Bring on the warm weather.....

We've had an exciting week. Our highest temperature yet was taken, coming in at 103.1 degrees. That prompted a trip to the doctor's office and the result......add a double ear infection to the pneumonia we are fighting! I guess our pediatrician decided we weren't messing around anymore; Griffin is on so much medicine (including breathing treatments for the first time) that he is wound for sound! It's nearly impossible to get him to take a nap. He would rather work up a sweat jumping in the exersaucer/screaming/breathing fast/shaking when grabbing something. I'm blaming it on the steroids. We have a follow up tomorrow morning. 


Tooth #2 is coming in and about to catch up with #1. This is my best attempt at a photo of them both:

Griffin has also decided he needs to try to stand up at all times. I caught him standing in his crib one day when he was supposed to be taking a nap. It's no longer safe to put him in the crib and expect him to lay there. When he is quiet he is plotting and planning a way out, or at least a way to get up and then slip and fall hitting his face somewhere on the way down.

Hold still Aunt Tammy, I'm trying to stand up

He is also learning how to make the kiss sound. Or picking up on it I guess, since I haven't really tried to teach him. I guess he just hears it so much that he's figured out how to do it himself. It's quite funny to get in these "kissing wars" with him where you take turns making the sound. 

It seems there is always something new and exciting happening!
