Also, I have been getting to know my toys. I have chosen a favorite already. His name is Bard and he is a dinosaur rattle. He sleeps with me and even went to Sams Club in my carseat tonight. I also learned the joys of shopping in bulk and driving home in a near blizzard, but I knew we'd be alright because Bard was at my side. Here is a picture of me and my new friend Bard.
On Thursday, mommy and daddy are taking me to meet a new friend named Ben. Ben is a baby too and he has had many challenges in his life. You can read about him at http://randallfam.livejournal.com Daddy went to school at Univ of Michigan and met Ben's daddy Scott. Scott and daddy also work together. I'm excited to meet them and plan on taking lots of pictures of Ben and me.
Our next appointment at the Univ of Michigan is Feb 8th. We're gearing up for the long appointment. Mommy will bring plenty of bottles this time. Last time we were there for almost 5 hours and mommy didn't plan well. I was starving before we got home.
We're also looking forward for more visitors. We have the whole month of Feb to ourselves so far. The first weekend of March, Grandma Kris, Deb Millwright and her girls, Emily and Kayla, are coming. The second weekend of March, Grandma and Grandpa Otteman, Uncle Josh and my soon to be Aunt Maria (they're getting married in June) will be visiting too. Grandpa Larson is already planning a return trip in late March.
It's good to read all of your wonderful comments. I enjoy them immensely. Until next time. So long.
