Five weeks, two different antibiotics, one full-blown case of pneumonia, an adventure to DC for Thanksgiving including a trip to the zoo with "old Gran-mama and old Gran-papa", one bout of bronchitis, two antibiotics, many nights of "don't want the breathing thing," one cancelled birthday party, and one BIG AIRPLANE that brought "Big Gran-papa and Big Gran-mama" to New York, despite snow, sleet and freezing temperatures...

One Thomas the train cake, "happy birthday to Milo" sung by four grandparents, two parents and none louder than the Birthday Prince himself, three candle-blowing photo ops, probably some considerable spoiling, new winter boots and... of course, cuddles galore.

Thank you to Papa's Papa and Papa's Mama for visiting us! Please come back soon.
