Mommy and me

We had a not-so-fun week in our house this week! On Monday night, my mommy and I went to eat with Uncle Mark and Aunt Christy, but then later mommy's stomach started hurting. By the next morning her back was also hurting and she asked my daddy not to go to work because she thought she needed to go to the doctor. My sweet Aunt Kennette (and Holden and Hannah) came to stay with me so daddy could take her and guess what...she had stones in her kidney. She told me she'd had them two times before I was born, but this time they were in both kidneys and were really big. She has to have surgery on Monday to break them up and that makes me sad!

Know what else makes me sad? Being sick makes me sad and I was sick this week. On Friday Mommy got me up from my morning nap and I was running a fever of 101.8. I was also fussy and fitful, so she took me to see Dr. Nechyba who tested me for the flu and RSV. Both were negative and my ears were clear, so he said he thought it was a virus. I felt very bad all day and night on Friday and most of the day today, but tonight I'm feeling better. My Nana C came to visit this weekend so she could keep me while Mommy and Daddy are at the hospital on Monday. Hopefully next week will be better for us.

A good weekend


I had a great weekend. I got to hang out with my Mamaw and Papaw who brought me a cool stuffed Horton and a quilted bib with my name on it. I also got to watch basketball with my family. Lots of basketball. There have been some very good games and some of them were even played on the Wolfpack's floor! Mommy says at least something with the NC State logo made it into the tournament.

This morning the funniest thing happened...the Easter Bunny came to see me. Imagine that, a rabbit in our house! He left me a basket with books, new shoes and a toy photo alblum in it. Mommy and Daddy says the Easter Bunny likes to bring candy to kids, but I'm still too little. I hope everyone had a good Easter. Love you all!

Dogs Are Funny


I live with two doggies named Bailey and Cooper. They make me laugh and laugh. I really love it when Bailey chases his tail.

This week, I've decided I have a lot to tell everyone, so I've been talking a lot. I don't think the grown ups understand what I'm saying, but I'm sure they'll learn.

I've also taught my mom and dad to stick out their tongue. Every time I stick my tongue out, they laugh and do it back to me.

This is a good week for seeing grandparents. My Nana C was here last weekend, I went to Nana B and Granddaddy's house on Tuesday, and this weekend Papaw George and Mamaw Jean are coming over. I sure do miss my Papaw Glenn though. I can't wait to see him again. He calls me on the phone and I smile really big at him, but I don't think he can see it.

My first ACC Tournament and more


This weekend I got to watch my first ever ACC tournament. My daddy took Thursday and Friday off from work and stayed home with Mommy and me to watch basketball. The silly old Wolfpack lost their first game, but Mommy and Daddy were happy this miserable season was finally over. On Friday Aunt Kennette, Uncle Nealson, Hannah, Holden, Eric, Kristin, Zachary and Ashley came over to watch the games and eat with us. Daddy smoked some ribs and everyone brought something else to eat. It was very fun.

Nana C also came for a visit this weekend. Saturday night we got to pick up Aunt Christy and Uncle Mark from the airport. It was my first visit inside a real live airport. Christy was so happy when she saw me, I thought she was going to cry. I was happy to see her too and she promises never to leave me for 17 days ever again.

Yesterday we went to lunch at the Twisted Fork before Nana left to go home. I didn't sleep very well last night because I got my mommy's cold. Mommy said she coughed most of the night and I coughed most of the day today. Mommy feels better tonight, so hopefully I'll be better soon. I hope I'm better by the weekend. Papaw George and Mamaw Jean are coming for a visit. Yeah! But first, I'll get to see Nana B and Granddaddy when we go to their house tomorrow night for dinner for my mommy's birthday.

I sure hope this post makes my Aunt Becky happy!!!

I Miss My Aunt Christy


Aunt Christy and Uncle Mark have been gone for more than a week now, and I sure do miss them. I can't wait until this Saturday when they come back from Italy. My Nana C is coming to visit this weekend too, and we're all going to the airport together to get them. I'm so excited!

This week I learned to grab my toys and put them in my mouth, and I've been trying so hard to sit up, but I can't quite get it. I also got to visit a lot of people. On Tuesday I ate lunch with my Aunt Kennette and Holden and Hannah. Then on Wednesday I ate lunch and went shopping with my daddy. Friday we ate dinner with Aunt Kennette, Uncle Nealson, Holden, and Hannah (what a treat to see them twice in one week!) and then saw Nana and Grandaddy at their house later that night. Sunday we rode to Wilmington to see Uncle Scott and Aunt Brandi and my cousins at their new house for Scott Alan's birthday.

Speaking of birthdays, my mommy's birthday is tomorrow. She said she's going to be 29 again. I didn't think birthday's worked like that, but I guess she knows better than me. Daddy got her a Wii for her birthday, and we love to play with that. It makes Mommy and Daddy move around a lot and it puts lots of pretty colors on the TV. Mommy is sad that she doesn't get to spend her birthday with Aunt Christy though. I'll have to try to cheer her up instead.

Game Day


I've had one great week! As if putting myself to sleep every night this week wasn't exciting enough, on Wednesday Aunt Becky and Elizabeth came over to play with me. I had so much fun but I kept Elizabeth awake during her nap time. After a couple of hours at home, we went to the mall for lunch. Elizabeth didn't like her mommy holding me, but I was very happy in her arms. That night I went to my first ever Wolfpack game. I was a good boy and didn't get fussy until about 5 minutes left. The Wolfpack lost, but I thought it was neat to be at a game.

On Thursday, I went with mommy to take Aunt Christy and Uncle Mark to the airport. They are going to have such fun in Italy, but I'm going to miss them. As Uncle Mark closed the car door he told my mommy to take care of his house and take care of his baby...that's me!!! I guess they're going to miss me, too. Just in case they do, I got my Aunt Christy a keychain digital picture frame with 58 pictures of me on it for her birthday. That way, she can look at me anytime while she's away.

Yesterday we went to get Mommy's allergy shots and took daddy to pick up some lunch since he had a noon conference call. Last night I went with Mommy and Daddy to visit their good friends, the Brandows. Mr. Brent and Mrs. Ashley have a 2 year old, Bryce, and they have a one week old named Chase. It was strange to see how small Chase was and to know not too long ago I was that little. Mommy and Daddy sure had a good time talking to adults and I had a good time hanging out with the kids.

Today is game day again and I am going to the game with only my daddy. Mommy has to go get her hair cut. I'm very excited about going to another game and Daddy says I'll get to see Coach K get his 800th win. Here's a picture of me and my daddy getting ready to go. I hope you all have a good weekend!
