Cali's first shots

I took Cali to see Dr. Summers earlier this week. Del was sick and in bed, so Cali and I were on our own. I was really nervous, with all

the negative publicity about vaccines these days. Her doctor was very reassuring, and knowing that all the shots are single dose and no preservatives, we went ahead with all the scheduled vacs. She did really well. A little crying, but no reaction afterwards. Sometimes children run a fever, or get a little sick for a couple of days. She now weighs 11 pounds!! Almost twice as much as when we brought her home. She is really growing fast. - Alison

Cali's Debut

This weekend we had a big time! My Grandma Debra's friends hosted my debut party at the Tampa Bernina store. Boy was it fun! Everyone brought me books for my library and just went on and on about how pretty I am. We had cake and punch and everything!!! Mom said I was very well behaved. (Wouldn't you be too for presents?) I cannot wait until Mommy and Daddy read me my new books. Thank you to everyone who attended; especially to Ms. Shirley and Ms. Susie for hosting. We spend the whole weekend with Gma Debra and Gpa Gregor. Mom says we are going to Hawaii in a couple of weeks, I wonder if it's as nice as Tampa??

first trip to the beach

Oh boy did I have a big weekend! Mom and Dad took me to the beach for the very first time. We visited Siesta Key just off Sarasota, Florida. Granpa Gregi and Granma Debra came and met us for the night. We even took Mimi. The weather was really nice Friday, but Saturday was cloudy because of Hurricane Gustov. Daddy played with me in the ocean and I loved it! But it did taste funny. Dad was real upset that Hawaii played so horrible against Florida, but Mom was glad Georgia won even though we couldn't watch. We had fun. http://www.productsunshine.com/calipages/first_time_beach_video.html
