December...

We have celebrated one Christmas already, with the Latshaw's. The first weekend in December Aunt Becky came in from Florida (we missed Marcos, wish he could have made it.) and Cousin Julianna came in from Wichita. We had a great time with all our family. We also had an unannounced visitor, Santa Claus came to our house on Sunday, 12-6. We are celebrating another Christmas this weekend, with the Bowman's. Aunt Kari is coming in from South Carolina. And the Bowman crew from Carroll. We are so very lucky to have a family that will come to us, as it is not easy for us to travel.

We have had a lot happen, to make a long story short, we are going in for a sleep study tonight at Children's Mercy South. This will give the ENT much information about his obstructive sleep apnea and how many time he de-sats (oxygen decreases) during the night. We already have a tonsil and adenoid ectomy surgery on January 14 at Children's Mercy Downtown. His tonsils are very swollen, hindering his breathing. With this surgery our goals are to help Carson breath better (obviously) and to decrease our need for oxygen while he is sleeping.

We will keep you updated as we learn more....

Love The Bowman's, Happy Holidays to all!!!
We made Ginger Bread Houses this year. Carson was very proud of him self (I was also proud!)

A Santa Claus blessing.
Just settled in for a long winters nap....

Such a great photo of Carson and Santa snuggling! Hope all goes well with the sleep test and then surgery. You will all be in our prayers for a successful and speedy recovery. Merry Christmas from our home to yours.
