A reason for everything...

Kai had a great session today with Lisa!  They praticed jumping again, and also sang a few songs.  His new word of the day is "duck".

I was talking to her about Kai's surgery and she was so happy that we are being so proactive with him.  Its funny to hear someone say that, cause all I/we are doing is what is best for our son... why wouldn't we do it?  Yes, its expensive (we do have insurance, but have to pay it out of pocket), and we are having to make sacrifices to make it happen, but when it comes to your kids, its not really a sacrifice at all. 

She was saw Kai doing one of his "normal-for-him-kooky-things" like hanging upside down from the couch... she explained to me that there is a reason he does that - to releave some of the pressure from the fluid behind his ears.  When he asks daddy and papa to do the flippy do thing they do, its cause it helps him feel better (see dad - its for his own good!  haha). 

The surgery will hopefully also help him be less cranky... don't get me wrong, he is a happy kid, but he has his moments.  He has been dealing with this annoyance in his ears for months - that is bound to make him crabby!  It should also help his sleep (he wakes about 3 times a night... all I have to do is pick him up for 3.3 seconds, give him a kiss, and restart his CD).  And it should also help, in general, his balance.  He has a tendancy to fall alot and run into things... Poor kiddo!  Only two more weeks!
