My surgery went well. I was a good patient, or so Mommy and the pretty nurses said. Dr. Russel said that I had watery fluid in my ears, and that the tubes should help a lot. I went back to daycare the next day.
I must say that I do feel better. It's like a whole new world for me. I hear things much more clearly. I like to dance to the music Mommy plays! I've got two moves now. I can wiggle and bop.
On Christmas Eve, Eve as Mommy calls it, we went to dinner with Lily, Megan, their parents and Erin. I had pizza for the first time. It was awesome! I really like spaghetti too. I got a cool tool set I turn the screws and it sings a song!
We went to Grandma Katy's the next day for Christmas Eve. It was snowing! Mommy was all excited about that. I got to play with Hailey, Thomas, Khloe, Sean, Molly, Luke, Jared and Amber and Natalie. Mommy helped me open my presents because I wanted to play with the bows that were on all the other presents. I got books, and clothes with my name on them, a concrete mixer truck, dress up clothes, and more cars! I can't wait to play with all of them.
I stayed up late on Christmas Eve because we were at Grandma's and there was so much to do and see. I was pretty hot, so I put on one of my new outfits. It was a green t-shirt that said "future farmer" and had a green tractor on it. Grandpa Carl liked that shirt a lot.
Mommy and I let Daddy sleep in and met Grandpa Carl and Grandma Katy for church. Then we went to Aunt Johanna's house for more presents and brunch. I'm a fan of brunch. I really like breakfast casserole! Yummy!! I fell asleep in the middle of presents because my tummy was full from breakfast. I am very excited to play with the new toys I got and have already worn some of my new clothes!
In the evening we went to Great Aunt Barbs for more food, family and presents! I was happy to have turkey and mashed potatoes for dinner. I learned what land line phone looks like. Did you know they have cords on them? I got to see my cousin Blake there too. I was totally worn out from all of the events of the day. I slept for almost 12 hours!!
Yesterday Mommy and I met Grace and Aunt Johanna at this place to go sledding. I wasn't quite sure what it was, but once I did it. I liked it. I wasn't a fan of putting on all of the clothes though. I could barely walk with the big snow boots that I had on. Mommy carried me up this big hill! We had to share the sled with Grace because Mommy let Thomas borrow hers. It worked out good though, Mommy got tired of carrying me pretty quick. We went down the hill really, really fast! Mommy tried to slow us down and that made snow go all over our faces!! It was super fun though. I can't wait to go again!!
Be sure to check out my photos!!

