Little man is 17 months and doing well after surgery

Here are some pics of CWH playing in sand at his BeBe's house. It's been an exciting time for him this month. He started at the UT Child Development Center June 1, and as expected, the first few days were a transition for both of us. He's adjusted quite well. It's been almost a month and no illnesses. They have fun activites like splash time and popsicles. However, we surely appreciate all the love and kindness that his previous sitter showed him before he went off to "school". We do hope to keep in touch!

CWH spent three nights at his BeBe and PopPop's house while Steve and I went on vacation. It was our SEVEN year anniversary, can you believe!? We had a lovely time at La Canterra in San Antonio. CWH apparently didn't miss us too much, and even slept good away from home, which is unusual. He even had a play date.

CWH had surgery on Friday (June 26) for bilateral inguinal hernia and hydrocele repair. We were headed home after the 8:15 am operation by 9:10 in the morning! CWH did great, although we were all quite anxious to have it over with. He was chasing the cat after about an hour of being home.

New words that I can think of off the top of my head - apple, happy, abby (abby cadaby on sesame street? dunno.) He likes to play peek a boo, and sometimes uses his feet for peek a boo when in the car. He will sort of slap your face and laugh, which, of course, is not funny. He has learned to pull the cat's tail, and takes his Lighting McQueen car all over the house. He can work chunky puzzles. Still a picky eater, but favorites are chicken rings, oatmeal, cheese, and he likes to suck the juice out of apples and spit out the rest. He now takes one long nap after lunch. Not sure how long he would sleep, because we wake him after it's been three hours!

That's enough for now!
