The Sexson 6

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and is having a wonderful New Year so far! We haven't been doing much the last two weeks except for lying around and taking some time off. We've been staying up late almost every night either watching a movie, playing Wii, or playing some other game. And then we all have been sleeping until at least 9 the next morning. It has been sooooo relaxing. I have hardly done any housework so I'll have a whole lot of catching up to do next week. Micah has been off for the the past week which has been a great Christmas present to all of us. We also got to spend a few days at his parents' house with the rest of his family.

We've had some other things going on besides Christmas. Micah and I celebrated our 10th anniversary on December 18th!! We got to go out to eat and go bowling while his parents watched the kids for us. We usually don't exchange gifts, but we decided to this year. I got him a blu-ray player and he got me a beautiful diamond necklace.

As many of you know, we had a scare with Aubrey last month. Some of you asked me quesitons through texting and I tried to reply, but I'm not sure all of them went through. My new phone has not been very good with text messages. Anyways, when I took Aubrey in for her 4 month old well child check-up, her head had grown from the 25% to the 75% while her body had only gone from the 5% to the 10%. Also, her soft spot on her head was not sunken in like it should be. So we got an appointment for the next day to have a head ultrasound at Children's Hospital. I am so thankful that we were able to get in that fast because I would have made myself sick if it had been any longer than that. They were thinking the she probably had hydrocephalis (or "water on the brain") which would mean that she would have to have surgery to have a stint put in. Thankfully, the doctors said that everything looked normal. We go back in about a week to get her measured again. I'm still not completely at ease, but I'm not worrying as much. Thank you to everyone for the prayers!! I know that there were many being said that day!

I will try to post some pictures of Christmas,etc. later. Thanks for checking in on us!
