Over the weekend I came down with a double ear infection. Sure makes it hard to sleep. All I want to do is lay on Mommy, day and night. It's been tough. With my ears hurting, I have been thrown off balance. I try to walk, but I wobble more than usual. I fell flat on my face on the tile floor the other day and got a little bloody nose. Then the very next day I tumbled and hit my mouth on the seat of a wooden chair. My tooth that was almost ready to poke through? Well, it was quite bloody, but that was enough to make it appear. I saw my pediatrician on Monday and he gave me some yummy medicine to take. Its pink and it tastes like bubble gum. Mommy tells me I am a good girl because I take my medicine, but really I just like the way it tastes.
Towards the middle of the week, I started to feel better and the weather was really nice so mommy and I decided to get out of the house and we took a walk down to the Edmonds beach. Like usual, I napped in the jogging stroller on the way down there. Once there, we got to watch a ferry dock, load and take off. 
Then we walked hand-in-hand in the sand along the water.
Then I got my first taste of SAND. And I mean 'taste.' I picked up a big handful and shoved it right into my mouth before mommy could stop me. Good thing mommy thought to bring my sippy cup with us because I was able to wash out my mouth. Yucky. I will think twice before doing that again. (notice I didn't say I would NEVER do that again...)
