I know I just talked to you a few days ago, but Friday was such an important day, I didn't want to wait to share. First let me tell you about Thursday. I had a great day with Dawn and Casie. Then Mommy picked me up and we came home and took a nap. Mommy didn't sleep well the night so she was tired.
We woke up and went to the Verizon store. Mommy got a message on that thingy she won't let me play with saying she could get a new thingy. I was excited for her. Maybe she'll let me play with her old one...but I doubt it. We were there for about an hour and her new thingy will be here next Friday. There were a lot of people in the store. I wonder if they all got the same message Mommy did?
When we got done, we met up with Daddy. He went out with his friends from work. He hadn't done it in a while. We went to dinner at Fiesta Ranchera for the first time in a long time. Back when I was little, I couldn't handle spicy food that Mommy ate. Now that I'm older, I'm getting better at it. Mommy has even had her Chinese food spicy for the last two or three times. We ran into Chris and Tony. Chris' sister Petera was there with her friend. They both played with me while Mommy and Daddy ate their dinner. When we were there I had an ENTIRE tube of my blessed carrots with oatmeal. This is the bigger tub too, not the little ones either.
Friday was another long day, but not a bad one! Mommy picked me up so her and Daddy could go with me to my six month Dr. Appointment with Dr. Kaye. I'm almost 7 months old now, but she's busy with school physicals so it took us two weeks to get in to see her! I got weighed and stuff here are my stats:
Weight: 18 lb 9 oz = 50th percentile
Height 26.5 in = 25th percentile
Head Circumference: 18 in = 80th percentile
I also got more shots. They hurt A LOT. However, it wasn't so bad because Mommy was distracting me. She was feeding me when it happened, and for some reason that makes it all better. Seeing as how the end of the appointment was pretty stressful, I was exhausted. So I took a nap right away when we got home. Mommy took one too and then we went to Grandma Katy's to visit for a while. She was telling me stories of her trip to Las Vegas with Molly, Aunt Chris and Molly's friend Becca. I can't wait until I get to go to Las Vegas. It sounds like a hot place to be.
Today, I got to go to the fair! Well, kind of. Mommy had to work so I played with Daddy all morning. Then when I got up from my nap, we went to the fair. They are still getting things set up it seems. We got to see a lot of people there! I saw, Kathy W., Hannah, Rosemarie, Grandpa Carl, Great Uncle Joe, Tante Rosemary, and Uncle Marshall. Those are just the people who I've met before! Mommy said that there will be even more people there the next time I go. I'm very excited!
I came home with Mommy because Daddy wanted to work on his car. He says he's almost got it ready to run again. I'm excited because I might get to ride in it soon. I'll be happier when he makes it not quite so loud. It's really loud right now.
Hope to see you at the fair!!

A Whole New World
The past seven days have been so much fun! Last Thursday I went by Mommy's office to visit again. I got to meet Jeannea for the first time. She said that I'm pretty heavy. I also sat with Michael and Robin held me for the first time. I played on the floor with Sandy for a while. Mommy had this cup on the floor for me to play with and I wanted it sooo bad! I had to reach and reach for it. Eventually I got to it, but by then I was on my tummy. I had been sitting up. I like to sit up!
On Friday, Grandma Karen came over to play with me! Mommy and Daddy needed to fix some pump in the basement. They went to Lowes like 3 or 4 times!! Daddy finally gave up for the night and then Grandma went home to Grandpa and Hannah the dog.
I figured out that I can move around. If I stick my legs out straight and then pull them towards me while I hope a little. Mommy calls it scooting. I scooted to this box on the floor our living room four times in a row! Mommy says it's time to child proof the house. I wonder what that means.
On Saturday we went to see Erin. Her family was having a party because her sister is visiting from California. Mommy said that California is far away so it's a big deal when she is here. I got to meet Luci, Charlie, Jack and Jamie. Luci's mom is Moira. I also got to meet Hal and Jimmy. They are other nephews that Erin has. She had friends from school at the party. One of her friends is friends with my Aunt Carol! Her name is Tina. She had a lot of fun playing with me.
I had lots of people hold me at the party. So many that I can't remember all their names. It rained a long time at the party. There was thunder, lightning and wind too. I didn't notice it to much though, I was playing with the people who where holding me most of the time. It was a lot of fun, and I was super tired when we got home.
On Monday I went back to see Dawn and Brie. Brie has a big tummy! She's been at day care every other day for the past several weeks. Dawn said that today she had a baby! When Mommy dropped me off at day care she was already in the tub at the hospital. She had James sometime later in the morning. Dionne was there with Brie. That makes me very happy because she was with me, Daddy and Mommy when I came here too. Dionne sent Mommy a picture on her phone of James and said that I have a new friend. I can't wait to meet him!
I'm getting a lot more talkative now, I practice all the time. I practice so much and so loud that Mommy and Daddy have to stop the tv so they can hear it. I think it's funny when they do that. Didn't they know it was a contest to see who is louder? I win every time.
On Sunday I tried toast for the first time! I like it a lot! I like it when it gets all soggy and then I can swallow it better. It's also fun to drop it over the side of my high chair and see where it goes. I've been trying to eat these little star things too. The toast is easier to hold.
Mommy gave me some strawberries to try for the first time on Monday. I don't know if they are better than my 'favorite' carrots, but they are AWESOME! Mommy was holding a piece of strawberry so I could suck the juice away. I was sucking so hard that it slipped out of Mommy's fingers!! That made her nervous, so she pulled it out of my mouth. I wasn't expecting her to do that so I got real mad.
Last night Mommy let me try some chunks of her green beans she was eating. They were good and I liked chewing the bigger pieces. The only bad thing is that she wasn't giving them to me fast enough. So I had some that was all ground up with rice.
Hope to see you soon, the fair is next week and Mommy says that I get to go!

Loving Summer
I think I like summer. It's light out for a long time. I like feeling the warm all over my body, except when I sweat. I like going for rides in the stroller and have fun looking at all the cool things I see.
On Thursday night I got to go to work with Mommy. I got to see Dakota and Betsy again and I met Taylor and Andrew. They made a video and I'm in it! Mommy thinks it's funny. I was a good boy and played by myself until I got hungry. Then Mommy gave me a bottle and it was GREAT. After that I was sitting on the table playing and leaned too far forward and some came back out. It went on my leg and everything. I didn't mind much, but everyone else thought it was funny. I got to see Linda and Sharon too. Sharon had a meeting so I couldn't talk to her. Linda and I played for a little while.
On Saturday we went and visited Grandma Katy for part of the day. Mommy did some research for Grandma and Grandpa on how they can save money on their phone bill. I took a nap at Grandma's while Mommy did her research. Then that evening we went to Stanford to see more fireworks! I got to hang out with Kathy W's girls and she held me the entire time during the fireworks. I fell asleep because I was tired and was trying to block out the big BOOM's. Daddy said that they are the best fireworks he's seen. Knowing Daddy, that's a pretty good set of fireworks. Maybe next time I'll say awake for them.
Sunday Mommy was making bubbles for me. I was following them around. Sometimes they would come at me and sometimes they would fly up in the air real high. She took some pictures of me watching them. I also was watching this thing that was real small carry something. He looked like he was lost, he kept going in different directions. Mommy thought it was funny to watch me watch him. I bet he didn't think it was funny. He was probably crying because he couldn't find his family.
Later on I was really excited about my toy! Mommy was telling me to "get that toy" and I was so excited I screamed every time she said it! It was so funny the way she was telling me to get it that I started laughing and couldn't stop. I hope all my toys are that funny.
On Sunday night we went to Grandma Karen's for dinner. I got to see Grace, Braxton, Aunt JohAnna, Grandpa Ed and Uncle Phil too. Grandma held me while Mommy fed me some sweet potatoes and rice. Grandma says she's going to have her high chair ready for me next time we go for dinner. I like to sit in high chairs.
Last night Mommy bought me a high chair. It goes on regular chair. I like it a lot. The view from up there is amazing. It a little bit different than when someone holds you.
Today Mommy took me to see Dawn and Casey early. She had to stay home so some people could fix our basement. Mommy says that it will be nice and dry when they are done with it. Mommy said that they used jackhammers. I wonder what that looks like. This evening, we went for a stroller ride. Mommy was going to take me to the park to swing, but the park was full of people. We just kept on walking. That was ok with me because I was tired. I had a long day. And I had almost a whole tub of green beans with rice. YUMMY.
Don't miss photos from the past week!
Happy 21'st b-day to my cousin Molly, she is 21 on the 21'st. That's her golden birthday. I'm already planning for my golden birthday in 2012.

