Good News...as of Friday Milo does not have any ear infections!! Woohoo!! He did wake up this morning with a little cough and running nose. Fingers crossed that he doesn't get another cold because it seems that colds inevitably result in ear infections. Since he doesn't usually give me any signs I am worried I won't know when to take him into the doctor. One of the many things that I was not prepared for in motherhood was my increased level of worry. I had no idea I would be such a worry wart. I am really working on trying to go with the flow, but what can I say I am an engineer. I like structure and schedules. Babies are a lot of thing but structured and scheduled they are not.
Milo is busy working his abs and giggling up a storm these days. You put him on his back and he goes to town on crunches. He so wants to be sitting up and is working really hard at it. After his workouts he generally enjoys a good belly laugh. If he isn't laughing on his own a good tickle usually does to job. He is one ticklish little boy, his back, his neck, his feet, under his chins (note plural) and his sides. We have been so lucky to have our evenings full of baby giggles. I swear there is nothing better!
Today we had a baby shower for my sister and her new arrival, Baby Girl Kennedy. We had it at Janet's, my mother-in-law's. It was a beautiful day full of adorable pink outfits and great company. Miranda is due the first of May and looks fantastic. We can't wait to meet our niece.
One day I may start posting pictures of something other than my little boy, but for now here is more Milo...
Full of smiles!
Check out those cheeks!!!!
Adorable pictures of Milo and glad he doesn't have an ear infection. I love his cheeks.
ReplyDeleteKeep up with the structure and schedules with Milo. I promise it will pay off in the end.
Now that my kids are just a little older they are use to our family structure and schedules that we've used since they were babies so they know what to expect and life just works much smoother.
It may seem pointless at Milo's age now because babies change so often, but you'll see your hard work pay off as he gets older. Kel
