- Max's 9-month appointment: He's growing beautifully. He weighed in at about 22 pounds and 28 inches. And he's doing all the things he should be doing.
- Mom's jewelry business: After thinking to myself, "Hey, a full-time job, sweet baby boy, hyper-demanding book club and rigorous attempts to lose weight are just not enough to fill my time," I decide to restart my Premier Designs jewelry business. I used to do this in grad school, and had way too much fun. I've been missing my bling and needing to feel extra girly some days. It's been a blast and I'm glad to be back.
- Max in the hospital: On his third ear infection and 5th antibiotic, Max woke up one night with a raging fever and insane projectile vomiting. We took his shivering, grey little self to the ER and he was admitted. After much poking and prodding (including 6 attempts at an IV and 2 LPs), Max was resting comfortably at Bryan LGH where he stayed for 5 days until we could figure out what the deal was. While he was there, he got his ear tubes (yay!) and started feeling much better. It turns out all the badness was caused by an ear infection and an ugly stomach bug, which Josh contracted a few days later. Max was THRILLED to be home. I didn't know babies could get cabin fever.
- The Christmas trip - Josh, Max and I hopped a plane for Chicago just before Nebraska was buried in snow. We missed the worst of it, and spent Christmas with our families, who just doted on the sweet boy and oohed and ahhed at all his fancy new tricks. He can stand up now! Yay! And he loves to clap. You have no idea how much this makes me smile.
Whew. So that's all that's been happening. I resolve to be a more consistent blogger. Will post photos at some point as well.
Happy new year. :)
