Pleased with Parkside

L went for his 18 month check up today at Parkside where my friend Lauren is a nurse. My 30 pound baby got his shots and a hearing test since he's not a big talker. He passed the test with flying colors (I guess he'll talk when he has something to say). We were real pleased with the time and attention we were given. I am excited to have found this new doctor. Thanks Lauren!

Turner Niles

Matt is a "blood uncle" now. At least that's what he calls it. Matt's younger brother and his wife had their baby boy this week...Turner Niles. He's a doll! Lucas is now the older cousin, 18 months and 1 day to be exact. And Turner will be the older cousin in about 6 months when our new baby is born!

"tick-tock", "ball", "uh-oh", and "mama"

L has had a breakthrough...he's gone from maybe one word (we couldn't tell for sure) to definitely four! I love hearing my son talk to me! I can't wait to hear what he has to say next!
