Some news

Well it looks like I haven't posted for a while again. We've been pretty busy. Granny had a heart attack and was in the hospital. We went to see her last weekend (the 14th). They released her the next day and then she was back in again by Monday. That explains the second trip that Liam, Mary and I took on Tuesday.

On Thursday Liam had his 18 month doctor's appointment. Since these are always traumatic for him I decided to take Grover and the camera and take pictures for a "Grover Goes to the Doctor" book. Hopefully that way we can be more prepared for the next visit. The doctor thought this was a great idea. Liam was sort of distracted by Grover and the pictures.

Liam had not gained much weight since his last visit, but the doc said that's normal because at this age they are more active. She asked us about his language development and it's clear that he's way ahead on that. He knows way more than 20 words and can name more than a few body parts.

Today I have a sore throat. Liam is spitting out almost everything he puts in his mouth - even stuff he usually likes. He chews on it OK, but doesn't want to swallow. I think he has a sore throat too.
