my very first cold

a few days ago, a bunch of people came over and they gave me lots of presents. mommy says that uncle shane, and auntie mandy and auntie crystal threw me a party. i think that's mighty nice of them. mommy also says that now i have more clothes than i know what to do with. but she forgets that i never really knew what to do with clothes to begin with. clothes are her department.

yesterday, great aunt betty and auntie kathleen came over. they sure are nice. i even tried to stop fussing for five minutes, just for them.

turns out i was fussy because i have an ear infection. i don't know what that is but mommy and daddy took me to this place, where this really mean man stuck things in my ears and then we left and then i had to take this yummy sweet stuff and then i sat in my swing and mommy and daddy were relieved because it was really the first time i seemed happy all day.

but anyways, here are some pictures of me.

this is from today. mom made me wear this outfit because it would keep my head warm. and it did! but i felt kind of silly. i'm too old for ears on my clothes, okay mom?


i love being read to. i laugh and wiggle and coo and stare at whoever is reading.



i have long eyelashes. see?


grinning at daddy.


this lady is auntie jenn. she sure got some good giggles out of me.


anyways, i gotta go. i just put my finger into my mouth and realized i might be hungry. mommy is glad because that means maybe i'll go to sleep. ha! i've got her fooled!
