Dr. Report and Christmas Boy

First of all, I'll give you the report we got from the neurosurgeon on Tuesday. The CT scan showed that the shunt was in the right place and that it was working (meaning the fluid build-up) was less. That is good news. He is a little concerned about his eyes (movement, bobbing, no tracking, etc.) but said we'll just have to wait and see (like everything else). He looked at his foot and was a little puzzled by it so we're going back in 3 months for an MRI to check and see if they can't figure out why his foot is still bent and there are no reflexes. SOOOO that is that. No big news, but we're not in surgery, so we're glad about that! We are thankful.

The other night I put Kanyon on the bed by Kory while I went in the other room to do something and this is what I found....joining dad in his bible reading!

Kanyon is starting to get in the Christmas spirit! Here's our little Santa Elf
"FA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!!!!"
The Rudolph blanket was tricky for some reason. I think because our elf was hungry!

I love that last pic....he looks like he is playing peek-a-boo! I will pray for his eyes to start tracking better and that his foot will be corrected on its own. I love seeing pictures of him and hearing how he is doing. Since you see him all the time, every day, you might not be able to see some of the changes and how much personality he looks like he is developing. It doesn't seem long ago that he smiled for the first time and now he smiles in most of the pictures ... so sweet. I hope ya'll have a good christmas. Love you guys,
-Terri

Kanyon is turning into such a cute little guy. We will continue to pray from him and especially his eyes and foot. Jessica misses you so much!! She talks about you all the time, and asks to look at this website almost everyday. Have a very Merry Christmas.

I just loved the surprise of getting to hear your sweet voice the other day! Loved it. Glad for the good report on the Kan Man... I know the "wait and see" stuff has got to be so hard, but the "so far, so good" is great!! Hang in there Mommy! You are doing an AMAZING job with that little guy! We just love him to pieces! Love you too!
