Changes good and bad

I don't really know where to start with this one. Let's take the happy path---- Lyla is in full toddler mode. She's 19 months old and is full of piss and vinegar, as my mom used to say. She's into everything, loves doing puzzles, shapes, and is talking a little. Kris and I have moved to Altoona and Lyla makes an appearance at our house on most days. He favorite thing to do is pull things off our shelves and it always looks like a happy tornado went through after Lyla's been over for a visit. Katie is pregnant and is due in January-- the new baby will be named Stanley after his late grandfather and uncle (there are many Stanley's on that side of the family). Stanley's favorite pastime is kicking Katie in the ribs. Lord willing, Stanley will arrive in January by appointment via C-section (thank you, Lyla). Courtney is pregnant again and has just reached her second trimester. She's been horribly sick each morning and hopefully that improves as she enters the trimester where you are supposed to feel good. She is due in June, so it should be a very happy and chaotic year for the greater Grossman family all the way around.
