It's been a month since our last contribution and I apologize for the silence. The past month has seen some joyful times and unfortunately some very very sad times as well.
When last we met the Little M. was gearing up for a trip to the left coast to see her Aunt Cali, finally get married off. The trip was not without it's pitfalls. 3 hour delay in Newarc, time changes for someone who doesn't know what time is and of course close quarters combat in a plane with an 11 month old.
All that aside however the trip was a success and we were happy to be with family and celebrate my sister and new brother in-laws nuptials. We wish them much love.
The little M. enjoyed the wedding so much in fact that she fell asleep on the dance floor to AC/DCEE and was mystified by the string quartet. Who knew?
Now she is one. On Oct. 16 she made the big leap out of fractions and into whole numbers. She is not as I imagined ready to rake leaves yet, though she does try to eat them.
Her one tooth that poked through without a whimper was followed immediately by three more that did more than whimper. Oh the poor little m. She is taking her lumps early.
She gets her helmet off in a week which is wonderful but due to her newest double ear infection, she needs to have tubes put into her ears. Surgery for such a little creature. My hope is that we are getting all the colds, infections deformities etc. out of the way and she will come through stronger in the long run. Alas, what else can you hope for?
She still remains impossible cute and a continued joy in our lives. More on the continued saga of the Littlest M. soon.

I love the helmet pics, esp when it's all crooked.
Congrats on the press you got on the calendar.
