Summer has begun!!

Here is the first of many entries I forsee in the future. It's funny how much having my two older brothers around can change things, for the better. We are having so much fun. Teeth are being lost, casts are coming off, and of course the newest edition to our backyard playplace (Jacobs you've got to come try this!!), Sidewinder Falls!! Not to mention in only three days we'll be off to sunny Southern California to stay at the Paradise Pier Hotel at Disneyland!! Oh ya, uh huh, so cool, or as my brothers, Ethan and Caleb, might say, "This summer is gonna be tight!" And I get a week off from therapy!!

And yet another two months have passed...

Yes, I know, it's been a long time since my last post. My apologies to all who have remained loyal to me throughout the last two years and a half years. Yes, it has been that long. Grandparents, Aunt and Uncles, cousins, and my brothers, sit back, hold on to your seat, and enjoy the ride. (It could be another two months before you see anything from my ghostwriter again. I might have to fire him.)

So this is me right now. Yes I'm actually sitting on the floor as I write this wearing my mama's glasses (come on people, let's keep a little perspective here). ALright so maybe not right now, but its a fairly recent representation of me and my fun personality. I love to wear my mama's glasses.



Eating. This is usually the first thing Mama and Dada are asked about by those who know my particular quirks and inquetudes (that's a Spanish word. I have a Spanish video I watch that is very fascinating, lots of songs). So here you'll find a little picture of me munching on my favorite all-day treat. The Cheeto. (You'll also notice the marks from my recent head-banging tantrums.) I am finding food a little more tolerable and have now eaten Tortilla Chips, Ritz Crackers, and Cheetos (my favorite by far). See a pattern here? I've also tasted Cranberry Juice and an Apple Fritter (courtesey of my Dada).



As for my bottle, the second picture here is what my folks hope for every time we sit down to eat. Lately, it hasn't been that way and nothing short of a miracle will save me from a surgery to help me thrive. We only just met with my GI Doctor, so I can't give more details about this right now. I can tell you I will be having a ph Probe done here very shortly to determine whether my reflux is still an issue (I've been off all my meds for six weeks now!).



So, let me introduce you all to my brothers, Ethan and Caleb, who have only just arrived from the far off land of Arizona and plan to spend the whole summer with me. Ethan arrived in rare form with a cast on his left arm where he had a supracondylar fracture. He no longer has the cast as of this writing but rather forcely convinced the technician removing it that he wanted to keep it ("Dude, I want to keep it."). Both have rather unruly and long cabello (another Spanish word) and tell me its the in-style thing to do. They also use the word 'tight' as some sort of adjective meaning to be cool.



Before I go, I'll share two pictures of activities I find very enjoyable: Sleeping and Watching myself on the VideoCamera.




My love to all. Hunter out.
