Got a call yesterday to remind us that today was CP's ninth month appointment. Of course, her weight was really off due to her week long fight with the latest noro-roto-crap-til-you-puke virus that's going around town. [Enter Daydream like JD on Scrubs: Hmmm... this stuff comes to Tucson in the winter - I wonder how it gets here? Snowbirds that crap like geese, maybe?] Anyway, the doc gave CP some vitamins after checking her hemoglobin levels..which were off a bit as well. He mentioned that sometimes breast-fed babies don't steal enough iron from their mothers. I wanted to pipe up and say that they sometimes don't get enough because their mothers are just recovering from the above-stated virus, but I played nice.

The LW is working on making bread and I'll be off to the new garden soon. It's 80 degrees and beautiful out - we just awakened from a well-deserved nap.
