Home Again
Today, Paul and I had a good day. We both got lots of things done. Paul napped in the morning, freeing me up to rescue the green chair from its heavy load. Then we went to the library for toddler time.... if Paul ever starts toddling, he'll fit right in! We ran errands to the book store (Ordered Harry Potter's final installment due out 21July) I'll have to start a ticker! And went to Sam's to get a car seat, milk and meat.
In the afternoon, we went for his one year physical - he weighs 22lbs, 12oz and is 30 inches tall. 4 More inches and he'll be tall enough for the new forward facing car seat that we bought today. Paul did really well with the physical and didn't really scream too horribly with the 3 shots - I hate when he becomes a pin-cushion. Surprisingly he didn't cry AT ALL when they pricked him to draw blood for a CBC. I was shocked! He was fascinated watching the blood come out of his finger. Odd child. Definately mine!
Anyway, we are home from New York last week..... We had a great time at my sister Kate's graduation. It was super to be with the whole family, although I must admit that seven days of family togetherness was about my limit. Paul and Miriam did quite well together, although at this point, they barely acknowledge each other's existence. Paul hit Miriam on the head at first encouter, Miriam cried. Paul took Miriam's BB whenever he could reach it, Miriam worked at grabbing BB back. Miriam learned from Paul that remote controls and telephones are desirable objects, worth crying for.
We had a great time toodling around Upper New York - Potsdam and Lake Placid. And we traveled to Ottawa where we saw a tulip festival and walked all over the unscenic side of the city. We had a great time. I'll post pics soon.
More soon,
:)
