My dad makes me laugh
Oh my gosh. My dad is so funny.
Today he started saying "Go Bears!" over and over again. And every time he said it, it made me laugh.
And then my laughing made him laugh!
Luckily, Mom had the video camera rolling.

My first laughs
This week I started laughing. First a light, breathy ha-ha, and later a belly chuckle. It makes mom & dad laugh, too.

New Stats!
Sawyer had his 2-month checkup with Dr. Gerwein this week. Everything looks great. He had his first shots, which did NOT go over well.
He screamed immediately, and his entire head turned bright red with anger. After about 10 seconds (or 30, depending on which one of us you ask), the screaming subsided. The pain wasn't long lasting, so a quick bout of nursing made him forget. But we knew that one of the shots was tetanus, and we knew (from recent personal experience) that a tetanus shot hurts more later on than it did originally.
He went home and took a nap...and when he woke up, he screamed. And screamed. AND SCREAMED. We did everything we could, finally giving him a few drops of Tylenol. Wow -- it's hard to see your kid in pain!
His stats at 2 months:
23.5" long (75th percentile) (he's grown 2 inches since birth)
12 lbs., 6 oz. (74th percentile) (he's added 2 pounds, 13 ounces since birth)
40cm head (60th percentile)

Get Yer Sawyer Pics Here!
Because some folks have been asking...here's the latest batch of Sawyer photos!
Sledding in Tahoe
We went spent New Year's week in Truckee with the Cirulis and the Weigels.
Sure, there were the normal problems--kids fighting over the top bunk, and the traditional Weigelette barfathon.
But there were highlights, too: we discovered Dave's cross-dressing side, and Dave and Greg made an awesome sled run on Friday! Here's the video.
By the way, YouTube caught me trying to use some copyrighted music in the background (sorry, Kool and the Gang). So this version has no music. Check my Facebook videos for the original.
Hmmm, can I embed a Facebook video here?
