Big city, huh. Not so big from here.

Really great

Met Great-Grandma Clara today! She's awesome.

Hi Aunt Jen!

Michigan City, as it turns out, is far away. Dad gets grumpy when Highway 421 detours.

We've got ants in our pantry. Mom and Dad cleaned out the cupboards.

Now anything sweet has to go into tupperware.

No walk today. 

Raining.

Exam Day

FACT: Most anxieties are no match for the Crinkly Blanket!

Rockin' da hatbox

Dad says Mom used to wear hats a lot when they first met. Must be one of those genetic things, 'cause I've got hats too. 

(Rose sent me this one--thanks!)

Bottle Blues

The 'rents are trying to get me to eat from a bottle again, in preparation for something or someone called Tuesday. Don't know how I feel about this Tuesday.

Bouncity bouncity!

Got this cool hand-me-down from cousin Henry; I think it's called a Johanna Jump-Up.

The box says it's going to improve my gross motor skills, balance, and grasp of cause and effect. Dad says that last part is what the huge, powerful spring up top of the straps is for. He and Mom cackled a little when he said that. I wonder why.

First thing I ever picked up off the table and threw on the floor.

It's gonna be a great summer.

Dad turns 40 today.

Mom says she spent 9 months working on his present, but I haven't seen it, yet.

The CSA truck was late and it was hot.

By the time we got home I was too tired to even eat.

Slow day. Watched Mom clean out the fridge in anticipation of tomorrow's CSA.

It was riveting.

I've Got Your Toes is my new favorite song.

Went to the Ren Fair and was almost stolen in infancy... by this guy!

It's hard to tell who's winning sometimes...

Yeah, I slept through the night. No biggie.

I've been on this thing more times than I can count, and I'm still the same. Maybe the table changes.

We went to go pick up our CSA but  - WHOAH - they picked ME up!

Heard on the kidney front. It's still the same (slight hydronephrosis). My pediatrician isn't worried, but wants me to see a urologist to see if there's any long-term monitoring we need to do. (sigh)

I get how this laundry thing goes now. Mom and Dad wash it. I dirty it. They wash it again.

'M just doing my part.

Aarghowa! We're thinking of going to the Ren Fest, and it's pirate weekend. 

I have to find something to wear.

Happy Mothers Day!

This one's for all the moms, and grandmoms, and great-grandmoms out there. I brought you flowers!

You know, it's just not the same.

The 'rents have been trying all sorts of things to get me to sleep on my left side because my head is 'warped'.

...

I don't think any amount of propping up is going to stop the puns...

(Got my (hopefully) final kidney ultrasound today. Waiting for the word from the baby vet.)

This is as close as you'll ever see me to that.

First CSA delivery of the summer. Mmmm.

(You would think, agoo, if I was allowed to pose with them, I would be allowed to eat them. 

You would think that.)

Tried sitting up today (with help). Gungehwa! That's hard work.

Boowah! Finally made it home to my own crib. That was 28 hrs in the car since Tuesday!

Traveling in the car is a lot more boring than advertised. Sigh. At least I have my diapers and nummies.

Met a bunch of the Buffalo area cousins today. Here we are. I'm the little one in the middle.

Went to Cousin Mary's med school graduation. While there, took the opportunity to consider long-term plans for World Domination. Charmed, I'm sure.
