New Ears!


We haven't had many happy kid photos to post because it seems every weekend for months, Sutton has been sick and Hana has been hiding. Super loud March thunderstorms cause strange behavior out our house...
Somebody please buy me a thundershirt!


And then there is the issue of mud. With the rain comes soggy trails and we bring alot of mud home from our runs. This is an issue for me under normal circumstances because I am somewhat OCD. But while our house is on the market, it becomes somewhat of a larger issue.

We ventured out of our El Rodeo comfort zone to hit up Red Robin recently. Sutton ate green beans and proceeded to bang a rattle loudly on the table for a solid ten minutes. It was great, I kept peering around at all the other tables expecting evil stares but nobody cared! YUM!
This is so fun!


The day before Sutton's tube surgery he was home with 103 degree fever. He is not your average sick kiddo. No cuddling in the rocking chair for him. He likes to be outside, preferably moving at a decent clip. So we've put in some miles on the deck and in the yard. As you can see he has a new toy that went everywhere with him that day.
Thanks Dad, I love my strap!


Our little dude is obsessed with straps. Straps on his carseat, on the jogging stroller, on his high chair, on the umbrella stroller, my race belt, etc. So this 5 inch strip of webbing that Walker gave him and has become his most prized possession to date.


Despite the fact that he had an ear infection the day of, Sutton's surgery went well. The tubes should stay in for 6 months to 2 years and we are hopeful they will kick our ear infection cycle. With new ears he seems to hear a great deal more and he is sooo much happier.


He is still an incredibly content baby just sitting. He has absolutely zero desire to crawl, roll, or scoot anywhere. We had our first play date in the park with friends today and the boy loves to swing!
Friends!
