Savannah, that's awesome news about Nicholas! YOu must be thrilled!
Bendmom, congrats on the talkshow spot.
Andrew has also not been sick yet, and he'll be 7mos next week. Frankly, I'm amazed because I've been sick twice and dh had a really bad flu, but DS has missed all of them. ARen't babies supposed to get 3 - 6 cold / flus in their first 2 yrs?
We went and bought another car seat that is easier to buckle and more comfy today. It meant driving 1 hr into Prince Albert, though, which was a bit of an arduous journey becuase I made it with ds myself. The only thing that calms him down in the car when he's fussy is "patty cake" or "this little piggy", so on the way in I went through the entire alphabet of names with "pattycake" and the little piggies went to every town we passed. Fortunately he slept onthe way back.
We've also had relatively gorgeous weather -- in the 50's. The snow is melting and you can see grass (brown grass, but still grass). I took Ds out in the stroller twice this week, although after a winter of lethargy I'm not up to jogging quite yet. I just hope the snow melts in the park soon so we don't have to leave the stroller on the edge and trek through it to get to the swings.
