Week 22

Last week, Amelia started laughing a bit more frequently, so that was fun. I'll have to pressure Chris to offload some stuff off the video camera, because we got it on video! :)


On Friday night, we went down to First Friday. We didn't stay long, because of her bedtime schedule, but I think she enjoyed the sights and hearing people fuss over her wherever we went.


On Saturday, we did our usual walk downtown for the Farmer's Market (not many left!). Then, Amelia and I went and had lunch with my friend Katrina, and her 4 year old son, Ryan. Ryan was a bit in love with Amelia. He kept calling her "pretty" and loved making her laugh! And she kept making eyes at him, too, so you never know.... 20 years from now...? :)



On Sunday, Amelia woke up with the cold that I mentioned yesterday. She had snifflies for a few days, but this was a full-blown cold. What a way to spend her 5 month birthday! But she did her best to be happy despite, and loved playing with the 5-month present that she picked out for herself a few days before:



Look at those little pink cheeks. She was so sad to be sick yesterday.

She was so (unusually) cuddly yesterday. The only way we could get her to nap was to hold her, and it was the only way that should would go to bed (for good) last night. Napping on Mommy:


This morning I took her to her Pediatrician, because I was worried that she kept rubbing one of her ears (which can be a sign of an ear infection). It wasn't infected, but had a lot of gunk that she cleaned out. Dr. K just prescribed tylenol, lots of cuddling, and our best attempt at giving her a good night's sleep. She said that the congestion would bother her until it went away, but there's nothing we can do.

And of course, her 22 week birthday shot! She's wearing pj's, because isn't that what we all want to wear when we're sick? Look at her being happy..... she's trying her best. :)
