Dear Journal,
I officially have my first cold. I'm 7 weeks old today but I have a small cough, some sneezing and a runny nose. My mommy and daddy think I look so cute when my tongue curls up and I cough though, and really, who am I to disagree
. Yesterday was an exciting day for me because I took my first shower. I needed a bath and daddy needed a shower so we decided to kill two birds with one stone, although I never saw the dead birds. After the showers we went to the doctor to confirm this cold and I had gained a little more weight. In the 7 weeks of my life I have gained almost 3 pounds and have grown a little over 3 inches.
Next week is Thanksgiving and I have a lot to be thankful for. For one, I get to celebrate this day twice. We are celebrating with Daddy's family Saturday. Secondly, I am going on my first airplane trip on Monday to Connecticut and so you can imagine that I am a little nervous. But I am sure that it will awesome and the first of many trips there. We are going to celebrate Thanksgiving next week there. Last but not least, I get to meet some more family. I am super excited about getting to meet my Cool Aunt Erin and Pepere. I am really excited about this trip and will write more about it when I get back. So, until then have a Happy Thanksgiving 
.