Christmas in July!
It was nice to have a "normal" week. Mommy didn't have to work late at all, but she did have to go in to work early on Thursday. Daddy got me ready for day care and took me to Dawn's. Mommy picked me up early and we played and played until Daddy came home.
When I'm at Dawn's I eat oatmeal. I like it a lot. Every morning all the kids say hi to me when I come. "Myles is here! Myles is here!" they say. We got to go to the park last week! I get to ride in the stroller it is a lot of fun!
Now that I can sit up by myself I like to play a lot with different kinds of toys. Mommy and Daddy took me to Toys R Us to get some new ones! I got a hammer that makes noise and lights up and a dump truck that pops. Some of the toys are a bit old for me so I might not get to play with them right away.
Later on Saturday night we went to see the cars again. Daddy didn't bring his because he's still workin' on it. We got to see Toni's new Vette and Greg's new Vette. They are practically the same, but I noticed some differences. They both are blue. Toni's Brian brought his yellow Vette too. We saw more distant cousins related to Daddy. We went out to eat after at the place with the big fire. Mommy and Daddy had steak. I was tired after such a long and exciting day.
On Sunday I woke up Mommy at 7:30 and when I was done with breakfast, we went and met Grandma Katy, Aunt Carol, Uncle Tim, Thomas for breakfast. Daddy got up and came too. We ate outside near the place where the things fly. Later in the day on Sunday we went the pool with Aunt Carol and Thomas! I was almost lying on my back with Aunt Carol holding me. I splashed more and more. It doesn’t bother me too much when I get water on my face. I got tired and took a nap while we were there. Mommy and Thomas went on the lazy river and Thomas was jumping off of this board thing.
Later that night Erin came over and hung out with me! We played with this thing and it had bright colors coming off of it and it would turn real fast when the wind blew on me. I was just watching it and watching it. Mommy was helping Daddy with putting the engine back in his car. They worked for over and hour and had to quit because something didn't work right.
On Monday night Mommy and I went to see Lauren, but she wasn't there. There are other babies there too. Mommy has a special name for where we go but I can't remember it. It's one of the few places that I feel like I can eat out in the open like at home. When we're out and about, Mommy covers me up with this thing and I can't see so well and it makes me hot. My friends there are Keegan and Hope.
Tonight Luci came over and played with me so Mommy could help Daddy finish his car stuff. It turned out that Daddy didn't really need Mommy's help so Mommy pulled a couple of weeds out in the front yard. She said it is HOT outside. I believe her, because I never wear pants and I sweat ALL the time!
Gotta run, after having bananas two times in a row, last night and this morning at day care, I'm a bit fussy...either that or I'm officially teething, says Mommy.

Happy Independence Day!
Last night was great! I got to stay up late! Daddy put on a show. It was real loud! There were booms and bright lights and oohs and ahhs! We were at Lily and Megan's house. There were lots of people there. Klohe was there too! I saw Thomas, Aunt Carol, Grandpa Carl, Grandma Karen, Lily's Grandma Sue, Greg, Angela, Mike and many others. Daddy was busy most of the time getting ready for the big show.
Before the big show we went to see some famous people. First there were fire trucks to lead the way, then there were a bunch of big black bikes. And then Mommy said they were soldiers, and they were riding bicycles across the country. No loud motors on their bikes, just moving their legs up and down, if they had them. There were a few who were moving their arms up and down. That looked much, much harder.
Once they passed us by we went near this big building to watch a ceremony. A lady gave us each a flag, with white stars and red stripes. The people cheered and yelled in support of them. During the ceremony it started to rain, we were soaked by the time we got back to the car. It was fun though, I'm glad I got to see those soldiers.
I'm sure that you saw the video Mommy shared about the new sounds I can make. I got to go work with her on Monday night because she had to work. I saw lots of doggies! We were in a big room. Mommy fed me a new food. It tasted ok, but the texture was weird! Mommy said it was turkey. She gave up on feeding it to me because I didn't really like it much.
On Tuesday, I got to go to work with Mommy again! This time we were in a room with lots of screens. I got to see Kathy W, Hannah and Claire. They were showing me what they do in 4-H. I was helping them with these forms they fill out. Mommy was busy talking with other 4-Hers about what they need to remember about 4-H. I like going to work with Mommy. Daddy was happy to be able to work on his car while we were gone. The weather was nice and cool.
Wednesday I tried peas for the first time. They tasted pretty good. I ate them two nights in a row. That was not good. They gave me gas! I woke up screaming at 4:30 am on Thursday morning. Mommy was worried about me. Then on Thursday night after we went to Grandma Katy's for dinner, I woke up at 1, 4, and 5:30 am. My tummy HURT! The only good thing is that Mommy and Daddy were there to take care of me. Mommy says no more peas for quite some time.
On Friday, I went to day care with Dawn and Brie while Mommy and Daddy went to look up some information in Jacksonville IL. They found out information about my Great, Great, Great, Great, Grandpa Patrick Hines. They picked me up at the usual time and then we went to Lily and Megan's house to meet up with Kylie and her parents. Kylie lives far far away in Washington. Her parents worked with Mommy and Daddy at State Farm. I got to go to Ming's for the first time. It is a busy place. I tried sweet potatoes for the first time. They are pretty good.
On Saturday, we slept in a little bit. I can now sit up for a long time. Unless I'm looking at something above my head, then I fall backwards. I was practicing that and fell over a few times. Mommy took my six month photos. She took LOTS of pictures of me. In the afternoon we went for a car ride. Mommy had to do some work. When we came back we went to Grandpa Carl's for dinner. We ate outside, Aunt Mary used Mommy's camera to take some MORE photos of me. I tend to be cute all the time, unless I'm hungry or have gas.
I hope you had a great Independence Day weekend! I did too, and the proof is in the pictures...if Mommy ever get's them all posted so you can see them!
Happy Birthday to Hailey's mom...aka...Aunt Mary!

