Sunshine Farm and Maddie's weight check

Yesterday, July 11th was a fun day. I started the day by taking Sydney to preschool at Small Wonders at Campbell UMC. She LOVES it there. She is going part-time in the summer but will resume back to full time in the fall for Pre-K. I then spent all afternoon at Holly's to see Tanner and have her help me with my blog and my myspace account. She invited me to go with her and her aunt and her cousin Amanda to Sunshine Farms for lunch and to buy some blueberries. It was so much fun! Thanks again Holly for the fun day. I wish Mel could have joined us. Maddie and Tanner were so GOOD.

When I left Holly's I went to the Women's Center at Cox to check and see how much Maddie has gained and she weighed in at 10 pounds 2 ounces. I was very pleased! They said she was doing great. I had been concerned about a "rash" that developed on her face, neck, and upper chest, but after looking on the Internet and calling the Dr. I have discovered that it is just "baby acne" that will go away within 3-6 months. They told me that it is my hormones that she is releasing from her system. That makes sense! It looks bad when she is hot or if we are out in the heat. She is not bothered by it...but mom and dad are. I have noticed this morning that it is not as red. I hope it goes away soon.

After I went to get Sydney from preschool, I came home and pumped and then fed Maddie. My friend Kelli and her daughter Kalli came by and we went to eat at El Punte Mexican Restaurant for dinner. Mark had to go to bed early as he left for work just a bit ago.

Thanks again Holly for helping me format my blog and play list. I am enjoying this. I will post more pictures later today.

So glad to help! I really like this background.

Aren't those blueberries delicious??? I left a pint in the fridge and froze the rest. Tobin said that was a pretty good price!

I cannot believe Maddie is over the 10 pound mark! I wonder what Tanner is now? We were up at the same time! Good job on pumping!

also, if you'll use really general labels, we can put a list in the margin that will categorize your posts. someday you'll have a whole bunch and may want to reference a particular post. if they're grouped by subject, it will be easier to find. check out my labels on my blog or mel's for ideas.
have a great weekend!

Thanks Holly!

The blueberries are GREAT! I just keep on eating them. I froze a lot too.

I know...Maddie is growing so well. I am so happy about it.

I cannot wait to find out about Tanner and his weight as well as his car seat check.

Thanks for the ideas on the labels for the Blog....I will make them more general.

We had a fun weekend...Mark is watching hunting now...LOL.

Maddie is down and Sydney is fighting sleep....of course.

Gotta go pump. HeeHee.

Did the Earth stop spinning....? Did Robin get her blog going??? lol... Good job, it looks fantastic! Just love that John Mayer song "Say" lately also. And am also loving Duffy's "Mercy" which is on myspace playlist.

I wish I could have gone to lunch too...dang it. Congrats to Maddie on thriving!

I love that song Say...really good.
And I like Duffy too. I find myself looking up songs from the past...boy that bring back memories. LOL
