Busy Busy,...Happy New Year

Since the middle of December I have been up to my eyeballs in an work matter that has been challenging but offered many instances to learn from. One thing asside from work is I am trying to find a place where I can get my son enrolled into DEERS but there are only limited options that force me to take time off work to do so. Its safe to say that while the federal government has cut back on certain programs that are meant to support reservist servicemembers, the effectivess o the initatives started by these 'good idea fairies' is questionable at best.

Jason is doing well. He weighs 12 pounds now (about 5.5 Kg) and yesterday was a big day. No more NG tube for him. His Doctor OK'ed it and he is getting most of his formula fed to him by bottle now, even through the night. My wife wakes up to feed him trhoughout the night, but we are much happier and relaxed that we don't have to worry Jason might pull the NG tube out at night. He seems happier with it too.

I have alot I have to do today, but I will work on making more frequent posts as things go on. I have bunches of things to catch up on, but everyone should know we are all doing OK and our holidays were not too bad.
