Spring Break




Hi everbody! I'm enjoying springtime and the warmer weather. I like to be outside and get a kick out of the wind when it blows. It must be the feel of the air that gets me all excited and makes me laugh. My Grandma Ree took these photos of me. She's here this week spending her spring break with me. She's going to watch me this week and give me a break from school. I like to play on my new playroom floor. It probably won't be long before I crawl. My feet and legs move, and I can hold my upper body up high, however haven't figured out how to make my arms move with my body yet. In this other picture, I was enjoying the outdoors today. We were watching my mom plant flowers. I have very fair skin so my mom lathered me up with sunscreen and put this funny hat on me.

Graduation Day!!




Hi there! Lots to update...Here I am in my big bathtub in my new house. I graduated from the sink to the bath tub. As you can see, I'm sitting up. I still wobble some but for the most part can sit up by myself. For now, I sit in a cushiony area in case I fall backwards. My new house is great. We are slowly getting settled in. I have a new purple room all to myself! Last week was a busy week for me with moving and a few trips to the dr. Of course, my week wouldn't be complete without a dr. visit of some sort:) My loss of weight caught my pediatrician's attention so we got into see the GI dr. right away. That dr. switched me to Emfamil Lacto Free, which I like tons better than the Alimentum! So far, so good! I really haven't thrown up since last week. My teachers at school are impressed at how good I've been. I think that they're happy that they are not changing my clothes so much! Also, school is going well. I graduated to the Level II classroom. My new teachers are nice. I like watching all the babies crawl around in my class. Soon enough I will join them! I also caught a bad cold last week and my mom took me to the ER on Sat. morning for another ear infection. Ear infections are the worst! Luckily, we now have "miracle" ear drops that my mom and dad put in my ears when they start to hurt. Also, today I graduated from getting my monthly Synagis shots. My dad took me to the pulminologist for my last shot. They gave me a colorful Dora sticker when I left. Boy, am I happy to not have to go back there!...fingers crossed!