A week of firsts...
This past week flew by again! I wonder when things will slow down. Tuesday Mommy picked me up from day care early so we could visit at her office again! I got to meet Michael for the first time. He helps out in the office a few days a week. I also got to play with Rosemarie, Kathy W. and Kathy S. I talked to Emily, Randy, Brian, Don and Robin too. I missed Linda though, she left before I came.
Wednesday was a special day. Mommy and Daddy went out by themselves. I got to stay home and Luci came over to play with me. We had lots of fun. We got to go to the basement because it was storming outside. Mommy was sending messages to Luci on the phone, I know that because Luci kept giggling after reading some of them. I was a good boy and went to bed at 8 pm. I slept until 5:30 in the morning! This has become a habit for me.
On Thursday, Mommy wound up going to a meeting at work. I hung out with Daddy. He and I like to play with my computer that lights up and plays songs. It's one of my favorite toys. I went to bed for Daddy right on time too.
On Friday, Mommy had some special time for herself. She came home later than usual and then Molly came over! Mommy made spaghetti and I tried to eat some of her food. Since I can eat my own food now, my #2's have been changing a lot. Mommy says they STINK! I don't think they smell bad, no worse than her's do. Mommy freaked out with one I had on Friday. She said it looked funny and made Daddy and Molly look at it too. I've poo'd more this weekend than I ever have it seems.
Saturday Mommy had to work in the morning, so I made sure I got her up on time. I'd hate for her to be late. She left me with Daddy, and I took a nap with him until about 9 am. Mommy didn't get home until almost 1 pm and I was hungry then took a 2 hour nap. Then Mommy fed me again and we met Molly at the pool! It was lots of fun. We sat in the bubbly water and I got to lean over the side and splash the water at the people in the round things. Mommy said on a day it's not so sunny we could go in the lazy river, but it was too sunny.
After we went to the pool, Mommy took me over to Grandma Katy's. Her and Daddy sneaked off to a movie. I got to see Aunt Carol and Thomas. Grandma and Grandpa fed me some applesauce for the first time. I liked it a lot! I got to fall asleep at their house. Today we slept in, since I didn't fall asleep at Grandma's until 9, I slept until 6 am! Mommy was very happy.
We got to go on a car trip today. We went to the Beef House after a stop at a big red building. I got to see Lily! We played for a little while before we left. I took a tap in the car the whole way there, and the whole way home...that makes car rides go quick. I suggest it for everyone but the driver.

Did you know?
My mommy can hold me and balance on one foot to take her sock of with out falling down.
I sit up by myself, but I'll fall over eventually.
I like to stand with my hands on the back of the couch.
I like applesauce!!!
I'm starting to giggle, it's quite cute, if I do say so myself.
Wednesday was a special day. Mommy and Daddy went out by themselves. I got to stay home and Luci came over to play with me. We had lots of fun. We got to go to the basement because it was storming outside. Mommy was sending messages to Luci on the phone, I know that because Luci kept giggling after reading some of them. I was a good boy and went to bed at 8 pm. I slept until 5:30 in the morning! This has become a habit for me.
On Thursday, Mommy wound up going to a meeting at work. I hung out with Daddy. He and I like to play with my computer that lights up and plays songs. It's one of my favorite toys. I went to bed for Daddy right on time too.
On Friday, Mommy had some special time for herself. She came home later than usual and then Molly came over! Mommy made spaghetti and I tried to eat some of her food. Since I can eat my own food now, my #2's have been changing a lot. Mommy says they STINK! I don't think they smell bad, no worse than her's do. Mommy freaked out with one I had on Friday. She said it looked funny and made Daddy and Molly look at it too. I've poo'd more this weekend than I ever have it seems.
Saturday Mommy had to work in the morning, so I made sure I got her up on time. I'd hate for her to be late. She left me with Daddy, and I took a nap with him until about 9 am. Mommy didn't get home until almost 1 pm and I was hungry then took a 2 hour nap. Then Mommy fed me again and we met Molly at the pool! It was lots of fun. We sat in the bubbly water and I got to lean over the side and splash the water at the people in the round things. Mommy said on a day it's not so sunny we could go in the lazy river, but it was too sunny.

Happy Daddy Day!
Today was a big day. The day for Daddies. I love my Daddy. He knows just how to rock me. He and I watch drag racing on TV. I'm his buddy.
This was another crazy week. Last Sunday was very lazy day. I got to see Erin twice this week! She came to visit to use the internet. She gets her own internet on Wednesday, I hope she'll still come to visit after. She hung out with Mommy and me while Daddy went to visit Aunt JohAnna.
On Tuesday, I hung out with Daddy because Mommy worked late. I'm getting better at going to sleep with out Mommy. I got to eat my beloved carrots again this week at Grandma Katy's. We stopped by there so Daddy could borrow a tool from Grandpa Carl. Oh carrots are my favorite!!
On Friday night I went to the pool again! This time Molly came with us. We were playing in the water. Mommy said I was a tug boat. The sun was really bright so I wore my sunglasses in the pool. When we were done at the pool, we went back home and I was tired. I fell asleep in the car on the way home! Mommy says I should swim every night, maybe I'd go to bed sooner.
Saturday was a busy day. Mommy, Daddy and I went to Peoria. We stopped to visit Dorothy! We were playing, she helped me master my giggling skills. I was pretty wound up. She is a funny lady. After Dorothy's we went to a store so Mommy and Daddy could buy some clothes. We went from there to Wing Stop on the other side of town and Mommy fed me while Daddy went to the Schnucks nearby to get some Caffeine Free Diet Dr. Pepper for him and Mommy. Mommy hadn't had any since she brought me home from the hospital.
We stopped for gas on the way home in Morton. I was NOT a happy person. I wanted more food and someone to hold me. But NO, Mommy kept on driving. So I showed them, I cried ALL the way from Morton to Carlock (about 20 miles). See, mess with me and I'll show you who's boss. I finally fell asleep and slept from Carlock until we got home.
Grandpa Carl was there with Grandma Katy. He was going to a baseball game with Mommy and Daddy. I guess it was 4-H night. Molly came over and we played while they were gone. Molly read me a new book from Aunt Chris.
Today is Daddy's day. Mommy and I let Daddy sleep in. Then we gave him the card I picked out. He liked it a lot. After that we went to Aunt Mary's and I ate some pears again, they didn't taste as bad as last time. I think it helped because Mommy thickened them up with rice. Thomas was there, he was playing in Hailey's little pool. I forgot my swim trunks, so I didn't swim. It was sure hot enough though. I took a nap while I was there, between playing with Aunt Carol, Uncle Tim, Grandma and Aunt Chris.
When we got done at Aunt Mary's we went to Grandma Karen's. We got to see their new deck. Grandma Karen told Mommy she wants to come swim with us. I can't wait! Aunt JohAnna was playing with me, and Grace was telling me stories. Great Aunt Barb and Uncle Phil were there too. We came home early because I was exhausted! So many people love me, it's hard to keep up.
Happy Daddy Day to all the Daddies everywhere!
I've recently received some cool items from people who love me. I got two quilts. One is from a friend that Mommy works with. Her mother made a quilt. I also got a quilt from Great Aunt Linda. Mommy likes it a lot because it has sheepies on it. Mommy says she's going to take some photos of me with them, but hasn't had the chance to do it yet. Stay tuned.

