At the beginning of the week. I went for a little vacation. Mom, dad and I left for St. Louis Sunday afternoon and didn't come home until Wednesday evening. We had to go up to St Louis for some of my doctor appointments. All of my appointments went well. I had a followup hearing test done. And of course I passed that test. And then on Wednesday I had two more appointments to go too. I saw neurology and they just wanted to know how I am doing and how I am doing developmentally. And of course I showed off a little for them by holding my head up for a little bit. And then while we were up there mom and dad decided to do some Christmas shopping. That was too exhausting for me, but I behaved very well though. I even got my picture taken with Santa. I wasn't too excited to see Santa so of course I didn't smile but I also didn't cry like all the other kids did that were in line. And then of course since we were in St Louis I had to see my Aunt Jen and Uncle Jason. Of course she had to spoil me a little bit. We got a lot of Christmas presents, some for me and some for others. I even got a sneak peek at some of them.
Exhausted
I also got to go swimming for the first time. I wasn't too sure about the pool. It was a little cold. But I really liked to hot tub. I floated and kicked my feet. But that was short lived because then about 10 girls came in and made a lot of noise and splashed everywhere, and I didn't like that at all.
Splash, splash, splash!!!
Look! I'm floating all by myself!!
I had so much fun spending time with all of my family...grandmas and grandpa, uncles and aunts, and especially my cousins.
But I sure am glad that the holiday is over, because I am exhausted. It wore me out so much that I can't even sleep through the night anymore. My schedule is all out of whack.

If you think you can leave me on the couch anymore and walk away...you better think twice. I thought I would be a little daredevil the other night. My mom was at work and dad was at home with me. We were playing and all but then he had to get some homework done. So he left me on the couch propped up on a pillow and gave me some toys to play with while he worked on the computer right next to the couch. It was working out pretty good, dad would talk to me and I was playing but then I decided to squirm around a little. And well I got a little close to the edge and was hanging over going head first. Dad saw me in time but it was a close call. Two more seconds and I would of had a bump on my noggin. I thought it was kind of fun, I had a smile on my face the whole time. So you better watch out, I am getting a little more mobile these days.
