Swingin' in the snow, just swingin' in the snow...

Since the weather was so nice today (50 degrees!), Momma let Ezri and me play outside for a while. I love, love, LOVED it!!!! Look! I go to try out my new snowsuit (thanks Grama!).

The other day Uncle Dj came to borrow my old swing for Baby Matthew and I was going crazy trying to get in it. Momma got the message. She knew I really missed swinging. So today she shoveled out under the big boy swing and let me swing away. Of course, Ezri wanted to swing too...and I don't mind sharing.

Looks a little different from our summer time photo from July....

I had a great time playing with bubbles today! Every time Momma blew some I said, "Bu bu! Bu bu!" ...and then I would put my finger out and say, "pop pop." Momma and Daddy thought it was way cute.

Geoffrey's Birthday Club

The other day I got a birthday card in the mail from Geoffrey Giraffe, with a gift card, telling me to come into the store for a surprise...so Momma and Daddy took me Toys R Us today. I got a special birthday balloon and crown - and they even made an announcement for me over the speakers int he whole store!

(Sorry this video is sideways. Momma wasn't really thinking when she shot it, and turned the camera sideways...then realized there was no way to flip the video...silly Momma!)

I used the gift card to buy one of my favorite things...a book!

Big Boy Tubby

I've graduated.

Nebulized...

So I have had this cough (for almost a month now) and although I was just at the doctor a week ago (and he said I was fine) my cough got much, much worse over the last 3 or 4 days. Yesterday I started tugging on my left ear. I have had a little fever too, and I keep waking up at night coughing and having trouble breathing...so Momma decided to take me to the doctor again today. She thought they were going to laugh at her and tell her I was perfectly fine...that it was just a bad cold...but she wanted to make sure.

I have a double ear infection again...and low oxygen. They made me use a nebulizer while I was there. Then they made Momma take it home with me. Now I have to use this said nebulizer for a week.

Luckily I am the easiest, most laid back baby EVER, and I don't mind. I even hold the tube in my mouth all on my own. No protesting (unless I really want to suck my thumb). Daddy was really rather sad about it all - but Momma reminded him it could be much, much worse. The plan is that my nasty, nasty cold will be all gone in a week and I won't need the nebulizer anymore. Keep your fingers crossed.

"All Done"

While visiting Grama and Pop I started doing the ASL sign for "all done" and saying it too! At first Momma and Daddy weren't sure if I was really doing it, or if it was just a coincidence...but I keep doing it every time I am finished eating. Momma took this photo of me doing it at breakfast time...then she videotaped me at lunch.

A New Year...

Starting the new year off right...
...a nap with Daddy. I have another cold - cough, coughing, and green snotties. Momma thought the extra nap would be good for me, and she knew Daddy could use one since it is his last day of vacation and he spent the better half of the afternoon snow blowing the driveway. After Momma took this photo she joined in the nap festivities herself. Naps are nice. Who could resist?

And now, for a neat piece of Memphis trivia...
Today is January 1st (1/1) and I am exactly 1 year 1 week and 1 day old. All 1s!
