March in a Nutshell

So, James is teething (again!!!) and for the life of me I can't imagine which teeth he is getting considering he has all eight of the front ones. All I do know is that we are all worse off for it. Everything enters his mouth, which this month led to: a cold, an ear infection and the stomach flu. It has been a long month. I am glad it is over and that the two teeth on top, at least, have finally broken through. Somewhere in the middle of all of that, James also turned one. I think it was two days after I spent the night throwing up everything I have ever eaten in my life, since James threw up on me three times while he had the stomach flu. He also shared the cold with Jake and myself. Happy Birthday James!

Also, my brother was in a car accident that he was lucky to live through. It broke his pelvis in two places and broke two of his ribs. Please, people, stop at red lights!!! But everyone who has seen his car says he was lucky to be alive at all. Happy Birthday to him too!

Hopefully April will be better...

On a lighter note, I do have the month in pictures too.


This is James with my dad, on the day of his birthday party...
before we knew he had the stomach flu.









Still before, he is looking healthy...










This is after he had thrown up twice,
and lost all interest in the party.
He must have thought this horse was cool
because it was the only thing he left my lap for.











Poor kid didn't even get any cake at his party.












This is him finally sampling the cake.
I still don't think he felt very good.











This is a truck he got for his birthday.
He loves to haul the thing around,
even though it is heavy.











Jake got James two Braves shirts for his birthday.
Here he is sporting one of them.

On a side note, we went to Winger's this day,
and the waitress thought James was a girl.
