Life with He-man...

Well, we've had an eventful last week! Last, Thursday we had dinner with friends then headed to Berry to see the baseball team in the opening round of the playoffs. Berry won and earned their first trip, ever, to the NAIA World Series! AG wore his Berry onesie proudly. Friday, we had family come to town to celebrate cousin Stephanie's graduation. After the ceremony everyone came back to our house for food and fellowship. We took a picture with Clint and AG together. I found this humorous because AG looked so little next to Clint! (The picture doesn't show you how tall Clint is and how little AG is. 6' 6'' and 2' 2'' respectively.)

Later in the weekend AG came down with his first cold. We were fortunate that it did not prevent him from having surgery on Wednesday. We spent Tuesday night at GiGi and Granddad's so that we could get to Scottish Rite on time the next morning. On our way down we were able to see the Fullers at Will's baseball game vs. Cartersville. They enjoyed meeting AG for the first time. We got to Gwinnett late and slept very little. AG was really cranky before surgery because he didn't feel good. He did great and everyone was wonderful at the surgery center! They loved taking care of the little He-man. Afterwards we stopped by to see our friends Daniel and Amanda Lomax at their Chick-fil-A for breakfast before heading home to Rome. AG's arm is looking better and we are hoping this was his last treatment. We'll know in a few weeks if he'll need another one or not.

Friday, we met AG's cousin Ronnie J in Calhoun for lunch at the Cracker Barrel. Ronnie and AG are both getting so big. We enjoyed catching up and talking about how much fun the holidays are going to be this year with the two munchkins running around. They both enjoyed staring at each other from across the table. After lunch we headed to the outlets to pick up some new clothes for AG. He continues to grow like a weed! On Wednesday they weighed him before surgery and he was 16.28lbs. We also needed to get him a couple of swim suits for the beach. We decided to try AG in his stroller for the first time without his car seat. He did great and loved being able to watch everything.

After a rough night last night we decided to take AG to Immediate Care today. (This is the office that is open when we can't be seen at the pediatricians.) We were concerned that his cold might have developed in to an ear infection. I'm glad that we went because poor little guy did have ear infections. Needless to say we will be glad when AG is recovered from everything! Life is not fun when you have a sick child. We haven't had a whole lot of sleep the last few days. Hopefully, this next week will be better!

Lastly, AG's friend Hannah Caroline Withers was born yesterday morning! We are looking forward to seeing the Withers family in 3 weeks when we head to Florida for our family vacation. The last time AG and Hannah Caroline "saw" each other was New Years. (See below) This coming New Years will be even better now that they are both here!
