6 Month Check Up

To start the day I had to be the Computer Mom at GWA with Hayden's class.  She was so excited but I was a little worried being that I also had Colton and Gracie.  Gracie can't go to school until 9:15 and Hayden's computer class was from 8:30-9:30.  They were very good even though Gracie was extremely shy!  It all worked out and it made Hayden one happy little girl.   When I left at 9:30, Mimi was going to Hayden's class to read them a Christmas book or two.  Needless to say Hayden was once again a very happy little girl.  She is so lucky to have Mimi available to do fun things with her.

Yesterday was Colton's 6 month check up.  He weighed 19lbs 12oz and was 27 1/2 inches long, which means that he was 90th percentile for height and weight!  Dr. Beeber says that he is as wide as he is tall!!!  He was such a sweet boy.  He is truly the best baby, he is just so laid back and easy!  Dr. Beeber complemented Mark and I by saying that all 3 of our children are so good and well behaved.  Colton did have to get three shots and even though they hurt really bad he only cried for a minute.  Gracie went with me and I have never seen her sit so still and quiet as she was while Dr. Beeber was in the room.  She didn't make a peep, I think she was scared she might have to get checked too!  She was relieved when Colton was the only one getting shots.heehee! 

Mark got home early yesterday which was good because Mommy is only one person and I wasn't sure that I would be back in Monroe in time to pick Hayden up from school. Not to worry Mimi and Aunt Vicki are always helping me out, I don't know what I would do without them!  Mark went to get her in his RED TRUCK!  That is a very big deal for those of you that don't know.  He said that she had the biggest smile he has ever seen when he pulled up to get her.  He also said the first thing she asked him was "Do you have Ms. Sue and Belle(the bird dogs)".   Unfortunately he didn't but she was still happy anyway.  She also told him that Mommy and Mimi came to her class today and she was so excited.  Made my day to make her so happy!   When she got home she came in and said "Mommy, Daddy took me to this really nasty store, you couldn't eat off the floor in this place, even the cash register was dusty"  then with a very serious look she says "Seriously Mommy".  I got tickled and couldn't imagine where in the world he had taken her so of course being the concerned Mommy I went straight to Daddy to find out what he did.  He said I took her to NAPA, he had to get a part for work!  We both got tickled but he did say that she told him while they were in the NAPA that it was really nasty!  She is getting so big and grown up, you never know what she is going to say!
