Poor Baby!!!

Today Christian had tubes put in his ears. He had 5 ear infections since september and had so much fluid in his ears. To put it in the words of the doctor "a tremendous amount of fluid in both ears". My poor baby must having been feeling icky for a while and we also found out he wasn't hearing well. He has been on so many medications and I hope that this procedure helps. He was such a trooper today. Even though we woke him up at the crack of dawn and I couldn't nurse him, he was in a good mood and played with the toys and the other kids at the hospital. He did have a little bit of a rough time after the surgery but once we got home, he was back to his old self smiling like always! Hooray for no more ear infections... I hope!

Old Macdonald's Farm

Today we took Christian to Old Macdonald's Farm. He got to see a lot of farm animals and he even got to pet some of them. He hung out with some deer, became friends with some goats, took a pony ride, rode on the swings, took a train ride, and definitely had a lot of fun! Here are some the pictures we took and below are two videos of him with the deer and also of him on the pony.
Christian wants to know what bird this is, so do I!

Malloween

I know this is late but the pictures were too cute to pass up. For Halloween we decided to take Christian to the mall to go trick or treating. He enjoyed looking at all the kids dressed in costumes and received a good amount of candy(you already know who ended up eating the candy!) We pulled him around in his wagon dressed as Godzilla. The next day we also took him to a halloween party with our playgroup. All in all, I think Christian had a good first halloween, oh, I mean "Malloween".