Tales from the Bumbo, my first date and and the Pool too!
My life is changing slowly. I've been introduced to this new thing, and now I eat three ways. I've mastered eating with Mommy, and with the thing they call the bottle too.
But this new way is similar to how Mommy and Daddy eat. You get to hold something in your hand. Well, at least every time I tried to when Mommy did it the first time I ended up with wet stuff on my face. It didn't really taste like much either. But, she kept giving it to me and so I ate it.
A week or so after I had the tasteless stuff I was introduced to the bright "yummy yummy carrots." They were yummy! I would eat them every day if I could. Mommy gave me them about every other day. Each time she gave them to me, I slept ALL night. That was my thank you to her for giving them to me.
I love carrots so much that I would get excited when I got them! Mommy would give me more sometimes. But one time, she thought I was still hungry, and she made some of that other stuff...it has no flavor like the yummy yummy carrots. I told her " Do not tease me with this tasteless stuff after the sweet sweetness of carrots." Mommy posted it on her Facebook status, and she got lots of comments.
I even wrote a poem about carrots...
Ode to the Carrot
by
Myles
Oh carrot you are so sweet
You really make me want to eat
You slurp and slime your way to my tummy
Reaffirming that solid food is yummy
No matter where you come from
When I eat you, I will sing and smile and hum
Oh Carrots, oh carrots how I love you
Please say you love me too!
Don't you just feel better now? I sure do! But then that Mommy of mine she played me for a fool. She traded out those carrots for something new. Erin gave them to me first. I think that should have been a clue something was different. Erin did a great job feeding me, but I wasn't a fan of the pears. They weren't yummy...they were yucky. I managed to swallow most of them, but I made some pretty good faces to show my disapproval. I didn't sleep all night after those pears either. Mommy almost got the hint because the next time she tried them on me, she mixed some of that tasteless stuff with them. All that did was combine two things that don't taste great into a new thing that doesn't taste great. I ate as much as I could but lost interest very quickly.
Tonight I had the privilege of trying "yummy, yummy Green Beans". Surprisingly they aren't that bad. Carrots they are not, but I think I like them.
I had a date this week. I know I know, Lily and Klohe if you're reading this we're still cool right? Mommy's friend Nancy wanted to see me, and so we hung out at our house after day care on Wednesday. It was fun, she was playing with me the whole time! She said she'd see me again at the end of the month. Not sure when that is but it sounds like she won't be gone forever.
But last night, last night was very different. We went to the "pool." We met up with Aunt Mary and Hailey and went to State Farm park. It was a really cool place. They have a big building you walk through to get to the water. Once we all got our clothes changed we went outside. It was pretty windy Mommy was worried I would get cold. I didn't until the end. Mommy put me in the water and let me stand up. The water was pretty cold! But after a few minutes it didn't seem as cold anymore. Then I sat in a chair that was in the water so Mommy could take pictures of me.
After that we went to the BIG pool with two slides. Mommy said I'm not big enough to go down those yet. Well, we played in the water and probably a little to much. I kept spitting up little bits at a time so Mommy said I was done. Most of it went on my onsie I was wearing. Then Mommy wrapped me in a towel. I was exhausted. Megan and Lily and their parents got to the pool just about the time I was done. So I got to sit on Lily's dad's lap (Mike) and I took a nap. After I woke up and Megan and Hailey were done playing in the water we went to the snack shop to eat dinner. Mommy had the worst hamburger ever. She took 3 bites and that was it. I got a good snack before we went home to see Daddy. He'd worked late and then visited Grandpa Carl for a while about a tool for his car. I woke up Mommy three times because I didn't eat any carrots before bed.
I was all smiles today when I went with Mommy to a work meeting. I got to meet Betsy, Dakota and Michaela. Dakota is my buddy. He is silly. Betsy played with me while Dakota and Michaela had a meeting about 4-H. Mommy keeps trying to explain what she does and I just don't get it. I guess I have lots of time to figure it out. She keeps mentioning this thing called a fair. I wonder what that will be like...

Sleep on...
I feel like I've slept through the past week. It all started on Monday when Mommy and Daddy didn't go to work. I thought they were taking me to see Dawn, but no, we went to breakfast.
Things got back to normal on Tuesday...except I was real hungry when I got home from Dawn's. Mommy fed me and then I ate a 6 oz bottle of formula. Wow, was that filling. I slept from 7:30 - 11. Then I ate again and went right back to sleep. Mommy was thankful that I slept better than I did on Monday. I think it was because I was just exhausted from having too many things to do.
Wednesday I slept again from 7:30 to 1:30. Mommy couldn't believe it! She did however get a little sad because she didn't get to play with me very much after work. I did the same thing on Friday and Saturday nights too. Mommy and Daddy think I'm going through a growth spurt.
On Saturday I got to go see Grandma Katy while Mommy and Daddy helped Erin move into her condo. I guess she had some stuff in our basement. Erin and her Mom went with Mommy and me to go to Grandma's. Mommy and Daddy came back a few hours later with Luci, Molly and Erin. They all ate pizza and had ice cream.
While I was at Grandma's I showed her how I roll over. She thought that was very cool. She even called Mommy on the phone to tell her about it. She sang to me and we played the whole time, except when I had a bottle. I took a short nap, but I couldn't sleep. I was too excited.
We got home from Grandma's around 6 pm and Mommy fed me again and I fell asleep at 6:30 and slept until 11 pm. Then I woke up Mommy at 1 and 3. We got up for the day at 7 am. I played in my saucier. I love it. I've figured out how all of the things work. Mommy gave me a bath and took my five month pictures.
Then I was tired so I took a 2 hour nap. Daddy was working on his car this afternoon, and I got to hang out with Mommy outside under one of the trees she was trimming. I was playing with my car keys. Daddy says I need to practice now so I can drive when I get older. Grandpa Ed stopped by to borrow something from Daddy. He says I'm getting big!
Mommy got this new bath tub for me. I really like it! I taught my self how to splash! I can stand up in it. Mommy has always got a hand close by when I'm standing or sitting. I could play in the tub all day! Check out my photos and videos.
Last night I slept from 8:30-4:45. It felt good to sleep that long in one stretch. Mommy liked it because she didn't have to get up to feed me. I wonder how I'll sleep tonight...

