Happy B-day Mom...Now take me to get my Shots!


Today Ella got her first shots. Ella had a good visit with Dr. Whitehead today. He says she is happy, healthy and doing GREAT! She weighed in at 10 lbs and 10 1/2 ounces. She is 22 1/2 inches tall and her head is 15 1/2 inches around. A little advise to those of you who don't have a second one yet....NEVER make a doctors appointment for multiple kids at the same time. I did this it thinking...oh, I will multitask and take them both in, have one wait time in the waiting area, both see the doctor, both get their shots and get out. HA! HA! HA! It doesn't quite work like that. Thank goodness Kevin was off for Martin Luther Kings Birthday and went with me or I would have been chasing Mary Catherine down near the 301 Drive Inn. I had Ella, she couldn't go anywhere and just cried for a minute. Mary Catherine was a whole different story for a whole different blog. Let's just say, I will never do that again!
Ella loves her play telephone rattle. She is definitely her Mommies girl...Knows how to use that phone at an early age. She makes the oo and aa sounds and likes to look at faces. She loves the bouncy seat and often sits in it while I work. She likes work and we are enjoying being out some. So far she has done 2 closings and one group lunch with the engineers at the Japanese steak house. The gripe water is still working for us and we love the swaddling blankets. We are about to need the next size up. We are still sleeping about 6 hour stretches at night. They are good six hours for this sleepy Mom.
My favorite thing. . . when I change Ella's diaper, she thinks it is so funny if you say..."Ooooohh....Do you have a wet diaper? Ohhhh....Is that a stinky in there?" She just smiles giggles! She also giggles if I blow raspberries on her tummy. Kevin says it is my facial expressions that she is laughing at...he says I could say is that a million dollars in there and she would laugh....I don't think so. He is just jealous that she wont laugh at him! HA! Mary Catherine and Ella seem to be getting along well. Ella is fascinated with Mary Catherine and watches her close.
