Carly and August both had checkups today. So the four of us piled in a taxi (note: putting a car seat into a taxi is a rather slow and careful action, so no actual piling occurred) and we headed to Cheongdam.
First, August got checked out. Here are his current stats:

In American that means he is 1 foot 8ish inches, 8 lbs, and has a decent-sized head. He’s regained a good bit of weight but has a way to go to get back to his birth weight.
Here is Oma with August in the doctor’s office:

Then Oma, August, and I sat in the waiting room while Carly had her appointment. I know he can’t focus very far, but he was fascinated by the colors from the big windows and all of the overhead lighting. He squirmed every which way to look at all the lights:

Back home, my coworker/friend Renee brought over a wonderful veggie lasagna for dinner and stayed for a visit:

As if lasagna and beef stew (for tomorrow) wasn’t enough, they also surprised us with a present. The giraffe is handmade in Illinois and one of the books (with the spider) was one of Renee’s books from when she was a child:

All of us are particularly tired tonight, so time for bed. August in particular seems a bit worn out, so I don’t think he’ll be on Twitter this evening.
thanks for resending the link, carly, our computer just completely died so I had no way of following August’s lovely life. At first, I thought that shirt said: Word Collector, and I thought, "How perfect!" but then realized I couldn’t see the "S." Swords are pretty cool, though:) I think Sal got "Flamenco Dancer."
