The weather in DC has been wonderful!! There is just a small hint of chill in the air. Soon we will see the breathtaking fall colors THEN a week later we will be spending our time cleaning up all the leaves.

Last week we went to Addie's craniofacial appt. It is always such a long day. The good news is that her hearing is still normal and her ear tubes are both in. The Plastic Surgeon wants her to come back in 6 months to reavaluate her lip and palate. Overall he thought everything was healing very nicely but we all have some concerns about her ability to produce certain sounds. We will continue to work with ST and see what happens. It wasn't her surgeon we saw but his partner. We may go see her plastic surgeon in Jan. before we see the craniofacial board just to get his opinion. If she needs any additional surgery we want to make sure it is all done before the summer on the off chance we will be moving.

Nathan is doing well. The change of weather is causing some minor respiratory issues, but thankfully he has been healthier than he has been in years past. Addie and I went with his class to the pumpkin patch on Monday. All the kids really seemed to enjoy the tractor ride throught the "Haunted Forest," the story teller, the swings and slides. They all got to take one pumpkin home with them. Addison really enjoyed it while we were there, but last night she ended up sleeping in our room because she was thinking about some of the skeletons we saw.

Hope you all enjoy the fall weather.