Happy Memorial Day...it was memorable for me!
Another week has gone by. They go so quickly! On Sunday we went to two parties. I got to see Mommy's work friend Kathy W. Her daughter Gracie graduated. Kathy was so excited to see me. She carried me around and introduced me to all of their friends and family. It was fun, I got to meet one of their kitty's too.
After that party we went to one of my third cousin's graduation party. I got to see Grandma Karen and all a lot of my Westfall cousins. After that we went to the store so Mommy had food for work.
On Tuesday we went and saw Barbara, Dave, Adam and Alexander. Adam was playing a game outside. They had this ball that they would run after. It was hard for me to follow, because I was talking to Barbara most of the time. It was very warm and sunny, Mommy had my sun hat and my sunglasses on.
The week went by very quickly, but luckily I got to see Erin on Thursday. We went to Sam's to check prices on things she needs for her new condo. I got to ride in Mommy's new Kosy Carrier. I really like it. I like being close to Mommy.
On Friday things got pretty crazy. I got to meet Alfred and Marielle finally. I've been hearing about them since before I was born! They call me the "Prince from Bloomington." I think I like that title. On Friday, we played with Grandma Katy waiting for them to arrive. Then we went to cousin Sean's graduation from Tri-Valley HS. It was VERY warm in the gym, but Marielle was keeping me cool. I started to fall asleep, but then the band played this song, and I was afraid that it would have a "BAM" in it, so I stayed awake for the rest.
I got to see Hailey at the graduation too. After that was over we all went to Aunt Chris' house to eat. I was hungry when we got there, so Mommy fed me. I was so excited to see everyone that I got tired. I was having trouble going to sleep at Aunt Chris' house. We got home around 11 and I slept until 5 am.
Saturday, we went with A & M to Aunt Mary's house to see Hailey and Dillon and Daisy and Uncle Marshall. I played with Hailey's toys and took a nap most of the time. We then went to Grandma Katy's for a cookout. Barbara came over and helped Marielle talk to Daddy and Uncle Tim. Saturday night we got home at about 9 pm. Daddy gave me 4 oz of formula and I slept from 10:30-5!
Sunday was a big day! It was Sean's graduation party! Mommy and I met up with Grandma Katy, Grandpa Carl, Aunt Carol, Uncle Tim, Thomas, Alfred and Marielle for church at 9 am. Mommy fed me right before we left so I took a nap while Aunt Carol was holding me. Alfred and Marielle met up with Tante Rosemary and Uncle Joe after church, so Mommy I went to Target to buy Sean some items for when he goes to college. Then we came home and Mommy, Daddy and I all took a nap before Sean's party.
Right before we were getting ready to leave Grandma Karen stopped by! I got to play with her for a little bit. She was very happy to see me. We headed out to Aunt Chris' & Uncle Denny's house. It was HOT. I had on a new pair of bibs I got from Marielle and Alfred. They didn't last the entire party though, I got hot and Mommy took them off. I got to see Tante Rosemary and Great Uncle Joe for the first time. Uncle Joe said he likes to read my blog and look at the pictures Mommy posts!
I played with lots of people at the party...Klohe, Kasie, Tina, Luci, Mike, Carol, Tiffany, Danielle, Thomas, Chuck, Karen, Marshie, Sean, Marshall, Grandma Katy, Marielle and Alfred. Tina put me to sleep and I slept in the pack-n-play in the shed for 3 hours before Mommy and Daddy went home at midnight! However, I don't like being disturbed...so I woke up Mommy at 1 am, and eventually got to sleep in bed with her because she was tired.
We were up at 6:30 am to get ready to go to breakfast one last time with Alfred and Marielle. We also saw more 'shirt tail' cousins of Mommy's. After that we went and visited Aunt Chris and Sean real quick to get something Mommy forgot at the party. Then Daddy went home to work on his car and we went to help Erin move her computer and bed. I slept a lot while at Erin's...I've had a BUSY weekend! More stories to come soon.
Mommy also told me that Uncle Joe's bird on his hat and shirt stood for him being a soldier. She said he was in the 101st Airborne. When I get older I'm going to ask him more about that. Mommy and Daddy said it's important to thank past and present soldiers today...so thanks you guys!!
Mommy said there are lots of pictures uploaded, but not all are up yet! Stay tuned!!

Mommy fed me right before we left so I took a nap while Aunt Carol was holding me. Alfred and Marielle met up with Tante Rosemary and Uncle Joe after church, so Mommy I went to Target to buy Sean some items for when he goes to college. Then we came home and Mommy, Daddy and I all took a nap before Sean's party.
Right before we were getting ready to leave Grandma Karen stopped by! I got to play with her for a little bit. She was very happy to see me. We headed out to Aunt Chris' & Uncle Denny's house. It was HOT. I had on a new pair of bibs I got from Marielle and Alfred. They didn't last the entire party though, I got hot and Mommy took them off. I got to see Tante Rosemary and Great Uncle Joe for the first time. Uncle Joe said he likes to read my blog and look at the pictures Mommy posts!
I played with lots of people at the party...Klohe, Kasie, Tina, Luci, Mike, Carol, Tiffany, Danielle, Thomas, Chuck, Karen, Marshie, Sean, Marshall, Grandma Katy, Marielle and Alfred. Tina put me to sleep and I slept in the pack-n-play in the shed for 3 hours before Mommy and Daddy went home at midnight! However, I don't like being disturbed...so I woke up Mommy at 1 am, and eventually got to sleep in bed with her because she was tired.
We were up at 6:30 am to get ready to go to breakfast one last time with Alfred and Marielle. We also saw more 'shirt tail' cousins of Mommy's. After that we went and visited Aunt Chris and Sean real quick to get something Mommy forgot at the party. Then Daddy went home to work on his car and we went to help Erin move her computer and bed. I slept a lot while at Erin's...I've had a BUSY weekend! More stories to come soon.
Mommy also told me that Uncle Joe's bird on his hat and shirt stood for him being a soldier. She said he was in the 101st Airborne. When I get older I'm going to ask him more about that. Mommy and Daddy said it's important to thank past and present soldiers today...so thanks you guys!!
Mommy said there are lots of pictures uploaded, but not all are up yet! Stay tuned!!

My first illness...
Last week was quite eventful. That's why I haven't written. I'm recovering from my first illness. I'm fine now, so don't worry. But, before I get to that I've got to tell you about the fun stuff that happened before!
On Tuesday, the 11th Mommy had to work late. So we got to hang out int he morning. We went to her work and visited everyone. I got to see both Kathy's, Rosemarie, Emily, Linda, and Sharon! I was ready for a nap though, after everyone held me I got kinda fussy. Mommy had Kathy S hold me and she is an experienced Grandma. She knew just how to put me to sleep. I fooled her though, because when Mommy put me back in my car seat, I woke back up. After that I went to stay with Dawn until Daddy could pick me up. Daddy and I were hanging out on the couch. I learned that I can sit up. I was practicing it for a long time.
On Wednesday, Erin came to visit us. She was telling Mommy stories about how she's getting ready to move into her new condo. Her and Mommy talk a lot when they are together. It's hard for me to keep up sometimes. I was busy trying to stand up while Erin was helping me.
On Thursday, I started to cough so I went to Grandma Katy's instead of daycare. I didn't really know why I was doing it, I couldn't stop it from happening. Mommy took my temperature and said that I didn't have a fever so I was ok. My cough then turned in to sneezing and coughing. Mommy called the Dr.'s office and they said that if I didn't have a fever I didn't need to come in. I went to Grandma's again on Friday afternoon, Mommy stayed home with me in the morning because I didn't sleep well on Thursday.
On Friday night, I was miserable. I could NOT stop scratching my right ear. That made Mommy think this was more than just a cough...so she said she was going to take me to the Dr.
Saturday Morning, we went to State Farm's parking lot. We got my seat inspected and adjusted. I got to play with Mommy in the back of the car most of the time. However I did get to meet the Neigh-bear. He was pretty quiet. I got my picture taken with him. After that it started to rain. Once we were done with that, Mommy took me over to the Dr.'s office. Dr. Kaye wasn't there so I saw someone else. He said that both of my ears were infected and that I needed medicine.
I wasn't quite sure what they meant by medicine. Mommy took me home and then went to get the stuff at Walgreen's. When she got back she had a bottle of some stuff. It has a big long word on it. Since I can't read I just figured it will help me get better I'd better take it. Mommy used this pointy thing to give the medicine to me. I wanted to hold it. Then all the sudden this thick stuff was in my mouth. The taste is hard to describe, but it's definitely not formula or Mommy's milk.
I also got what Mommy keeps calling ear drops. There is another little bottle that it comes in. Mommy has Daddy warm it up before she gives it to me. I don't like it when it's not warmed up. It must work though because once I had them in I could hear a LOT better! I started talking because I could hear again. Mommy was worried about me making these sounds...but she's getting used to it.
I didn't sleep well on Sunday night, which was day two of medicine. I think it was because I didn't realize how sick I was. Mommy said my body was working real hard to make me feel better and that it needs help from the medicine. We didn't go anywhere on Sunday or Monday. Mommy picked up my illness on Monday and so we slept most of the day.
Tuesday I was feeling better. Mommy worked all day and then had to go to a meeting at night. She wasn't feeling any better after her meeting. Wednesday she went to the Dr. She got some medicine too. Mommy said she had a sinus infection. I don't know what a sinus is, kinda sounds like a name of a person. I don't think I would want to be friends with Sinus. Especially when he makes Mommy cough like she was and she kept making noise with the white things by her nose.
Mommy started to feel better on Wednesday after she got her medicine. Since I was feeling better, I slept from 8 pm - 2:45 am! I did that for Mommy, she need some rest. Mommy thanked me for sleeping so long. I'm glad I could help out. Last night I slept ok, but woke up too early for Mommy.
Mommy had something cooking overnight, because I could smell it. She asked Daddy to help her with it because she needed to take it to work with her. She said it was for a staff retreat or something. Daddy took me to see Dawn because Mommy hadn't taken a shower yet when it was time to go. She picked me up early and we went to see Dr. Kaye!
I had what they called my 4 month 'well baby check.' Here are my stats:
Head: 17.25 in - 90th percentile
Height: 24.75 in - 50th percentile
Weight: 15 lb 3 oz - 50th percentile
Dr. Kaye said that I'm doing real good! And she said that Mommy and Daddy can start to give me some cereal. I'll keep you posted on that, I don't know what it is...
They also made me cry. I'm not a fan of it either. The only good thing is that Mommy was there to make me feel better. Mommy said that I had a fever tonight. That explains why I was not happy and I tried to tell her by crying when we were at Grandma's for dinner. She gave me some other medicine for that, and it's helped a little.
I'm off to bed I'll talk to you all later...be sure to look at my pictures!

