December 30th - Harry had his 1 year checkup bright and early in the morning. The roads were quite wet, icy and very interesting to drive in. But we made it and got him all taken care. 3 shots and a good bill of health. Here are his statistics...
Weight ~ 20 lbs 8 oz ~ 17%
Height ~ 2 ft. 6 in. ~ 56%
Head ~ 18 1/4 in. ~ 46%
So he did a great job with his shots and really didn't do a whole lot of crying.
We were planning on having a Christmas visit from Aunt Allison as she was in the Barrington area and was going to drive up for the day. But again, due to weather she canceled. I don't blame her one bit.
Ellaree arrived home from her extended Galena visit around 3 in the afternoon wiped out and ready for a nap. Poor girl will need to sleep in for the rest of her Christmas vacation to catch up on her sleep.
That evening we had a wonderful Christmas Cheer with the Korn's. Our good friends Bill & Jane and their crew all came over to eat, play and have lots of fun.
December 31st - We finally had a day to stay at home and relax. The kids needed it after so much hussle and bussle these past two weeks. They slept in until after 8 which is so not normal for them. We were invited to many different places to bring in the New Year but due to Harry's last couple of days of full-time work at Kwik Trip we have decided to stay at home and get some much needed rest. We will miss it but will survive without it.
I was thinking today about how last year on this day we were bringing a blue bundle of joy home from the hospital. My oh my how much has changed in a year. Harry and I are very blessed to have such a beautiful family. Here is to 2011 and looking forward to 2012! May God Bless You All!
