Dogs, Docs, and Dolls

Well, turned out BAILEY lived across the street. I knew he couldn't have gone far, but I didn't want him to get hit by a car. Funny thing is, tonight my sister has him! Yes, someone else found him today, and took him to her house! She is axiously awaiting the 9pm phone call that I got. I guess his owner works late or something. You'd think she would repair that big ole hole in her fence!
Ileigh got her shots yesterday. She did so well. Yep, pain don't do much to that kid, but keep her away from a mud puddle and all hell breaks lose! Here is what happened. They fixed up a shot tray. She watched very inquisitively. She watched as they took her arm, squeezed it up, and stuck the fat needle in. She looked around the room. She turned toward me and dropped her chin as low as it would go into a gigantic frown face. Tears came down her cheeks and she watched as they prepped her other arm. She was all better as soon as the mean fat lady left with the shot tray. =)
She weighs 21 lbs 5 oz which is the 15%tile. She is 30 in. tall which is the 25th %tile. Her head is 50%tile. Dr. said not to worry about her being wordless. I do think she is really trying to say Dog, Light, and Eye though. She points a lot and sometimes kisses pictures of dogs and kittens.
It is probably time for some more picture posting. What do you think?

I think Ileigh looks like a doll in this picture. I got her to keep her bow on her head, and she looks so melancholy. See that bottle of Tylenol she was playing with? Just ignore that.

Ileigh doesn't smile for pictures as easily as she used to. In case you didn't notice, scan through the pics below. There are quite a few with a sour face, in fact.

Here is another pic of Ileigh running away with her pretty purple bow.

It's the dawn of the grumpy child. I can't get E to look at the camera much less smile for it. Ile looks adorable in her picture though. They still gave E his shots in his meaty thigh. Ile is a tough little cookie to take it in the arm!

AWWW.. great pictures and yes she does look like a doll. So cute. As for picture taking, when I try to take Olivia's pics now she just lunges for my camera and tries to eat it. Oh man!!! I didn't realize they gave shots in the arm that young. I didn't think that would start for a few years...OH NO!!!! Well I am glad she did well.
