Happy New Year!

The 6 month hiatus in posts is rather indicative of our life over the past 6 months!  Nealon is an ACTIVE child who doesn’t like to sleep much!

During this time Nealon has met a lot of extended family including his three great grandparents, several aunts and uncles, great-aunts and uncles, and cousins!

Nealon turned one in November!  We celebrated in the rain with cupcakes and friends.

His favorite things include bath-time, books, crunchy carbs, the piano, the guitar, being outside, wooden spoons, trash cans, and power cords.  He’s a cruising and climbing machine!

Nealon continues to develop well.  The only issue of concern to the doctors has been his extra-large head.  We were sent to a pediatric neurologist.  Using the previous ultra-sound, the doc was able to determine that Nealon does have fluid on his brain.  It is benign and at this time they aren’t concerned about it.  It should diminish over time and his body and head will balance out.  As long as his head stays consistent on the “Nealon Curve” and we don’t notice anything odd, we’re clear to keep moving forward!  (The neurologist also measured our heads.  With Luke she nodded and acknowledged that the large head might run in the family.  Sarah is “perfectly normal!”)

Life is constantly changing.  We are enjoying California but do miss being closer to family.  Luke is really enjoying his job and is finding more direction as some potential changes are in the future at Grace Pres.

Luke and Sarah are both trying to blog more:
