My Favorite Year

Lessa and I were asked to help the local theatre group tonight - opening night of their new play "My Favorite Year" - selling tickets in the booth. We would be allowed to see the play for free - after monies were counted, etc. (we would miss the first 15 minutes or so). Free? Yup, we'll help.

It was a fun play - a musical - we have some pretty great talent locally. The group is trying to raise money to get their own place - a place to keep props and wardrobe - and maybe even hold small shows. (the high school theatre is quite expensive) Hopefully they were able to make some money tonight.

This morning I accompanied Ladybug and Isaiah to meet his pediatrician. She had been out of town when he was born, so this was a first meeting. She pronounced him healthy and perfect in every way. But we already knew that.

And, then it was time to take him to meet the doctor with the knife. Ouch! Yes, it was the day for his circumcision. Poor little guy. We checked him in and then all went downstairs to have some lunch while waiting for the doctor.

They put us into one of the OB rooms and then came and took the little man away, closing the door behind them . . . the better for us not to hear his outrage. When they brought him back mama nursed his hurt away.

awwwwww, look, he's got a little milk mustache.

Poor little guy. He was not a happy camper when he came back to us. We waited for an hour - with the nurses checking him every 15 minutes or so to make sure he was doing well, not bleeding and all. He was uncomfortable whenever he wet his diaper and whimpered a bit, but otherwise did very well.

Mama called me later to let me know that the "umbilical cord has left the belly button." So, another step has been achieved.

oh - and check out how tiny his feet are:

That's right, folks, I am a smitten Nana. He is such a sweet little tyke. And, I have fallen for him. hard. Ahhhhhh.
