Family fun

We’re coming to the end of our first real family vacation week. Yes, I had to work, but only 9 am-1 pm on Monday and 7:30 am to 10 am on Wednesday. We did a little bit of work around the house in the earlier part of the week, but then we decided to [...]

Nicky’s 9-month visit

We went for Nicky’s 9-month checkup this morning.  Here’s his latest stats:

Height: 29 and 3/4 inches (up 1 and 1/4 inches from his 6-month visit)

Weight: 20 pounds, 1 ounce (up 7 ounces from his 6-month visit)

His height is still in the 90th percentile whereas his weight has dropped to the 50th [...]

A fun day!

Chuck’s on vacation this week, yay! Family fun time…

I still hadn’t been feeling well, so when Nicky woke up this morning at 5 o’clock, Chuck took care of him and got him back to sleep for another couple of hours, then again until I woke up around 8:30. After Nicky’s morning nap, we [...]

At least we’re thorough

Not only did Nicky have a cold (that was very short-lived), Chuck and I now have colds as well.  Hopefully this will pay our dues for awhile…

Cory’s in the D&C!

Here is a link to the article in this morning’s paper about my cousin Cory. Way to go!

First cold?

I don’t know if Nicky got his first cold last night, or if he just had a bout of allergies.  His nose started running after dinnertime, and by bedtime, it was like a faucet.  He went to bed as usual but woke up around 9:30 all stuffy and unhappy.  Chuck and I ran the [...]

Feeding frenzy

Nicky has been eating about 2-4 cubes of baby food for his meals lately, so I prepared one cube each of mangoes, blueberries and bananas and mixed it with about 2 tablespoonsful of rice cereal for his lunch yesterday.  He did well, so I kept feeding him, making 2 more cubes of mangoes (with [...]

Nicky’s most recent weight

I forgot to add to the previous post that I weighed Nicky at the doctor’s office on Wednesday – with his diaper on, he was 20 pounds, 2 ounces.

Milk allergy

Nicky is allergic to milk.

When I gave him lunch on Wednesday (an egg yolk and a TINY bit of American cheese), he started getting red around the mouth and breaking out into hives right before my eyes. He wouldn’t stop itching and his face was all red and looked like a hundred [...]

Bad reception in here
