We went to the doctor this morning for Eve’s 6mo
checkup. She is, of course, strong, healthy, and doing fine.
She’s 17lbs 2oz and 27″ long. Passed all of the checks and got
rewarded with 4 shots in her pudgy little thighs. Poor girl.
She was great all day, but they seem to be catching up with her
tonight as she’s been fussy, hot and not sleeping well.
Hopefully her recent doese of Tylenol will help.

Pre-shots, of course.)

We had a great visit with the family this
weekend. Even my uncle from CA was in town! It felt like a
whirlwind of restaurants and we were all exhausted by the end
:) Well fed, but exhausted :) Eve got her first experience with
restaurant high chairs and another shot at swimming. She loved
it this time. A good time was had by all. (Four
generations at the playground)

On a down note, I heard back from the job I was
hoping for and they decided to go with someone else. I’m pretty
bummed, mostly because I let myself get too excited about it.
Blah. I have two more interviews this week and a playdate with
a woman who does childcare, so I’ll be picking her brain and
maybe she can relieve some of my fears in that dept so I can
move forward with that instead of job hunting. It’s all so
complicated :/ Tell me again why money can’t grow on trees?? :)
(My children’s reaction when I got off the phone,
after being turned down for a good job, and said BLAH!! They
were hysterical. They always help to put things in
perspective.)
