07-28-09 Autumn 4 mo. Doctor Checkup

Autumn had her 4 mos. check up and vaccines today. If I can remember this correctly, she is 11 lbs. 6 oz. and is 23 ¼ inches long. Doctor says she is taking after her mother in being petitie, he he he. I was tiny too as I pulled out my weight and height records my mom kept on me as an infant and I weighed the same thing as she did as the same age. Doc even asked me for a copy of my infant chart, he he he he . . . Doc said she is in the 10th percentile of weight and 25th percentile in height. He said when she turns two they can almost tell me how tall she will get, WOW, interesting. He checked her over well and said she looks great and is doing great. She didn’t like it when he checked out her ears and got in her face to look in her ears, she does not like strangers in the face right now going through that stranger fears, he he he, so she vocally screamed at him and she didn’t like it when she got her vaccines of course. I of course was NOT present in the room for that part, Daddy has to do the bad stuff, I just cannot stand watching them hurt her. I go out to the lobby and my mother ears still work and I can still hear my child’s distinctive cry when she gets her shots and I stand in the lobby with my heart racing waiting for her to appear out of the room so I can take her and soothe her, drives me insane, arrrgghh. Doc says she will come back when she is 6 mos. old for one more set of vaccines and then we take a long 6 month break, yeahhhhhhhhhhh, you know that makes me happy.

We took her to Target and got her a toy for her doctor’s visit, ha ha ha ha!!!!

07-20-09 Autumn's Dog Show Weekend

Autumn had a great dog show weekend for her first dog show's schedule. We were up each morning at 5am, so that was a bit tuff on all three of us. She stayed awake for the dog show while we were there, able to visit with folks and she was GREAT, no fussing at all, until Sunday where she got a bit fussy which was expected due to the early morning risings. She got some wonderful gifts as well from family and close friends. My Aunt Jimmie Dale gave her a pair of shoes, a dress and burp cloth with her name on it, her Mama gave her two noisy toys and a close friend of our Marie gave her a diaper bag with her name on it. I have posted the two items that have her name on them, they are so cute.

07-16-09 Autumn's 1st Dog Show Experience

Just got back from the dog show, Sean worked from home this morning and got done in time for us to go do a trial run for Autumn, yeahhh . . . was fun seeing everyone and showing off our little munchkin. Autumn was perfect, hope she is not saving up her fussing for Sat., ha ha ha ha. She was a little sponge she just stared and absorbed everything and even let folks hold her, it was great.

One of the Dane friends came up to see Autumn and had us rolling in laughter as he started to access her like a dog, he holds her head and says “now let’s see, planes look good, she is a bit light in eye, bite looks good, ha ha ha ha, was so darn funny.

We go back on Saturday, so I will keep posting as the weekend approaches
