Will is doing great! He got his Synagis shot a couple days ago, I think he kicked unexpectedly because he has a scratch where he got it. He's figured out how to get on his elbows and knees and rock, and last night he crawled about two feet for Justin (which I missed) so full-blown crawling can't be far away. He's also figured out how to get his feet under him then sticks his rear up in the air, we call this the stink bug butt. He's moved to a convertable car seat as he outgrew the infant seat, and he's going to the pediatrician on Thursday. Doing better on solid foods, still rejecting the spoon but he'll take a 4 oz cereal and breastmilk feeding from a Nuby solid feeder sippy cup, and occasionally will put up with me putting baby food in there too.

Some drama with me, I had another pain attack on Wednesday and ended up incapacitated on the bathroom floor, where my father-in-law found me and got Justin who called 911. I got an ambulance ride to the hospital. I had my gallbladder removed last summer but apparently I've either managed to make another stone or they missed some small stuff which is causing problems. The worst of the pain went away but it's still hurting and I'm queasy. Consulting with a surgeon on Monday to see what they'd like to do about it. Concerned about Will's milk supply in the meantime, Murphy's Law applies - I sent off a cooler of the entire frozen stash of breastmilk I had to the milk bank about 2 hours before I had the attack and now my supply is down so I'm not making surplus anymore. Hoping it will come back but I may end up needing to supplement with formula.

Our car has been fixed and is out of the shop. I also have a new nephew,YEAH! My oldest sister Gloria had an 8 lb 3 oz baby boy on the 18th, JT. Guess that's about it, enjoy the new pics! I think the one of Will sleeping nude on the changing table is funny, he dozed off an hour before bed time so I went through the usual bedtime routine hoping he'd wake up, he slept through getting him ready for the bath, but the bath woke him up. Funny kid! You can see the shot scratch on his thigh in that one.
