This week we went to the Doctor: Dad and I took Duke to the doctor on Monday, Daddy went to the doctor on Tuesday and brought me along, on Wednesday I went to see the doctor to get more shots, and on Thursday we took Daddy's car back to the car doctor to get the muffler operated on again.

I'm tired of seeing doctors.

Me and my Daddy - we were getting ready to take Duke for a walk.

Resting on the couch.

The muffler on Daddy's car wasn't staying on right, so we had to go back to Rochester to get it fixed. We brought Duke along because he likes to ride in the car. Grandpa Al was home, so I go to see him.

Since we were in Rochester, Daddy wanted to go see Great-grandma Dorothy. She is staying at a nursing home for a few days before she goes back to her house. Uncle Neil came with us. She didn't know we were coming - boy was she surprised!

Great-grandma Dorothy was surprised to see me.

Grandma Wynne wanted to show me off where she works, so Daddy and I went to visit her there before we went home.

Everybody was pnching my cheeks!

Me with Grandma and her boss, Ann.

Grandma was trying to talk me into working for her. I declined.

We stopped to see Grandpa again and pick up Duke before we went home.

Grandpa was sleepy...but I shouldn't talk - I slept all the way home.

C'mon, Mom - stop taking pictures and flip me over!

Mommy and Daddy were tired on Friday night, so we went out to eat. I mean, they went out to eat. I had a bottle before we left. There were a lot of babies in the restaurant. Babies must make lots of people tired.

Duke looked like he was posing, so Daddy to his picture.

On Saturday night Mommy and Daddy played games with Kathy and Ben from down the street. I was naughty and fussed and cried and refused to go to sleep until way past my bedtime. I wanted to visit too!

Later that night, Auntie Kara called Mommy. Auntie Kara and Uncle Josh were camping, but with all the rain and more storms coming, they decided to go home - but Mommy persuaded them to come visit us instead.

Mommy and Auntie Kara went shopping on Sunday morning and brought me home a new toy.

This is me in my new bouncy noisy thing.

Just a picture of me in my hat (Josh is holding me).

The big people went out for pizza for lunch and I had... a bottle. Again. When we got back to the house, they decided to play a game. They kept forgetting whose turn it was, so they passed around my giraffe named Sheldon so they would remember who was supposed to be making their moves. Except for when they forgot to pass Sheldon around.

And that was it for last week. Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend!
