What a Day

Today has been a long one. Justee must have had one more barf session in her because she threw-up in her crib again this morning(she did the exact same thing yesterday morning). She has had more baths than I can count in the past 4 days, but she has been fine the rest of the day. Charlee and Justee both had check-ups with the doctor. Charlee weighed 33 lbs (75%) and was 36 1/2 in. tall (50%). Justee weighed 20lbs (25%) and was 29 in. tall (50%). Charlee was being very difficult. First she did not want to step onto the scale. When I tried to put her on it she lifted her feet up so they wouldn't touch. It took quite a bit of coaxing to get her weight and height. Then in the exam room, she would not let the Dr. listen to her heart or look in her ears or mouth. She just kept saying, "I non't awnt to." Finally when the Dr. started talking about Dora she warmed up and held still. The bad news is that he could hear a small heart murmur and is referring us to a cardiologist. He said it doesn't seem to be very serious, but he wants us to get it looked at just to be safe. Once Charlee learned that she was getting 4 shots (we are way behind on her immunizations), she said the doctor was bad and he would hurt her. I told her that doctors are good and that she needs the shots to keep her from getting sick. Both girls got 4 shots and I think it was a toss up on who screamed the loudest. Sydnee was always pretty good about shots and barely made a sound, so these two are a far cry from that. Justee has always really screamed when she got shots. After it was all over I took Charlee to get an ice cream cone. She was very excited about that and said she wanted to tell Daddy that she got "tots and ikeem" when he got home. ...One other funny thing Charlee told me this morning was that everyone has "nupples" even daddy has nupples, but cats don't.
