Well, Grandma and Grandpa Schurr have been gone over a week now. We miss them lots, but we do look forward to Grandma and Grandpa Ottery, Great-Grandma Nelson, and Aunt Lanna coming in next week! We had lots of fun while Dad and Lynn were here. They could not believe how big Gavin was. He got lots of hugs and kisses! We also had some more Iowa visitors come over, Bill and Lois Schurr, Grandpa's cousins. It was fun to see them and we enjoyed having them over to see Gavin. They thought he was sooo cute! Dadda was able to take Friday off and we all drove up to Payson, just to get out of town for the day. We went to a fish hatchery and saw lots of fish and then went to the small downtown area and had lunch and walked around. It was a beautiful day to be outside!
This past weekend, Gavin got really sick. This was the first time that Dadda and I have been up with him all night. He was so stuffed up and coughing. You feel so back for them, because they can't help themselves. He was miserable. I took him to the doctor on Friday and nothing showed up, but then we went back to the doctor yesterday and sure enough, Gavin had developed an ear infection. Poor baby. We now have medicine and he is slowly becoming himself again. Eating more and playing. I like to call him scooter, because that is how he likes to get around! He lays on his back and then pushes off his feet and moves all over! It is too funny. Even the lady in the church nursery commented on it, how he liked to "thrust" and scoot! He is something else.
