As you know, Harper had her GI appointment and weigh in on Friday...it went well! The doctor had warned us that if she wasn't gaining weight like he wanted, he would make a new plan and Harper would need to be seen again in a month. The doctor cleared us until October! Tony and I both heaved a sigh of relief when our little girl weighed in at 10 lbs and 13 oz. Harper gained a whole pound since we were at the doctor's in June and the GI was imipressed with her turn-around. Our little "failure to thrive" is battling back and won't be kept down for long.Tony, the kids, and I spent our weekend running errands, spending time with friends, going to the gym, and doing some things around the house. We didn't have too much excitement and it was nice to be able to have a low key weekend. Sunday the kids didn't get out of their pjs until almost noon.
We did have a scary moment Sunday morning when I let Abby out around 6:30 and fell back asleep instead of letting her back in. Our doorbell rang an hour or so later and I sat up in bed and said "It's Abby, something's wrong with Abby"; Tony went racing to the door out and, sure enough, our sweet neighbor was holding Abby by the collar. The neighbor said she went out to get her paper and found Abby wandering around our front yard. Puzzled, Tony and I inspected the yard and found four fence posts that had been shredded creating quite a nice Abby sized hole. I'm sure it took her quite awhile to pull the fence apart, but who knows how long she was out or where she went. That girl came in and drank a whole bowl of water and then collapsed, panting, on the kitchen floor. I know she didn't spend an hour just sniffing in the front yard. If only she had a little Abby cam on her collar... We are very thankful she is home, safe and sound, and I am feeling grateful we didn't lose our girl.Here are two smiling kiddos to end our weekend post and help everyone have a great start to their week:
