Happy Holidays

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. Christmas is actually a multi-day event for us. We had a party at the beginning of the month with one side of Eric's extended family. We spent the 23rd with Eric's immediate family, 24th with my immediate family, and the 25th with Eric's other side of the family. And if that wasn't enough stuff for the boys, Santa stopped by. As you can tell by the picture, it looks like Toys 'R' Us exploded in our living room. The boys didn't know what to play with first.Landon was right in the middle of it all. He has actually been wearing his CI's as full BTE's. He had a bad diaper while we were out the other day and I didn't have a spare bodysuit with me - he was wearing the battery part in pockets on his undershirts instead of with the babyworn clips. The only way I could keep his ears on that day was to make them the regular BTE's. We thought it would be a few years before he could wear them like this but they are actually staying on better like this than when we separate it and use the babyworn setup.
Landon is getting tooth #5. His top 2 teeth just broke through last week but he was still gnawing on everything so I looked in there tonight and one of his back molars on the right has broken through. He is cruising along all the furniture and thinks he's big stuff when he lets go with both hands- even if it is only for a second. The boys have started a countdown for Disney World. They can't wait until we go. We are definitely ready for a vacation.

What a big boy! He looks so cute in those BTEs! :) I'm glad they're staying on him so well...I was afraid you'd have a hard time with them!
I can relate to the Toys'R'Us explosion...that's what our house looked like, too...and still does, in spots...ugh! :)

Merry Christmas to you too! We started wearing the BTE's much sooner than we thought it would be possible and have been very happy with the results. Glad everyone had a nice holiday!
