New Wheels!

Finally I can go cruising at the mall and not be embarrassed by my stroller. My parents were actually using a Winnie the pooh walmart special they picked up in Seattle. The thing was so cheap the front wheel wouldn't turn right. Mom and Dad picked up a Maclaren 2008 Quest Sport from bestbuybaby.com (they are an authorized retailer although the website doesn't look like it). For 2008, Maclaren changed the seat belt to a 1 button release, changed the foot brake, changed the wheel hubcaps, and added a strap for easy carrying.

I'm 15 months old now!

Boy a lot has happened to me this past month. I visited my first ER, gave my first hug, and was featured in a slide show on our local paper's website.

Lauren's first trip to the ER

Lauren had a high fever even after visiting the doctor earlier today so we went to the ER. After waiting 3 hrs we finally saw a doctor. Lauren had her first x-rays and IV (seen here).

Update: We finally left the ER at 2am with Lauren's fever down and the same diagnosis as our regular doctor -- a viral infection. However, we were told to alternate between tylenol and motrin every 3 hrs to control the fever better. That seems to be working.

Snip snip

We took Lauren to get her first haircut since she was starting to sport a baby mullet. Here she's watching some TV before her big cut at Snipits.


Some bubbles to help make sure Lauren is looking down.

Dog wanted!

We seriously need to get a dog! I've got better things to do like play with my peeps.
