Update from CT

So Ian's ears are still not clear. He's been off the antibiotic since Monday and the drops a few days and yesterday he woke up with gunk in his ears again. The doctor renewed the drops again and we have an appoinment on Tuesday morning with the specialist. I think we might try Debbi and Peter's suggestion and try garlic drops this weekend. Who knows - anything will be good at this point. He doesn't seem to be in pain but he has been shaking his head a lot the past day or so. And he is always so fussy when waking up. I thought about it this morning and he was never really like that. I could always change his diaper before feeding him but now he's screaming his head off and can't wait to nurse. He has slept pretty good the past few nights, 7:30 ish by the time he falls asleep until 5 or 6. This morning was a 5 AM morning - he's back for his two hour after waking nap.

Other Ian developments. Daddy swears that Ian will make kissy noises back at you if you make kissies in the air to him. I haven't seen it. He also likes to roughhouse with Daddy and Mommy has to remind them to not rile up the baby. Eating- Ian is showing a preference for only eating yogurt. He will eat his cereal but much prefers yogurt to ANYTHING else. I'm trying to introduce new things but he just wants yogurt these days. He will hold out for it too. This morning we tried scrambled eggs - he wanted nothing to do with them except to squeeze them in his fingers. Hamburger went over well last weekend when he had a few bites of mine. He likes cheese but just doesn't know how to chew it. Which is surprising with all these teeth. Ian LOVES his new music table. I've got some video to upload of him playing with it. He pulls himself up to it to standing and has figured out how to make some of the toys on it work. He gets a look on his face like he is so proud of himself and can't contain his excitment. Its fun to watch.

We are home today (like usual for a Thursday) and Mommy has tomorrow off but Daddy has to work because they are doing a 4th of July party at the club. Depending on the little guy's ears we may or may not go.
