Doctors and more


It's been a fairly busy week in the Jozwiak household. We started Monday by going to a Mardi Gras playdate at a friend's house in Minneapolis where Oliver got to design his own mask. He was pretty much the only boy there (there was one other but a very young baby) so he was rather out-numbered!! One mum brought beads for all the children and Oliver got very attached to his and still likes to wear them round the house. Jon thinks he looks ready to star in his own rap video!!

Monday afternoon was the dreaded doctor's appt and Oliver acted exactly as I expected. The poor thing cried from beginning to end and when I took his clothes off he was shaking like a leaf :( He got two shots and weighed in this time at 27lbs 11oz and measured just over 34ins in length. So, in the past 3 months he's put on 2 pounds and grown an inch! He is still on the 95th line for his height and the 75th for his weight so he's doing really well.

Tuesday was my birthday and Oliver spent the morning being crabby - great!! But he cheered up a bit in the afternoon and we went to Caribou to get my free birthday coffee. Oliver had fun playing with the toys there and drawing on the chalkboard. In the evening he went and spent some time with Grandpa while Jon and I went out for dinner.

Wednesday morning we went to St Louis Park rec centre where they have a toddler drop-in every week. Mikayla and Matt and regular visitors there so we got to see them both as well. Mikayla was a social butterfly wandering round the place while Oliver was his usual somewhat clingy self with me!! But it was a fun place and we'll probably be back.

On Thursday we had a nice snowstorm. I think we got about 4ins of snow here but in other places they got nearer 8! It's now nice and cold again but at least the sun is out.

Today is Mikayla's first birthday party so we are off to that and Granny Colleen is in town for the week so we should have a fun few days coming up. Jon is off work as well - yey :))) Sorry I don't have many pics this time but still a couple for you. I'll try and make up for it this week!
