An Intro from Mom

On May 12, 2007 closed in the privacy of my bathroom I found out I was pregnant. The weight of knowledge that my life (and most likely my body) would never be the same was overwhelming. I was excited and scared all rolled into one (and still am!)

Thacker will do his best to share with you his adventures. Enjoy!

My One Year Stats


Hi! I had my one year check up today and received a clean bill of health. I weigh 20 lbs 10 oz and stretch out to 29 3/4" tall. My head is 18 3/4" in circumference and my heart rate is 106 beats per minute.If I'm so healthy, why did they torture me with four needles today? I got three shots in my legs and one needle prick on my thumb. Mom brings sugar water to dip a pacifier and pop in my mouth right before I get the shots - SWEET! - so the deal is not all sour.

We've had a busy couple of weeks and needed a little recoup time from the birthday/holiday blitz. To divulge the whole truth, I've been a little under the weather. I got a cold on Sunday, Dec 28 and rang in the new year with my very own little inhaler to keep my lungs clear. I also had the start of my first ear infection. Mom helped me thwart off antibiotics with oral homeopathic drops, chicken noodle soup, and 2-3 drops of olive oil in my ear each night before bed. I'm good to go and ear wax free!

I'll catch you up on some of the holiday details soon! Gotta go get some shut eye.
