A week with Gran & Uncle Shane
Gran and Uncle Shane came for the week this week to help me with you and Lukasz. Gran spent a lot of time cuddling with Lukasz so we could ease you into him being here so you wouldn't feel suddenly left out or jealous. And I think it worked. You've been nothing but very loving to him.
We went for walks--it's incredible how much longer it takes to get ready when there are 2 kids to dress and get out the door! Lukasz fit nicely in the Snugli, which will be good for when I go for walks with you and him. I can hold your hand or push your stroller easily with him strapped to my chest.
Blowing kisses to mom in the park:
Having fun on the playground with Uncle Shane:
Unfortunately you got sick this week, and were feeling pretty badly.
We took you to the doctor but after taking urine and blood tests, they figured it was just a virus and we just had to let it run it's course. But it was pretty scary when your fever went up to 40.1C. You've never been this sick before. :( We were at the doctor all day, so you missed your regular nap time. When we got home, you and I were both pretty tired (photo by Uncle Shane):
With the extra help around, we had time for this:
You love your big puppy:
And you swiped Lukasz's teddy pretty quick:

Another walk in the park
We are so lucky to have such a big, beautiful park so close to our home. This is where you and I walk one or two times a day. There's always lots to explore!
Wow! Throwing leaves.

Your first birthday party!: at the park
I'd planned a big birthday party for you, but it didn't quite work out as I planned, so we just had a smaller-scale party with Gran, Uncle Derek and Uncle Shane. The weather was cool for this time of year, so you didn't get to go swimming like I'd planned, but we did spend a lot of time at the park, working up an appetite.
and again,
and again,
and then Gran joined in on the fun!
You showed Uncle Shane how to ride the tractor,
and he gave it a try, too!
You found a special seat where only you can fit:
And told everyone how it is from your perch:
Then it was time to go home for dinner, cake and presents!!
You went down the slide (you figured out months ago how to stay sitting up on your own as you slide):
