have time to post a little of what we've all been up to soon. Justen is getting pretty close to having the roof up on our new barn, Garrison has rearanged and "organized" all of my kitchen cupboards, and I've beem working with students on FFA proficiencies, state degrees, and science fair projects. It's a busy time for us. Justen and I call spring "FFA Season". We have all of our competitions coming up, and we are both training several teams. Our greenhouses are also in full swing and filling up for spring. Keep reminding me to get pictures up so I don't forget! So much exciting stuff, not to mention we start Lambing in two weeks. If I don't post for a while just know we are busy!
