knees, and head

Kierson likes his knees, he in no way has made any further attempts to even come close to standing. He often comes to this table ( which I have to clean wayyyyy to often to due handprints, and now mouth prints) and chews, he chews or gnaws rather,this table, and then has a big happy grin about it. What a silly boy. He just turned 10 monthes, and yesterday we took him to his plastic surgery appointment. He will be having surgey on his forehead this summer. He will have 2 surgeries , to remove his " nevus" . he will be put "under" and both are overnight hospital stays,,, The doctors believe there could be potentially cancerous cells in it , due to the color, size....etc. He was all SMILES =) at the appointment, the doctor was amazed at how happy he was ! I hope he is still all smiles come this summer, when he will under the"tissue exspansion" procedure, stretch his skin out to a baseball size, and remove his spot. This will take about 4 monthes, give or take, and he will have weekly injections to pump up his skin with saline solution. I am exasperated with how many comments I get. ANYWHERE, and I'm not kidding, people make a comment. Usually along the lines of " OOOO he got a big owie huh ? " . People seem to come up to me and comment, or passing by me and turn around. Usually it's about 3 people per outing / store. I have come up with an usual response, including his surgery now. But,seriously I would NEVER , NEVER, NEVER go up to anyone and comment on their kid/ baby,,, of any nature of abnormality on them. I just would'nt.

I'm sorry that it is so frequent that people comment on poor Kierson's head. It'll get worse before it gets better though. What is your response to them? You said you have a resonse....

Kaldon. Do you like that name? I just heard of a baby boy named that. It means "wise" in the Tibet language.

Kierson is getting so big and has the biggest smile!!! He is so cute! I can't want to see you guys again. I can't believe how rude people are. I hate when strangers just assume things about your child and feel the need to comment on it.
