Random bits of information

Below is a picture of some of Daniel's class. 

His girlfriend is not pictured (she was sick this day). Her twin brother is the redhead in a light-blue shirt. 

 The girl who loves Daniel is sitting to his right.  He's just not that into her--

she's cute, but younger, and Daniel likes older women.

Below is a picture of Daniel in his Mickey Mouse Race car. 


He still hasn't completely figured out how to make it go using the button on the steering wheel.  Welles uses the wrong-end of a golf club to push it while he steers Daniel around the basement.

Believe it or not, we are all sick again.  Daniel had a high fever last Saturday, and we took him to the doctor.  I am so thankful and happy that we switched to a practice that sees patients on Saturdays and Sundays!  We learned that Daniel now weighs 26 lbs and 10 ounces.  At his 1 year check up, he was 30 and 3/4 inches tall--10 full inches taller than the day he was born!  So, he is in the 80th percentile for height and 88th percentile for weight. 

Football player?  Not so fast!  There is still an opportunity for him to be a baseball player--

you should see him throw a ball!

Did you know that you can get ear infections after you have had ear tubes placed?  Daniel has had 2 ear infections since his tube procedure in October.  I am glad we had a reprieve of 2 months between the surgery and the 1st infection.  Still, I feel so bad for my little buddy.  He's had a rough start.

Daniel is now eating all foods.  He can eat a grape and spit the peel out--talented kid, I know!  He loves all fruit, all pasta, chicken, beef, ham, fish (tilapia), zuccini, broccoli, cauliflour, cucumber and corn among other things.  He is most happy when he is eating and when he is taking a bath.  He still loves to put his face in the water.  We can't wait for warmer weather and the opportunity to go swimming with him!

We love Daniel and are so thankful to have him in our lives!  What in the world did we do without him?
