Love + Two

Where, oh where, did November go?? It's nearly Christmas and the kids have been a blast! Tyler really understands the magic of Santa and our "Elf on the Shelf" sent to us from the north pole, Elfred. Daddy thought of the cute name. In the past 3 weeks, I recovered from a bad case of strep throat, Avery had a bad cold and Daddy had his 3rd shoulder surgery. We are all recuperated, except Daddy. He can't lift anything heavier than and apple for 4 weeks. We hope this will be his last surgery, but the doctor thinks he will need a shoulder replacement around age 50....yikes. We are headed to New York to celebrate the holidays. It will be great to be near family.
