March Madness

Hello from the Hettinger's. I know it has been a really long time since I updated, as many of you have pointed out! :) We have been busy as usual. Kate is getting bigger and changing everyday. By getting bigger, I mean heavier. Definitely not a lot taller! She's a shorty...only at the 16th percentile for her height! We think it makes her look even cuter as she crawls around and walks along the furniture. She's trying really hard to walk, but hasn't taken any steps by herself yet. In other Kate news, we've been having a really hard time with ear infections. She's gone through several antibiotics and we can't get them cleared up. So we are going to have her hearing checked tomorrow and see the ENT doctors on Tuesday. We may have to put tubes in her ears. We'll see how the appointment goes and keep you posted.
Work is going well for Chris and Allison. Chris is getting close to being done with his fourth year in residency...one more to go! He's on the job search now. We're hoping to narrow things down in the next month or two. I'm still in limbo about my job for next year. With the economy in the tank, Mayo is tightening up everything. They are still hopeful about renewing my position, but still haven't told me anything for sure. It's a little scary not knowing, but I have faith it will work out.
Anyway, here are some pictures to make you all happy! Talk to you soon.

I'm so EXCITED!
