no one seems to look at this blog anymore.....that's okay...better really because now i can express my true feelings on things, without feeling like i have to censor myself from judgmental eyes......
yeah right.
so, i went to the doc (nurse practitioner to be exact) today for by 15 month well-baby exam. there i got NO SHOTS and was told i am caught up till i am 4 years old!!!! 4 years old! can you believe it! i don't need any more shots till i am a grown up! i am doing well developmentally,both verbally and my motor skills. my head is still in the 90th percentile (just call me q-tip) and i am in the 75th percentile for weight and 60th percentile for height. i can't remember how tall i am, 6 feet maybe, but i know i am 27 pounds and 4 ounces. that is big. i am a BIG BIOY!
the bad news is i have a bad ear infection. so here we go with another 10 days of medicine twice a day. how would we have known about the ear infection if it weren't for the well baby check????? this is very upsetting to mommy. she is always trying to look in my ears, but she can't do it. i don't let her. of course, i don't let the doctor either, mom has to put me in a headlock.
daddy comes home tomorrow and mommy is so excited she is acting like a goof ball. i have nothing of interest to say.

next it's deep fried okra!!!!!
guess what i am eating for breakfast today?! GRITS!!! and i love 'em too! daddy had bought some for mom for her first mother's day down in the South, as a joke and needless to say the box had been sitting there ever since. well,my babysitter, tiffani found them and gave them to me. they were YUMMY. mom apparently didn't think anything of it until (of course--just like her) she looked at the label and saw that they were very high in iron, which for some reason mom is always freaking out about--me getting enough iron.
so i guess it's official----i'm a southern boy now!
oh by the way i forgot to mention the other word/sign mom is teaching me. the word is p-u and the sign is pinching your nose and then making a face while you wave your hand in front of your face. she usually has this lesson during diaper changing time. i think it means "i love changing your diaper" but i am not sure.
i can also say "yum" but it comes out sounding like "mom" i think mom is yum too.
well, time to go to school!
i refuse to say merry christmas or happy holidays because i don't know what it means.

rocks and rhinovirus and no smooth transitions
i like rocks. a lot. i find them everywhere. i often put them in my mouth, but not always, but i hold on to them for dear life before mom takes them away. there are a few in the car that i am fond of. i don't know why i like rocks so much, but i really do. they make me happy.
i am working on the sign for "please" and saying the word "rhinovirus" yes, it's true. and i am very close to getting it, too. tiffani says my rhinovirus sounds a lot like my lasagna. but that is just not true. it's all in the inflection. lasagna counds like lasagna and rhinovirus sounds like rhinovirus.
dada will be home in 3 days. mommy is very very excited. i am a little perplexed, so i will see what happens in 3 days. i know dada is in the pictures and dada is on the phone....but dada here? i am not sure i understand what that means.
i am really into mango these days. mmmm. i ate almost a whole one by myself today. it was goooood.
i also know how to dramatically fake sneeze which cracks mommy up. she has been sneezing a lot, so now i copy her. actually, i am starting to try to copy mommy a lot. it is great fun because mommy gets so excited. i guess she never realized that i was copying her before and now it is more obvious. we all know mom ain't too bright. anyways, i try to copy words she says and sometimes things she does. mommy said she has to stop pointing because now i am starting to do it. i think if anything she should stop swearing--who cares if i point?
mom has finally relented and lets me drink juice. watered down, weak juice but juice nonetheless. i am not sure why. i was fine with water.
i just found out i am going to have a new girl cousin and a new boy cousin. the girl will be auryn and the boy will be cian. i think aunt kendi is buying them from ebay, because she said they will be delivered in march or april. i wonder why she is getting 2. i know mommy bought 2 boxes of cereal because they were buy one get one free. maybe they were having a sale on babies. i don't really know if it is ebay--after all it could be amazon.com or walmart. there aren't any other stores i know about. i am not sure how i would feel if there was a sale when when mommy got me. i don't think i would like having a brother or a sister. maybe i would. i wonder what it would entail? i guess it would probably be okay really, because i would just do what i wanted whenever i wanted anyways. including having mom's "ba"---BOTH of them. just like i do now.
well, i have 2 more teeth coming in. that might not sound like a big deal to you, but at 15 months old (today, thank you very much) you would lthink i would have teethed more than once. i have only had one bout of teething so far--when i was 10 or 11 months and i got 6 all at once. nothing since then. now i am getting 2 for sure and possible 2 more.
tomorrow i am going to school. i really like school and i don't cry anymore when mommy brings me. i like to give kisses to my teachers and they think i am very snart. i mean smart. shut up. now that i am 15 months i am getting a MAJOR attitude in case you can't tell. i even know how to hit. mommy is trying to teach me how to give eskimo kisses instead. mommy says she doesn't hit me so i shouldn't hit her. i don't really see the logic there, but once again, not the sharpest tool in the shed that mom. okay, well, i am done writing now, so goodbye.

