Scar revealed

Finally, the steri-strips fell off today.

The curve at the top & bottom is proof that it was indeed the cross shape.

Hanging tough with my camo & scar!

Snow Day

Watching the snow fall yesterday

He liked walking around much more than sitting in the snow!

All BOY...

CARS

DRUMS

BALLS

Michael repeatedly picked the ball up,

lifted it,

got up on one knee, and

bounced it!

The one-knee kneel has been a frequent position.

Recent pictures

I realized after looking back at the pictures that he "picked" his nose, 

then put his finger in his mouth! How do kids learn these gross habits?

Michael loves to wave hi/bye & blow kisses!

Michael's favorite book

Who would have thought that taking books out of the basket 

was so entertaining? Michael was occupied for a solid 20 minutes! 

He was determined to get this heavier book out!

Playing hard

"Bye!"

First ER visit

We wish it were his last visit, but he's a boy so that's inevitable! It was definitely a scary experience for us probably more than it was for Michael.  

Michael was crawling on the hard wood floor with slippery pajamas on when his legs slipped out from under him and his face landed on a shape sorter piece  He ended up getting Dermabond, a type of glue, instead of stitches to close up his 1-inch gash.  He was a tough little boy through it all!

This is the shape that did the damage...

Cheers!

We're in trouble...

Batter up!

Checking his grip...
