June 2012

The month of June was a little rough for Amelia.  It started out ok with her birthday but kinda fell apart after that.  

Her tubes fell out of her ears at the beginning of the month.  She had surgery to replace them but still ended up with the worst ear infection yet.  Typically with her ear infections, she'd act normal but would spike a fever.  This one was horrible.  She was miserable for several days.  She was lethargic, had high fevers and was just not happy.  They finally figured out the right medicine to get rid of the infection and we finally had our happy baby back!

She also had her check up with the doctor in Omaha for her belly button hernia.  Basically, nothing has changed with the hernia and she will eventually need to have surgery to repair it. After 3 ear surgeries, we were glad to be able to postpone it!

Here's a June recap in pictures....

This is how Amelia prefers to watch Sesame Street. Naked and standing as close as she can get to the TV.

She loves her pots and pans that Grandma and Grandpa Pool got her for her birthday!

She has already figured out the doggie door.  If she'd only teach Patton, we'd be in business.

She worked really hard on improving her balance and standing.

She loves to spend time with her daddy and

her doggie.

She's weird.

There's nothing funnier than running into Patton.

We were able to get pig tails in her hair for the first time!

Amelia also attended Jazz in June for the second time (we went last year when she was less than a month old)!  This time, Jessy and Twila joined us and we had a great time.

It wouldn't be Jazz in June without UNL Dairy Store ice cream!
