Lucy’s one year checkup with Dr. Ernster
18 Nov 2010Lucy is 22 pounds, 10 ounces (that’s 75th % for those of you following along). She is 30 inches tall, also 75th %. She received Dr. Ernster’s favorite and highest complement to her health: “Lucy is just Thriving.”
She got 4 shots, covering everything from mmr to flu to the kitchen sink.
And we talked about New Orleans pretty much the whole visit.
Extra Special Second Cup Today
18 Nov 2010I usually have my morning coffee as soon as I can after I wake up.
On school mornings, that coffee is necessary, reliable and not very memorable.
When I get back from dropping O. at school, I usually have time to appreciate a second cup. Don’t tell anyone that I microwave it. (One day I’ll get a really great espresso machine – till then…)
This morning I opened the fridge to a surprise present from Sweet Kiera!
A chill is in the November air, the light is streaming through my southern exposure, and I am delaying my computer tasks in the quiet bliss of Lucy’s nap time.
hmmm. still just primer on my door.
hmmm. need to wash those windows.
hmmm. coconut and lemon. mmmmm.
