18months

Jake left thursday for training in Germany. He will be back late Sunday night for about two weeks. He said that it is really cold there and to make it worse they are having to be out in the field a few days. Halia and I took him to the airport on thursday and headed home. It has been lonely and is definately going to be a challenge with him gone. Halia had her 18 month check up today. Dr.Williams said she looks great. She was 22lbs 14oz and a little over 30in. She is in the 25% for height and weight! The only bad news we got was that since her left tube fell out of her ear a few weeks ago, she now has an ear infection. I am guessing at her check up on the 11th of Feb, we may end up making an appointment to get another tube put in. Other then that, she is doing wonderful. She understands so much now and is becoming her own little person. She definately has her "1yr old" moments but I am trying to learn to brush them off as I know there will be many "moments" in the years to come that I will just have to learn to let go.
