Follow-up Doctor Appoinment

After Penny's ear infection a few weeks ago, we had our follow-up visit yesterday.


She has started to realize what happens when we got to the doctor's office. She was OK in the lobby but once she saw the exam room she was not to happy. But we got through it OK and found out that all signs of ear infection are gone. Penny weighs 23.2 pounds and measured 32 inches, but I am not sure her height was accurate. We did it super-fast as she was crying pretty heartily. I'll say she's more like 31 or 31-1/2.

While we were waiting:

2 more shots for the poor girl but we don't have to go back until March.

Oh Christmas Tree 2013

This past Saturday we put up our tree!
XMAS-TREE-2

Penny loved 'touching' the branches so we let her at it before the decorations went on.







Pulling out the ornaments from last year was fun. You don't see them for a whole year and then they bring back memories and smiles.

With the tree up and the pine-scented candle out, it's beginning to look (and smell) a lot like Christmas around here.