Mom's rock!
This week Mommy was home a lot more. We played on the floor and we've been reading this book about what sound a duck makes. I think I need to see some of these animals in person, they seem a little small in the pictures.
Mommy has been teaching me how to make a new noise. Daddy doesn't think it's such a good idea. He says it's a bad habit. I think it's funny when Mommy makes the noise so I want to do it too. I've just about got it figured out. There will be video when that happens...according to Mommy.
I tend to fall asleep eating with Mommy. That means that she gives me a bath in the morning before I got to see Dawn. I had a nice bath and got lotion put on and everything. When she took me in to see Daddy I burped...and spit up. It went on my clean clothes! And on Mommy. Oops. I wasn't quite clean anymore. But I was clean enough to not get my shirt changed.
That night we went for a car ride. This time Aunt Chris was in the car with us! She was talking to me a lot on the drive. We went to see cousin Sean play on the U of I campus. They played two songs. I was really liking the first song, that is until it made a big BAM! It scared me and so I cried! I wasn't expecting that! Luckily Aunt Chris was holding me and she made it ok. After that she covered my ears when it was going to go BAM. That made it much better. Mommy took video, so hopefully she can get some of it up online for you to watch soon.
After the performance we went to get Sean so that he didn't have to ride home on the bus. Mommy sings a song to me about busses so I kinda know what they are. I was hungry when we got done and couldn't wait to get to the pizza place we were going to. So I ate in my car seat while daddy drove there. Mommy had a bottle for me. I felt much better after I ate! I got hungry again before we left, so Mommy and I went to the car for me to eat. I didn't sleep very well on the ride home, and finally went to sleep around 10 pm.
Yesterday morning I let Mommy sleep in. I woke up at 12:30 and 3:30 am to eat. The second time Mommy let me eat in bed with her. We slept until 7:30 for me to eat again. Then we finally got up for the day.
We went to breakfast and I got to meet Nancy and Kathy. They work with Mommy. They liked me a lot. I got so many kisses, I was glad I had on a bib! They kept passing me back and fourth, I almost couldn't tell who had me sometimes. I took a little nap when Mommy's food came. Then we all went to Mommy's work and hung out in the lobby for a while. They played with me even more after Mommy fed me! They said they'd come to see me again real soon!
Mommy and I ran some errands before picking up lunch to bring home to Daddy. I didn't take a lot of naps and was pretty tired the rest of the day. I went to bed at my usual time of 8:30 and slept until after 5 AM!?! Mommy said she was up at 3 am because she was ready to feed me. She made some milk for later for me. I was starving when I woke up.
I finally went back to bed around 6:30ish with Mommy. We slept until about 8:30, then I ate again and she got ready to go to Grandma Katy's for breakfast. Daddy made waffles and Uncle Tim cooked the sausage links. Grandma made a breakfast casserole that Mommy said was real good! Aunt Mary brought cheese cake and fruit. Aunt Carol and Thomas played with me. Thomas is a funny, he makes faces at me. I even got to see Molly after she got off work!
I was tired from seeing everyone and took a nap while Mommy put in a load of clothes and downloaded more photos from the day. Then we went to Grandma Karen's for dinner. I played with Aunt JohAnna for a time, and I spit up a lot of my food on her. She wasn't fond of it because she had just taken a shower...but she said it was ok. I wasn't the first to do it to her. That made me feel better. I played with Aunt Barb and Grandma for a while too.
I'm glad that my Mommy is my Mommy. I hope you're glad your Mommy is your Mommy too! I love Mommies...and Mine just a bit more.

Hugs for Everyone
Last week was very weird. Mommy had to work late two times. On Tuesday, I spent the afternoon with Grandma Katy. We had lots of fun. I got to see Sean too. On Thursday, I hung out with Daddy.
Wednesday we went to Pekin with Mikey to see Greg. He was in a suit and we went in a big house. We said hi and then Mommy fed me in another room. After that we went to dinner and Mommy changed my diaper in the office of the restaurant we were at! After that I had pains in my tummy and Daddy sat with me in the car. Then Mikey came and we went for a walk while Mommy and Daddy finished their dinner.
On Friday we went to see Lily and Megan. Lily and I are buddies. We like to swat arms at each other. It's funny because Mommy and Angela like to talk about what we are thinking. If they only knew.
Saturday Daddy went to Chicago with Mikey. Mommy gave me a bath after breakfast and then we played. Grandma Karen and Grace came and hung out with me while Mommy got a massage. We had lots of fun, Grace likes me a lot! Mommy and I took a nap together afterward because Grace and Grandma wore me out.
I was wide awake at 3:30 am on Sunday morning. So, Mommy let me play with my gym until I got tired. Once I did, she swaddled me for the first time in forever it seemed. We slept on the couch together until I was hungry at 6 am. Then I was ready for some sleeping on my own.
Yesterday I turned four months old!! Mommy says I'm getting big. I have to admit that I am getting the hang of using those things that hang off my body. I like to grab things with them and put them in my mouth. I like it when Mommy sings the "Itsy Bitsy Spider" song to me.
I got to sit outside. Mommy was taking my picture a lot. I also got to see more cousins for the first time at a party we went to. I got to see Aunt Barb and Uncle Phil, John, Tim, Shara and Brenda. I took a nap on Brenda and Grandma. I was playing with Aunt Barb, she makes me laugh!
We all took naps after the party and then went to see Grandma Katy and Grandpa Carl for dinner. Aunt Mary, Uncle Marshall and Hailey stopped by too! Hailey likes me a lot, and we hugged. She has six teeth now. I'm jealous, I want a tooth. Hailey was sitting in my bouncy seat, I guess I can share it with her.
This morning I gave Daddy a special present! He wasn't expecting it though. I managed to not get any on the onsie I was in too. Isn't that funny!
Hugs to you!

