I will admit that I thought since I had a child I would be so good at keeping everyone posted on what is going on in our lives. I then realized that there is hardly any time to breathe between diapers, feedings, cleaning bottles, baths, playtime, sleep, work, laundry, and simply hanging out with my husband for me to keep up this blog.
Here is the latest update of what is going on here at the Vakakes house. James has graduated from the army crawl he picked up at the end of December to tummy off the floor crawling. He is climbing on EVERYTHING. We have had to lower his crib all the way to the bottom. His very first tooth has sprouted and another is soon to join in. He is standing and holding him self up and is trying to make a few steps. He says "DADA" "BYE-BYE" and oh he did say "MAMA" but now only does it when when he is not feeling well- go figure. Which brings me to the fact that he has not been feeling too good lately. We got tubes put in on March 2nd and have had 2 bad ear infections since. We are on our second round of antibiotic treatments, eye drops, and ear drops. He is hardly eating b/c of both the teething and the ear infection. So he has dropped some weight and my little chunky monkey is below 20lbs again. He is feeling alot better today since he got an antibiotic shot in his thigh yesterday morning.
He is using his "pinchers of power" to pick up everything. He does not like baby food anymore and turns his nose up to it. So feeding him has been a challenge for me. What do you feed a baby who hardly has any teeth? Suggestions are welcomed! (I almost insist).
Well, that is it for my Baby James update or atleast the highlights.
