Doctors, pictures and goofy Tarren

I can't believe how fast time is flying! October is already almost over...CRAZY!! This week has been a very eventful week for us. Tarren likes to pull anything over his head and lay very still or he does the opposite and kicks and throws his arms like crazy. It can be a blanket, clothes, towel or even his bib. I got a picture of him doing it the other night.




On Sunday night, I noticed around where Tarren was circumcised was really red and sensitive. So, I took him to the doctor on Monday after school. We got to the office and they had us go back into a room with a nurse who weighed him and then wrote down what was wrong. Well, Tarren weighed in at a whopping 20lbs. The nurse could not get over how chunky he is and how cute he is. She asked to hold him. So, I let her. After a few minutes, she gave him back and said she woudl let me know when another room became available. About two minutes later there was knock on the door, I thought it was the doctor. It was the same nurse and she brought another nurse to show her how cute Tarren was. They left and about two minutes later the same nurse came in and asked me if she could show the rest of the nurses. So, she took him down the hall. She was gone for at least ten minutes. I could hear them talking about how cute he was and one nurse said, "he is to gorgeous to be a boy." I didn't know whether to take that as a compliment or not. Either he is a really cute baby or he looks like a girl? Well, she finally brought him back and then I could go to another room. The doctor saw him and said it was jut really raw and not an infection yet. She prescribed an ointment for just in case. We went home. That night, he got sick with a cold. He was literally choking on snot. I went to the Walgreens and got a vaporizer. I stayed home with him the next day and then on Wednesday...I wasn't feeling too hot. So, I stayed home. My work week was short. I went back to school on Thursday.

I had a volleyball game that day...so I could not miss. Spencer brought Tarren to the game because he was doing much better. He had a bib on that said Hunk and stinker Spencer put a piece of paper with the letter C in front of it so it said...CHUNK. Everyone got a kick out of that. Tarren eventually almost ate the C off of the bib.


On Friday, we had Tarren's 6 month pictures . We had him wear his Halloween costume. He is a monkey. The pictures turned out pretty good. I chose one for a 10x13 and Spencer chose one for some wallets.

I chose this one.


Spencer chose this one. He said it depicted his personality. I do have to admit every time I see it I laugh.

There were a lot of cute ones.
