hi everybody...sorry mom has not written in so long, it has been kinda crazy--i ended up getting an ear infection and some gargantuaon top teeth, so there have been many sleepless nights...and then on sunday mom and dad took me to urgent care (yes, that makes 3 visits to the dr in one week--first last sat to urgent care for the ear infection, then thurs for the well baby checkup--where i weighed in at nearly 20lbs and was 30 inches tall!! and then on sunday for....) well, ends up i was allergic to the amoxiciilin they gave me for the ear infection--i had hives covering my whole body and was just plain fussy. i had not taken a bottle in over 3 days and was also refusing solids, so mom knew something was up. now that they got me off that terrible medicine, i am back to my old ways, chowin downon solids--and i am now eating rice crispies and cottage cheese...it is quite fun feeding myself. we are sad that gamma and granpaw left, we had such a nice visit, they were very patient with me as i did not feel too good when they were here. and we got to say hello and bonvoyage to great-grams who left for the cruise of a lifetime--we are very jealous (okay, mom is very jealous0--we hope her and great aunt pam are having a wonderful and safe time. we also hope to talk to auntie emma on skype here very soon!! well all, gotta run...

Gramma and Granpaw are here!

moms alma mater--the nda pandas sent me this bib...

these are some great pics if you can get past my snot!

So friday was a big night, mom and dad's boating buddy G stopped by for the night for a visit and Gramma and Grampaw came to see me!!! I was already in bed, so they had to wait till the next morning to get a good look at me. Of course, they probably could have come up anytime between 11pm and 4am--cause I was pretty much up crying my butt off. the baysitters kid had a cold this week and she took him to the dr friday and he had a double ear infection...at that time i did not even feel sick...but sat morning we went to urgent care and sure enough i had a bad cold and an ear infection--not to mention i got both of my top teeth in and am now working on my incisors on the bottom--lots going on here. so far it has been a great visit, we have played, not really napped much, and clapped and laughed a lot. we hope to get out for a nice walk or a hike today!

im almost crawling, and boy am i gonna miss gramb

gramb left today, which makes us very sad, we had so much fun with her and she helped out sooo much. i am super squirmy, and want to try and stand all the time, either that or slither and roll...basically, just want to be on the move. here are some pics...sorry so short, but time for bed.
