Welcome Home, Baby!

Kent and I picked Carrie up from BCCSB in Hamilton today at approximately 11AM. We went to visit my cousin Trudy in Franklin, OH. Then we went to lunch at Burger King in Middletown. Carrie ate some of my French fries and chicken. She ate about two bites of chicken and about 7 french fries. She drank water.

Her appointment at the pediatrician was at 1:45PM. This was her overdue 18-month checkup. Her weight is down compared to her last visit at the same clinic. On April 15 she weighed 22 lbs 13 oz. Today she weighs 21 lbs 15 oz. She also has a mild infection in her right ear. She received a prescription for antibiotics. I filled out a change of address form at the front desk and gave it to Kaya.

Kaya commented that Carrie was like a different child. She couldn’t believe how much Carrie was walking and how active she was. She said that normally Carrie was very quiet in the doctor’s office and usually held by her mother.

We stopped at Walgreen’s on Briel Blvd to get the prescription filled. I gave them a change of address also.

We arrived home in Lexington around 5:00. We ate a snack together of cheese on wheat crackers, goldfish crackers, and apple sauce. She ate some lettuce from my salad. I tried to get her to eat a bite of my pork chop, but she didn’t want it. I changed her diaper at 6:30. She was wet.

We went for a walk around the block at about 7PM. Then we had another bite to eat. This time she had some stage 2 chicken noodle dinner and more crackers. She also drank apple juice.

I gave her a bath at 8. Her diaper was wet again. She was in bed by 9.
