Allergic reaction

So today we found out that the little one is allergic to Amoxicillin. He has been taking it for last 5 days for an ear infection. This morning when he woke up I noticed 3 large bumps on his check, the looked like big pimples. The first thing that came to mind was oh no Chicken Pox. But as time went on he got more and more and the started turning into welts. So into the doctor we went. Poor guy, hope he gets better soon. Luckily the welts haven't been bothering him, at least for now.

Camping

This last weekend we went camping. We went to Big Basin Redwood State Park, up in the mountains above Santa Cruz. The area had nice campgrounds with lots of BIG Redwood trees. We tried to keep the little one contained to a blanket but he had other things on his mind, like eating dirt and leaves. So we spent most of our time making sure he stayed on the blanket, or in our arms. We had a big rain storm a few days earlier so the ground was pretty wet and muddy.

At night it got a little cold, good thing Mom made him a nice sleeping bag. He loved playing in it.

Learning how to stand

I'm not camera Shy at all...I like seeing my reflection in the big lens!

I like to crawl into new spaces. The enclosure make me feel safe.

I also like to crawl out.....and back in again.

So the last month I have been working on my sitting and standing. I can pull myself up on my knees pretty easy, but getting to my feet is a little harder.

It has gotten a little cold here so can finally where my cool coat Aunt Sandy got me. I gotta say I'm a hunk.

I like the toy that Jamey and Debbie gave me, i pretty much have all the levers and buttons down. And it works great for pulling myself up. I can also use in to hang out and look around at the doggies.

I have been secretly standing in my crib seeing how far over the rail I can hang, (when I'm supposed to be sleeping) but Mom caught me one night and made Dad lower the mattress. I can still stand but no climbing out..... at least for now.
