Updates in March/April

Time sure flies... We have been really bad in keeping this updated for everyone. We get caught up in daily life, we forget to take pictures of Nolan, forget to keep this blog updated...

Nolan is fast approaching 20 months! Things have been good for the most part. It has been a hard winter, he has been sick quite a bit. Lots of ear infections and pink eye... We are meeting with and ENT this week to see about putting tubes in his ears. Both Laura and I are struggling with putting Nolan through surgery, but what everyone has told both of us is that it is like a light switch...no more ear infections, better attention and balance. So, the benefits of this are probably worth it. Still...hard, right?

I've been traveling for work - training. I've spent two of the last three weeks in Cleveland, OH learning about a software package we use at Carleton. It has been hard to be away, both for me and for Laura - not to mention Murphy and Nolan! Laura has a trip coming up next week, so it will be my turn to have a week of Nolan on my own. We have been fortunate that family lives so close and were able to help Laura out while I was gone. I will be having a family cookout to thank everyone, provided it doesn't snow tomorrow!!!

It might be another April Fool's with inches of snow on the ground. I just think that is the worst...we are so close to spring, and BAM! Well, that's Minnesota! Enjoy the pictures. We will be getting more up soon!
