McBean is now 9. He is doing great at school and has actually had services removed and decreased on his IEP. The folks at the school can't believe how much he has changed since the beginning of the year. We are really happy with his school (which is different from the one he was at when we first moved to Minnesota). It is 2 minutes from our house and the McBean is really happy there. He has friends and is doing great at KidStop as well. We will be having his 9th birthday party at AirMaxx (trampolines) in a couple of weekends. I actually had to limit the number of friends for him to invite because he has too many.

We absolutely love having our house. We are completely settled in and have made a few minor changes/improvements. I think the best part is having a garage, but we are really looking forward to working in our HUGE yard this spring. Bob wants to plant some trees and lots of veggies and herbs to go with the stuff that is already out there (raspberries and asparagus).

It is also great to have a big space for the McBean to run around in. Having the fence is nice as well, as I don't worry about him running into the street.
