Hello my little one. This month, you got you first cold. Daddy noticed that you were really congested one evening. That night, you got a fever. We stayed up looking at you and just watching you breathe for about an hour and decided that we would call the pediatrician in the morning. Your fever was lower by then, but your doctor still wanted to look at you and listen to you breathe. I think your cold upset us more than it upset you. Since you breathed easier when sitting up a little, you couldn’t/wouldn’t sleep in your bassinette. You ended up in our bed on your own little mattress that we raised up for you. I think you enjoyed being close to us all night long.
During you sick time, you decided that you would be WIDE awake between 10pm and 1/1:30 am. FANTASTIC. Daddy watched you a few times while mommy passed out from exhaustion.
You had your first Valentines Day and helped Daddy make Mommy breakfast in bed. It was very sweet of you. You looked so cute in the outfit Daddy bought for you to wear.
We celebrated your daddy's 35th birthday. You helped blow out the candles.
You visited Poppie and Grandma’s house for the first time. You got to see the dogs, Fluffy and Jasper. We made sure that they didn’t lick you. You went to the Fishing and Hunting Expo. Poppie had a booth there so we went to see him.
You started smiling this month too, right after Valentines Day. It’s so wonderful to look at you, talk to you, and watch you smile and try to “talk” to us. Your little sounds are some of the most beautiful sounds that we have ever heard.
You also went on your first official walk. We started at the library and walked around Choate. You enjoyed it so much that you just had to sleep during it.
