It's been awhile...

So I won't write it all at once. Here's the skinny.....

1) Thanksgiving left me speechless. I have so much to be thankful for, most importantly a healthy family. I am so thankful Isaac is here - #1 on our list this year. I'm thankful we have two adorable, loving children. I'm thankful I have an awesome, supportive husband who doesn't think I have to do all the cooking, cleaning and laundry. Go Team Linville! I'm thankful for my parents. My parents taught me to be a good, loving person and to remember what we have and not what we don't have. To look forward and not back. They also taught me not to go through life thinking of just myself. For that, I am so grateful. I'm thankful for my brother - he's been a huge source of support for us. He's a catch (all ya single ladies). I'm thankful that in these tough times, both Lyndon and I are employed and secure. I'm so thankful for my friends....day in and day out, they have been there. Living in Maine, Florida, Washington, wherever, I can count on them. And last (but not least), I'm thankful for new friends who love us, support us and who we love and support. Life is good!

2) I turned 29! Again!

3) We have been having multiple appointments for Isaac. He was seen at Children's at the Cranio Facial Clinic which specializes in reanimation. As there is still no movement, we felt we needed to explore some options. They are going to be running a few tests on Monday that will pretty much tell us what's going on in Isaac's head as far as his nerves are concerned. He's having a BEARS hearing test, an EMG and another CT Scan. If we learn his nerve is permanently damaged, there are some options so we will be looking at these closely in the weeks/months to come. I will "try" to keep up on the blog.

4) I am on the road to being an employed Zumba instructor. I "auditioned" last week and it went well! This evening I shadowed another instructor on the stage and next week will actually teach a few songs during her class. I'm so excited - it's an exercise I completely love...so fun!

5) MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOURS!!!!
