1 and Done

Hi all,

It's been a busy few months.  Michael turned 1 on 3/10 and we had a really nice party with lots of friends and family present.  Unfortunately, it was the same day Michael came down with another ear infection...his 5th in a row since December, so he was not the happiest guy on the big day.  Lauren managed to open Michael's presents while he napped and the other kids joined in.  It was very nice and we just wished he felt better so he could dig into his cake.

He just had ear tubes put in on the 20th and Michael is a different baby.  He is MUCH more vocal, sleeps on his back again, and is back to drinking more liquids!  He talks in a string of Michael Words that we don't understand but you can tell he's trying to make a statement.  He finally has his top two teeth along with the bottom two, and I'm sure the others are soon to come.  Michael is also starting to fight back when playing with Lauren.  It's fun to watch, but of course we hope they just decide to love each other and get along. :)  He LOVES to play in the sink and when you take him away he screams. He loves the swingset, and he loves baths.  When we get upstairs he crawls straight to the bathroom and if I'm not planning on giving him a bath he cries.  So, I give in and give the bath just so he can play in the water.  You should see him with the leg up trying to climb in.  It's really cute.

xo,
jackie
