Busy, busy, busy....


We have been an on the go family. By the time I get through the evening and get Zoey to bed, I'm exhausted and ready for bed myself. A couple of weeks ago we had her 6 month check up. She is doing awesome. She had a major growth spurt. Zoey is 27" long which is the 86th percentile for her age. Wow! Not sure where this amazon baby came from. She weighed 16 lbs. 10oz.
A week before her check up Zoey spiked a fever a couple of times, so we took her in to see the doctor. Double ear infection! Our first. We caught it early. It was a 5 on a scale of 10. Over the weekend then she developed a cough, so we got the nebulizer. And to top off all of that. She cut her first two teeth. Poor little thing. At least she had it all at once and got it over with!
We've settled into a nightly routine which helps with my anxiety. 5:30 veggies & fruit, 8:00 cereal & fruit, bath, 9:00 bottle and bedtime!
I finally got a jogging stroller. So we've been taking advantage of the nice weather and getting outside and to some different parks. Today we went for a quick run at Chalco. Will be alot nicer when everything turns green.
Last Friday I took Zoey to work with me for awhile. We visited some of my friends there. Attached is a photo of Jennifer with Zoey. I think Jennifer needs a baby girl. She was so funny with her. And of course Zoey took right to her.
As most of you know, I am loosing my job at the end of May. So I thought I would take advantage of the little time I have left at the hospital to share the biggest joy in my life right now. I truly appreciate every minute I get to spend with her.

Good to hear from you. Sounds like Zoey has been through a lot sine your last post.

I am sorry to hear about your job but at least they gave you time to plan ahead a little. Good Luck.
