1 year appointment

Peter and I journey out into the wide, wide world yesterday to pay a visit to Peter's AWESOME doctor - Dr. Arnold. Since it was Peter's 1 year appointment he only had to have one shot. I was so happy about that. Peter absolutely loved the Bert band-aid that they gave to him. and he loved showing it to Papa when he got home later that night.

The Dr. told me not to worry about trying to get Peter to stop sucking his thumb at this point. Whew, I was glad about that. He said that it's typically easier once they are 2 years old or so. He also said that Peter can start drinking milk. WoW! It seems crazy that he's at this point. I remember thinking we'd never get here.
I'm not sure what Peter will want to do about nursing once we start him on whole milk, but I'm good to keep going if he is. What a grand adventure this whole motherhood thing is.

In other news, my sweet sista' is going to have her baby within 20 or so days!!! Wahoo! I wish I had a zillion bucks to send her so she could buy everything she ever wanted for her baby (Ella). Alas, I don't, but I did make her a cute baby mobile. I didn't get a picture of it before sending it off, so hopefully she'll send me one once she has it assembled (wink, wink Lisa).
