We had an 80th (I think?) birthday party for my grandma. She requested no red or green because that was always her birthday colors.
We went to see Santa at Cabela's and that was a big fat NOPE from Kade. The other 2 look cute though.
Our good friends hosted their annual Ugly Sweater Christmas party. It was so much fun and laughter. The white elephant gifts are always the best part.
We got a letter from Spencer's school in November that said he should probably get his eyes checked. Since neither me nor Nate has eye issues we thought it was just the school being overly cautious. We ignored it for a few weeks and then decided we might as well get him checked. We spent almost 4 hours at the optometrist and turns out Spencer has amblyopia in his left eye and was compensating with his right eye. I was amazed how bad his eyesight in that eye was. He could never really catch a ball and we thought he was just uncoordinated, turns out he just couldn't see!
We left with a prescription for glasses and directions to patch the good eye for 4 hours a day, so luckily not at school, and return for a follow up in 6 weeks. He choose green and black Michaelangelo Ninja Turtle glasses. They're the coolest.
Santa also visited Spencer's class at school, and he thought that was really neat.
We of course hit up all the Christmas lights in the area, and the carriage rides downtown. That was a highlight for the boys.
We spent Christmas at home this year which was a bummer as all the Moeller family was together in Arizona, but with Garrett being a hard baby and sleeping poorly, and with our travel history (remember how we ended up in the ER last time we were down there?) we just couldn't swing it. But we promised to visit in the spring/when we figured out how to help our baby feel better/be happier/sleep better. And when Nate and I felt sane again.