Cold Baby
Man has it been cold! I've had to wear my "Elmer Fudd" hat lately. I just call it my warm hat, but Mommy calls it this "Elmer Fudd" thing. I don't know who this Elmer guy is, but if I meet him, I'm going to ask him what is so special about his hat.
Oh, my I need to tell you about my night with Jody! Me and her had an awesome time! She was telling me about her pigs and she read me books too. I went to sleep with her there, but I knew when Mommy got home. I wanted to talk to Mommy, so I woke up and then Daddy put me back to sleep, it was pretty late. I hope Jody comes to watch me again, she is pretty.
After my night with Jody I got to visit Leta and Bill for a long time. Daddy was setting up new computers for them. They have their computers downstairs. I like that, because I like to crawl up stairs. Well, at least until Leta came and got me. We made a game out of it. She'd usually let me get to the third or fourth step before she'd get me. Sometimes I'd wait for her to get there, I wanted her to get me!
So the following Tuesday (Dec 7) I met a different Dr. I met Dr. Russell. He told me that I have to get "tubes" in my ears tomorrow(Dec 21). He said it's the only way to get the fluid out from behind them. He was a nice guy and said that I would be ok with getting the tubes. I'm not scared because he said that it only takes 10 minutes to get them. If it means that I won't have to get medicine all the time I'm all for it. I feel like I've been on medicine for the last three or four months.
Last Wednesday I got to see Lily & Megan! We ate dinner at Mommy's favorite place. She let me have a potato to eat! I also had some garlic bread. I got to see Lily, she is such a smiley girl.
On Friday we had a big party at Daycare! I got a photo taken with a red hat on...it was a gift for Daddy and Mommy. I also got some awesome toys and clothes from Dawn, Brie and Reyna! They take good care of me and I love them very much.
On Saturday Mommy and I went to "kindermusic". It was lots of fun. I made a set of jingle bells. I could have played with them all morning, but had to put them aside for a while. Then we got to know everyone by jumping and swinging. We then got to play with these sticks. Mommy kept trying to get me to hit them together since that's what everyone else was doing. I just liked them and watching what everyone else was doing. I walked around and saw the other kids hitting their sticks to the music. I was sad when I had to give the sticks back. But, later on we got to use our jingle bells again. After we did that we got to see Santa! I wasn't really a fan of him this time, because I had too much fun dancing earlier. I was tired and cried when he said hi to me. You can see in the photos.
I took a long nap on Saturday, and then hung around at home until Grandma Karen came! She had a surprise visit from Leta. I arranged that for them. I knew they missed each other, so I had Mommy and Daddy have Leta come over after Grandma Karen got my dinner to me. Oh, we played and played. It's awesome to have two Grandma's watching you. I showed them my new toy from Dawn, it's a walker. I haven't quite figured it out yet, but I like the noises it makes!
Yesterday was a long day for me. We got up early and met Grandpa Carl & Grandma Katy at church. Then we went to breakfast with them. I was so tired, I would fall asleep in the car, but then we'd be somewhere and I'd wake up! After that, we went to see Erin. Her brother graduated from "ISU". That sounds pretty cool, I think I want to do that. I was playing and playing and discovered that I LOVE Avanti's bread. THEN we went to Aunt Chris' house and I played with Thomas, Hailey, Uncle Denny and Aunts' Carol and Mary. They were making cookies or something.
I was sooo tired, Mommy and I came home and took a nap. We slept so long that we were late for my cousin Braxton's birthday dinner at Grandma Karen's. Luckily they waited for us to get there. I was playing "come and get me" with Grace. It was lots of fun!!
Thanks to everyone who has sent me Christmas cards! I love them. Mommy reads them to me.
xoxo

My birthday party is at Pheasant Lanes on January 1st at 2 pm. You are invited to come! Please email Mommy if you plan to bowl. It's more of a open house, come and go, just stop to give me hugs!!

Turkey Time
I must say that I now know why everyone calls Thanksgiving "turkey day." It is a wonderful food. It tastes so good! I'm not quite sure why all of the big people fall asleep after eating it though. It didn't make me sleepy. In fact, when we were at Aunt Chris' house I didn't take but one nap and struggled with it.
I got to see lots of family on Thursday! We got to sing Happy Birthday to Uncle Tim. I had fun showing everyone how I can walk instead of crawl. However, I still crawl if I want to get somewhere fast. I am getting faster at this walking thing though. Sometimes I don't even think about what I'm doing and all the sudden I'm across the room.
I'm starting to eat more food on my own now. I don't have to have Mommy or Daddy feed it to me. I eat peaches that are bite size. Peaches are silly though...they slip out of my hand. I wind up getting the juice all over my face in the process. Sometimes they end up on my lap and I sit on them. I think I'll get better at it over time though.
On Monday we went to visit Grandma Katy for her birthday! Aunt Mary and Hailey brought her and Grandpa a cold cake. Grandpa's birthday was yesterday! I went and saw Dr. Kaye on Monday too. My ears are red again. I have an appointment to see what they call an ENT. I wonder what that means.
I went to Mommy's work with Daddy last night and saw Linda, Cynthia, Brian and Tabitha too. I wasn't feeling very good though and wasn't myself. Mommy stayed home with me today so that I could feel better. I'm taking medicine again. I started to feel better after about 11 am.
I got two new winter coats this week! I got two because Mommy thinks I'm bigger than I really am. The 18 month coat fits just great...I was not a fan of the 2T one...my hands would disappear when I was wearing it!
I've been sleeping a lot with this latest ear problem. Daddy and I fell asleep on the floor in the living room last night. Mommy couldn't find us, but then she heard us both breathing. Daddy must have moved me into my crib, because that's where I woke up this morning. I had lots of snot stuck to my nose. It's pretty sore from all of the yukky stuff coming out of it. My favorite place to wipe my nose is on Mommy's shirts.
I'm going to be hanging out with Mommy's friend Jody tonight! We're going to play and play. I'm going to show her all of my cool toys and race her up and down the hallway. Mommy said it's supposed to snow tonight, I hope it does. Daddy and Mommy say that it's fun to play in!
