Beginning of December 2007

Hi everyone
Mom has lost count of the weeks and now that she is back to work full time, she has less time to update the blog. But since the last update, lots has happened.

I went to the doctor for my 4-month appointment. All looks good. I had shots but my mom had the decency not to take photos.

We also went to Tio Renan's 60th birthday party in Livermore. I stayed up very late and refused to sleep. Who can sleep with a party going on? I might miss something.
Here I am with Tia Hannah (Daniela's mom)

and with Tia Vivi and Praveen:
The next day I went to Jen and Adrian's home for lunch. I had never met them before. But I really like them. That Adrian talks funny and for some reason it was always about Australia...did you know that Australia has a new Prime Minister? and he signed the Kyoto Protocol? And that the singer of Midnight Oil is in the Australian Senate. Adrian was very excited about all of this.

I also had a great time playing with my rattle while thereHey it the Mom-erazzi again
Mom, do you have to dress me like this? It is embarrassing
I also spent a week with Gran while Mom worked. Grandpa stuck around for a few days. Gran and I had such a good time that we didn't have time to take pictures. I'll be spending this week with her as well. Hopefully it will be documented in photographs....unless we get too busy.

That weekend, we then went up to Gran's and Grandpa's place. The Great Grandma, and the Great Aunts and Uncles came up as well.

Here I am with Great Aunt Lynn. We are opening my Christmas gift as I won't be with her for Christmas.
Here I am with Great Grandma. I really love her
And here is Great Aunt Sandy
After my bath:
This last week I spent it at the AGU Fall Meeting (American Geophysical Union) in San Francisco with my mom. I charmed everyone there. Mom took me to the poster sessions where there was lots to see. I almost didn't sleep at all, except for in this photo with Gannet (whom I met when I was 1 week old) and Shelley (who sent me my super-cool WB-57 onesie).
My mom also had to put me in the AGU daycare so that she could go to some talks. It was my first time in Day Care or being watched by someone who isn't family. I did really well. I behaved and didn't cry at all...same can't be said for my mother. I'll be starting Daycare full time next month so she better toughen up.

I will try to do one more update before the holidays. Until then
