Monthly Update
Friday, January 11th, 2008Seems like lately I only post once a month. I need to get better at updating this place. Anyway, let’s see. A lot has happened in the last month. For one, it was the Christmas holidays.
We spent Christmas in FL again with family, even though we hadn’t planned on it. Spur of the moment decision to go down for the 25th, instead of afterwards. But it turned out nice. Amelia got a ton of stuff, of course and it was interesting packing it all in the car. But we did it. I was glad to get the holidays over with. I hate that 8-9 hour drive. VERY MUCH!
Amelia is doing well otherwise. Our major milestone since the last update is that she is finally getting her FIRST TOOTH!!! At 14 months, just like her momma. Yep, she’s a bit behind on getting teeth, but oh well. No wonder she had a bad diaper rash this past week. LOL! She is into everything. She can climb on grandma’s couch, but ours at home is a bit too high for her. She can climb into the tub with assistance and she can climb into her rocking chair. Of course, the little stinker wants to stand up in it as well.
Her ears are doing good so far. Thankfully, and we had one bout of the flu that gave her a very messy ear infection, but she fared it well and the doc said it was more messy than painful.
DH’s cousin (who is due in April) is getting a bunch of our old baby stuff that we no longer need and I’m very glad to get it out of our garage. 
His other cousin is due any day now and we are excitedly waiting for the news.
I’m learning to weave and loom knit. It’s been fun and I have a ton of projects on my plate now. Keeps me busy, as if running after a toddler and working full-time doesn’t keep me busy enough already. LOL! DH got an xBox 360 so he’s been playing it like crazy with his friends online. Ugh! But I’ve played quite a bit as well. It’s something we can do together and while Amelia plays on the floor with her own toys, so it’s a nice way to spend the evening, especially since our favorite shows were on reruns.
So that’s the gist of our month. Maybe next time I’ll update a bit sooner.
