New Developments

Between last times post and this one, it seems my girl has changed overnight.  She is a walking, talking, getting into EVERYTHING machine and I have no clue where it has come from. 

She had her second Developmental check-up a couple of weeks ago.  She's doing great and is right where she is supposed to be developmentally.

It was a two day trip to the beach where my gracious and always wanting to help father met me at the hospital for her appointment.  I knew we would be there awhile and I needed some help wrangling the wild girl.

She was such a good girl.  She is a meaty 23 lbs and 29 inches long.  While getting my info, the nurse kindly asked "And is this the daddy?"  Ummm, not quite.  We explained he was PaPa (grandpa) and we all laughed and she made the remark that you never know these days...very true!  We go back for her last appointment in Feb. of next year, which is crazy to think about because she will be almost 2 then!!

I'm pretty sure she used up all her patience on that day because the next morning we had the eye doctor appointment.  Lets just say she wasn't so willing to sit still and hang out as she was the day before.  But that appointment went well and we go back to see him in 6 months.


While we weren't at the hospital or the eye docs, we were hangin out at MeMe and PaPa's and lets just say we had a great time!

Especially when we got to feed the turtles!!

It was so funny...my girl had NO fear what-so-ever from these turtles.  Wish we had a pond like that behind our house, we would be out there everyday!!

We just got back from a weeks long vacation at the beach and needless to say I have tons of pics from that.  I'll be posting on that next but the last picture I want to leave with is a before and after.  Right after she was born, the nurse from my doctors office told me we needed to buy something to put in her isolet and take weekly pictures of her and it to document her growth.  Well that turned out to be a pink bunny, actually at first it was a mechanical monkey with two baby monkeys and one of the baby monkeys was ripped from his mothers arms to be put in with her...but we decided she probably didn't need wires and such in her isolet with her, hence the pink, wireless, bunny.  I just now took an updated picture of her with the pink bunny.

Before...

And After...

Amazing the difference a year and some months make...