i thought this was donovan's blog
things i forgot to mention....we got a new radiator for the huyndai. and a new thermostat, since ours melted. melted. they could't even look at the car for several hours because it was too hot. they gave us a loaner car and the whole thing was covered under warranty. hooray.
today, at the park there were 3 five year old buddies. i know they were 5 because they told me. also, this is a little kid park, so no one over 5 would really like it there. they were talking about the band they were going to start and possible names. it started with "the bloody stoles" (stoles?) and finally they agreed on the "dead skeletons". did i mention they were 5? 2 of them wanted to be called "trent" and the 3rd, who i think was going to be the drummer wanted to be called....i can't remember, but it was blood or bones or dead guy or something. it was very disturbing and creepy. donovan, of course, wanted to follow them around because they were Big Boys. great. my kid's a groupie for the dead skeletons.
it is wonderfully cold here. i bought a $50. pea coat from old navy. and a funky scarf from target. if i had to do it over again, i wouldn't buy a black coat. way too linty. and nect year, perhaps i will splurge for a good quality coat. i love old navy as much as the next guy, but well, there is a reason it was $50.00 i like it tho. i look smart. sharp. together. i can wear pajamas and still look okay if the coat is buttoned.
there was more but i can't remember.

you can take the boy out of l.a. but.....
you know what i just love! bolthouse farms vanilla chai tea with soy protein!!!!!! mommy had some a few weeks ago and gave me a sip just as a goof and i loved it. i actually cried when the bottle was empty. so today, we were up at the walmart (y'just gotta say THE walmart) mom saw a big bottle of it and decided to get it for me. she put it in my sippy cup and i went to town (sher thinks i don't know she cut it with regular milk, but it is still yummy). mmmmm mmmmmm!
unfortunately, we have to go back to stupid old walmart. we went super-duper early since we get up super-duper early anyways to go pick up something we had made with my picture on it. well, they didn't have it and the guy said mommy had to call after 8am to ask about it, when they are open (we were there real early). well, tee hee, it turns out my picture is so cute, they need to actually see the photograph to verify that it is not a professional or copyrighted picture because they are not allowed to use those. mommy said it was just a snap shot and they said we had to come in with the actual picture. of course, mommy was pissed, because we went to the walmart to avoid the crowd and now we have to go back but at the same time...how pissed can you be when something is help up because it is just TOO PERFECT?!?!?!?!?! ah yes. i really should be making money with this lovely mug o mine!
there aren't the crowd issues here in wilmington that used to stress mommy out so much in l.a. EXCEPT at walmart. everybody goes to walmart, all the time. always crowded. i think some people live there.
did i tell you i can say "bye-bye" and i am sort of trying to say lots of words. i just try to imitata things i hear, which thrills mom. if you ask mom, i say about 12 words, but you know how moms are. i don't really say that much. in fact, "bah" mean, bye, ball, boob (as in, please let me nurse), book and "i want to go out". i have several multipurpose words---it's efficient and mommy understands them all. but really, it is just a few words meant to mean perhaps several dozen concepts. so don't listen to ma when she talked bragging about how many things i can say. i am 14 months old. i can't say much. i have recently become fascinated with my diapers however. that is way cooler that talking. god how i hate having my diaper changed. but i love to try to get it before mom can put it in the poopie diaper eating thing.
i went to a play group in the mall today. i will put up a picture later. okay, well, time for more iced chai tea!
