Sayulita Mexico was a blast. I built sandcastles, destroyed sandcastles, played in the surf, threw rocks in the pool and met many many people. Mom and Dad had a blast too. I also had fun playing with Noah and Reid.

Ramsey had seizures last Monday morning. It was a very very traumatic day for all of us and he had 2 more seizures at the ER, then 3 more at the Childrens Hospital Oakland ER. Catscans, Spinal Tap, EEG, Blood work all came back negative. We think it’s linked to the virus he got Friday. Lots of vomiting and diarrhea but no fever at all. We got back from the hospital Tuesday afternoon and June flew in Tuesday night.

He is finally back to normal. Seizures were either related to his virus or even possibly to some of his vaccinations he got the week before. They can’t say for sure. Roto virus was ruled out. The good news is he is eating like a horse, sleeping like our cat and laughing all the time again. June left today and we’re all doing great. What a scare!!!

Let’s see… Mom went out of town first weekend of December and it was a me and dad weekend… running around naked, going to the zoo and the park…. good times. I saw Santa again and he still managed to find me in Tahoe at Auntie Jess’s house

. The snow was cold on my hands but I had fun. Nan and Pop were out for a few weeks so it was great to see them. I am 17 months old now….

What a big month! I went to Minnesota to see my uncle Matt get married and hung out with my Great Gramma Betty Kelly and Great Grandpa Jim Kelly. It was great to see them and they seemed to be doing better than I thought they’d be. All of the Kelly fam was there and I was an All Star at the wedding and reception. I had a great time meeting my huge extended family. Cold though… brrr.I also went to a Pumpkin Patch in Half Moon Bay with mom and dad and grandmother Mann, who I call Nan. There was a giant pumpkin and a tee-pee and a tractor. The tee-pee and picking up dirt clogs were my favorite.

Finally, I closed down the month as Yoda for Halloween. Mom and Dad were Luke and Leia, my buddy Cooper was Obi-wan and Xian and Sacha were Han and Padme. We had a ball. Segue, *ball* is my favorite word and I love it when dad throws it and kicks it at me so I can throw or kick right back. My vocabulary includes Mamma, Dadda, Ball, Book, Bird, Hot, woof woof for dog, and in Spanish I can say Mas thanks to Nana, my babysitter Dianna.

Mom took me to the Berkeley rose garden on Saturday and got some shots. I am looking like a big boy now.

On Sunday Mom and I went to watch dad surf at Ocean Beach and played in the sand, saw lots and lots of people (100,000+) and banjo’s at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in Golden Gate Park as the Blue Angels soared overhead. I love airplanes.