I'm back...
I'm glad that Mommy filled in last time, but she didn't tell you some very important things I did last week. On Saturday we went with Lily, Megan and her parents and Grandma to Gill Street. There was a band playing but it was too cold for us to watch them outside. I liked it inside where it was warm anyways.
Lily was sitting in my car seat for a while so we could talk. We were talking about all kinds of things, but I can't tell you. They are secrets. I was holding her hand and and she was holding mine too. Mommy said that we were flirting. I like Lily, but she's still a girl. Girls have cooties!
Mommy had spicy food for lunch, so I spit up all of my dinner on her right before it was time for us to go. I think that's where Mommy got the idea for one of her top ten. I didn't mean to spit up, but I don't like Popeye's chicken!
Sunday we wound up staying home and my cousin Sean came over and planted something in the front yard. Mommy says that he has to take care of it. He came by on Wednesday to mow our yard and water the plant. Sean likes to mow our yard but won't be able to soon because he'll be going to college this fall. Mommy said we're going to see him graduate. I don't know what that means, but I bet there will be a party with a lot of people to hold me. I like parties.
This week has been a roller coaster for sleeping for me. One night I sleep in my crib just fine, and the next night I'm in bed with Mommy. I've been getting hungrier lately, the 4 oz I eat at day care each time isn't enough. I want more! So, Mommy is going to increase my food to 5 oz.
We went to Grandma Katy's for dinner last night. Grandma likes it when I smile at her. We were playing and talking. Her and Mommy are trying to figure out our history. Mommy's made some contacts to distant cousins. They are descendants of my Great, Great, Great, Great Grandparents Patrick & Catherine Hines. Wow! Mommy said that we might get to meet them this fall.
Mommy says to give a Happy Birthday to Alfred. His birthday was on Tuesday. They are back from Germany and will be in Milwaukee for the next two months. They are very excited to meet me. Alfred calls me a King. I wonder what the perks are of being a king. Mommy said I'll get to meet them at Sean's graduation party.
I gotta run, Mommy needs to get ready for work!

Mom's Top 10
Since I didn't take a ton of photos this week, I thought I'd fill in for him. It is amazing how fast the days and weeks have gone by since going back to work. I am amazed at how much I accomplish, I thought I was busy before he came along. Yikes...he's not even crawling yet.
This week marked the first and second washing of the Bouncy seat. I just cleaned it in the washing machine for the first time in 3+ months and had remarked to Tony about it. In the first 5 minutes, yes 5 minutes of Myles sitting in it, he poo'ed all over it! Granted, if he had pants on it might have just gone on them. But, seeing as how it was 85 degrees in the house, it was a no pants day. Back in the washer it went!
Myles has started to communicate. We have conversations in the language of hissing...between full fledged smiles. He is screaming a little bit too, the first few times he scared him self. That was fun to watch.
It is interesting how many things you learn being a new mom. It's very different than being an Aunt. I pretty much had that down pat. I will say that all the years of being an Aunt paid off though. Here are the top 10 things I've learned so far in being a mom...
10. Never remark that something has stayed clean, and how miraculous it is. It will be dirty the next time you look at it.
9. No matter how tired you are you will be awake and coherent enough to walk in the dark with a screaming baby and not run into anything.
8. Always have water while nursing...even if you just drank an entire 20 oz.
7. Make an effort to hit the restroom before nursing...it seems to take that much longer on a full bladder.
6. Wearing spit up in public is quite the trend.
5. You think being drooled on was gross when it was not your kid. News flash, it's still gross when it's your kid, you just realize it's a new accessory. Kind of like earrings or something.
4. You appreciate how your intuitive mind kicks in and all the sudden are amazed while you talk on the phone, hold the baby, and hang clothes at the same time.
3. To appreciate sleeping for 4-5 hours at a time, you wake up so alert and not quite so panicky.
2. To appreciate not sleeping for 6-7 hours at a time...can you say engorgement?
And the most important thing I learned so far...
1. Always shield yourself from the hose.
This week marked the first and second washing of the Bouncy seat. I just cleaned it in the washing machine for the first time in 3+ months and had remarked to Tony about it. In the first 5 minutes, yes 5 minutes of Myles sitting in it, he poo'ed all over it! Granted, if he had pants on it might have just gone on them. But, seeing as how it was 85 degrees in the house, it was a no pants day. Back in the washer it went!
Myles has started to communicate. We have conversations in the language of hissing...between full fledged smiles. He is screaming a little bit too, the first few times he scared him self. That was fun to watch.
It is interesting how many things you learn being a new mom. It's very different than being an Aunt. I pretty much had that down pat. I will say that all the years of being an Aunt paid off though. Here are the top 10 things I've learned so far in being a mom...
10. Never remark that something has stayed clean, and how miraculous it is. It will be dirty the next time you look at it.

Busy as a Bee
Wow, it's been over a week since I've been here. There just isn't enough hours in a day. Especially when I spend all day with Brie and Dawn and then all evenings with Mommy and Daddy. I've been going to bed earlier around 9 pm so sleep is eating up my nights.
Last week I got a lot of cool new things. Mommy said she showed you pictures already. So, you've seen me in my Bumbo. I like it, but I spit up in it...a lot. I got some dark thingy's that go over my eyes. Mommy says that they look cool. They make it so I don't have to blink as much when I'm outside. I like that.
I also got a coool new light up toy. It plays music and has big things that light up. I think it's fun to watch them in the dark. Mommy said it's like being at a disco or something. I don't know what a disco is but it sounds fun.
Wednesday night we went to Grandma Katy's for dinner. Mommy, Grandpa and Grandma ate fresh asparagus from Grandpa's garden. They said it was real yummy. Daddy skipped out on it, but ate baked beans that Mommy doesn't eat. It was fun to see Grandma and Grandpa.
We went to dinner with Erin at Logan's Roadhouse. We were celebrating because Erin bought a house! She'll be four blocks away from us. Mommy is really excited! So am I, we can take stroller rides to visit!
Saturday we went to cruise night. Daddy has a 1969 Chevelle. Mommy and I were pretending that I was driving. (see photos) It was fun until I wiggled just right and hit my head on the big wheel thing. Oh did that make me mad. I still had fun at cruise night with Mommy, Daddy, Erin and Mikey. Greg was there too with a friend. We saw Grandma Karen & Grandpa Ed too. Afterward we went to eat at Tobin's.
We saw Grandma Karen, Grandpa Ed, Uncle Phil, Aunt JohAnna, Braxton and Grace on Sunday at Grandma's. I wasn't feeling good. Mommy took my temperature and said I had a fever. I didn't feel great, but I wasn't crying either. It was 101.4 at 7:40 when we were at Grandma's. When Mommy took it again at home at 9:50 it was 100.7. She called Dr. Kaye's office and got the Dr. who is on call. He said to give me some Tylenol and keep watching me and to visit them in the morning. Mommy took my temperature at 2 am (97.6) and at 7 am (98.3). I was feeling better but still not 100%. We went and saw a different Dr. He was nice. I weighed 12 lb 7 oz. Mommy stayed home with me and then Daddy came home after lunch. Mommy was tired so she took a nap. I ate a lot and started feeling real good about at about two in the afternoon.
Tonight I was not happy. Daddy thinks I was colicy. I didn't eat much before falling asleep. We'll see how long it lasts...

