flea1. Casper is rather better. Still have 2 more doses of antibiotic, but she's rarely coughing now and has decresed the blue circles under her eyes considerably.
2. Mother (and, trailing distantly in her wake, her husband) have arrived. Had a very nice afternoon with them yesterday, receiving presents (distinct from actual Xmas presents), working on The Dillo's stocking, me cooking Indian dinner. Casper very excited to see Grandma. Dillo literally looked at her and laughed (and she wasn't even making Twee Voice at the time.)
3. Mother brought 4 long-sleeve onesies I bought off ebay for the Dillo and had shipped to her. Hanna Andersson 70s, good price, and they are lovely - thick, warm, like new, adorable, cute (pale blue, navy with white stripe, white with pale blue stripe, white with yellow stripe.) I am only writing about these because man, they are making me happy!
4. I would have posted that the Dillo's sleep is getting WORSE, but last night was decent. The night before, though, WIDE awake at 3am. mr. flea wins the parenting prize for taking care of that AND the subsequent 5am wake-up. Last night, down at 7, cried & nursed at 11:45, nursed at 2:45 because he was wiggly if mostly asleep but I was awake and my breast was about to explode, up at about 5:15. He is going to bed and sleeping the whole night in our bed again - so much for all my good intentions about the crib.

At the party, the person goes around, putting candy or a gift in the baby's hand and helping the baby to give it out to everyone there. It's supposed to make the baby generous in his life.