Happy Easter!
Mommy couldn't believe how fast the rest of the week went! I'm starting to get used to going to see Dawn and Brie every day. I've had a snotty nose for the past week, and Mommy took me to see Dr. Kaye just to be on the safe side. I weighed 11 lb 13 oz and was 23 inches long.
I got to hang out with Mommy at work for a little bit and saw Linda and Robin. It was warm out on Thursday. Mommy took the cover off the car seat! Now I can move around a lot better and can see what's going on! It was so warm that I went without pants or socks! Mommy put a mirror on the seat so now I can see myself in the mirror. No wonder everyone says I'm cute...it's true.
Friday was my three month birthday. I spent the whole day with Grandma Katy because Dawn and Brie celebrated Easter early. I had lots of fun with Grandma. Grandpa Carl was planting his garden.
Yesterday we went to Aunt Mary's for Easter. Everybody was there! Hailey was in her Easter dress. Thomas got a big robot kite. I got a bunny and a swimming pool. Mommy and I took a nap while we were there. We were both tired. Molly took a picture of me with Mommy and Daddy...see the photos to look at it!
Today we went to church and I went #2 in the outfit Mommy had me in. Mass wasn't even half over yet! Mommy isn't quite sure how it came out in front, as it was all over my tummy. She put me in my camo onsie because that's all we had. I didn't mind, I was in a fleece overalls and it was getting warm in there.
After church we went to Grandma Karen's for Grandpa Ed's famous waffles. They looked yummy! I played with Grandma most of the time. Aunt JohAnna wasn't there because she went with Jill to see the Blackhawks. I got more clothes and toys, one that lights up even! I even got a swim suit to go with my pool!
Daddy is going to get me ready for day care tomorrow morning. Mommy as to be at work at 7 am for a meeting. Later that night we'll get to see Lauren at the La Leche meeting.

Extended Family
Since we last spoke, I've been a traveling man. On Friday I went over to visit Dawn and Brie while Mommy and Daddy sneaked off to Bolingbrook to have some "alone time." During the day I hung out with Shay and Max. They are a bit older than me. It's hard for me to tell who is who, they look so much a like!
On Saturday we went on a road trip. It was farthest I've been away from home. We went to Macomb to visit Creenie & Pop Pop. Mommy says she has the best Godparents in the whole world. I think she does too, because I liked them a lot. They thought I was cute...so I smiled at them. Mommy is on a quest to find out how we are all related. I got to meet John & Colleen too. I came home with more clothes, Mommy can't wait to put them on me!
On Sunday afternoon I got to see Dionne! I haven't seen her in almost two months! She came over to help give Mommy some tips on saving her milk for me while she's at work.
Later that night we went to Grandma Karen's for her birthday dinner. She chose to have pork roast with mashed potatoes and gravy. I guess when it's your birthday you get to choose what is for dinner. I know what I would choose, Mommy's Milk!
Sunday night I was so tired from Aunt Jo, Grandma and Jill holding me that I fell asleep before Mommy could give me a bath! Since I knew Mommy was having a big day the next day (today was her first day back at work), I wanted to be close to her, so I fussed a little so I could sleep in bed with her and Daddy.
Amazingly, I only woke up once in the night with Mommy and Daddy close by. I got up with Mommy at 5:30 and ate. Mommy got a shower in, breakfast, and still had time to give me a quick bath before we went to Dawn's. Amazing.
Mommy had a busy day at work and had over 500 emails to sort. She said she didn't get very far because she had a meeting to go to, and lots to catch up on from being gone for over three months. I got new clothes from Sandy and a gift card from one of Mommy's 4-H clubs. Mommy said they took a collection so that I could get a new toy! Thanks Towanda 4-Hers! :)
I'm glad that Mommy is back to work, if we can't be together all day, I'm glad she has something important to do like Daddy. I've been missing him during the days for a long time now. He always comes back though. We look at car parts on the internet together and he knows just how to rock me to put me to slee.
Check out some new photos and a new video of me playing with my laptop! ;)

Happy Thursday!
Well my first four days at day care have been great. I really like Dawn and Brie. Brie likes to cuddle with me when I take my afternoon nap. Oh, and they have this light up gym that plays classical music, if the music stops I get mad! I ran the batteries out yesterday!
On Monday I was testing Brie's ability to change me quickly, and peed on her twice. I also peed on my clothes so I got a new set. Yesterday was the first day I made it the entire day in the same outfit.
Dawn says that I am a good at burping. I already knew that, Mommy taught me how. I've been drinking two 4 oz bottles of Mommy's milk and having one 4 oz bottle of formula while I'm there. That way Mommy can have a little extra milk to save up for weekends.
So far Mommy has spent the week trying to time out how early she'll need to get up to be ready for work. Yesterday she got a shower in and was 90% ready for work when we needed to leave. She is estimating that she'll need to get up around 5:30 and is going to try that tomorrow to see how it goes. Mommy wants me to go to bed earlier, but I like to stay up late. I'm still waking up to eat around 2 am, last night I woke up at midnight and 2. This morning Mommy was very tired and took a day off from practicing.
Last night we went to Alexander's for Lily's dad's birthday! I got to see both Grandma's and Grandpa Carl, Marky Mark, Greg and Lily's Grandma and Megan too! Maddy was also there with her parents. Lot's of people held me! See photos...
Today is Grandma Karen's birthday...Happy Birthday Grandma!

Big Week
Mommy posted photos from St. Patrick's day at the K of C hall. It was a nice day, I wore a t-shirt.
Thursday and Friday were warm days too. Mommy went to lunch with Robin at CJ's and we sat outside. Mommy got a sunburn on her face and arms. I was snoozing and covered because it was a little windy. Lily, Megan, Angela, Mommy and I went for walks after Angela got off work. It was nice to breathe fresh air. The sunshine was nice too.
Daddy wasn't feeling well on Friday and stayed home from work. We all stayed home on Saturday instead of visiting Mommy's Godparents in Macomb. Mommy said we're going to try to visit them this weekend instead. Daddy is feeling better now which is a good thing.
Sunday we went to visit Barbara at her house. Daddy needed to fix their computer. We were there for a long time. Mommy fed me three times while we were there!!
Mommy spent lots of time last night getting ready for me to go to day care today. I got a bath too! Mommy got more clothes for me at Target on Saturday so that I have some everyday clothes. I wore one of my new long sleeve onsies to day care today. (see photos) I know I'll have fun with Dawn and Brie.
Mommy and Daddy both went to take me to Dawn's house today. I was pretending to be asleep, but as far as I could tell they did ok. I'm almost three months old now, I can be away from them for 7 hours without a problem. I will definitely miss them, but I have good people to take care of me.
