Walk About, Sort of

For those of you who follow or just pop in from time to time this will be my last post for a while. If any of you have seen the movie "Crocodile Dundee" I guess you could say that I'm going on a walk about, at least mentally.

Things change in ones life. Or sometimes you notice something that has been in front of you all the while but you never really saw it. At that moment you realize that maybe you need to take stock, re-evaluate, clear the clutter, look inside and get things in order. The Aussie's way is the perfect solution, however it's not physically reasonable for "me" to do so.

You will find a similar post on my Face Book pages. When things are done and in order another post will be done. Until then, pop in and enjoy the music, take care of yourselves and be happy.

Correct Weight

My Daughter has corrected me on Maddison's weight gain. I didn't look closely at the decimal point and thought she had gained 2 pounds; it was actually 2 ounces. Sorry about that, my eyes really are going on me it seems as well as my brain or rather my patience for the medical profession :) As you can tell I get a bit crazy where that is concerned.

Hope y'all will forgive an old broad like me that has grown to not trust the medical community and all these confounded things they keep coming up with...... just consider it the rantings of a crabby old southern woman :) Who, by-the-way thinks her granddaughter is perfect :)

5 Month check

Maddison just had her 5 month check-up and the docs seemed to be concerned that she only gained 2 pounds in a month (although she did seem to grow in length). They did tests and her Mommy is waiting on the results of the blood work.

When did the medical world decide that all babies should weigh a certain amount by a certain age? I remember going through this same BS in the late 70's with Katie, she turned out just fine and there was nothing "wrong" with her back then. The medical community needs to get a grip on themselves and stop trying to get a grip on our money and needlessly worrying people.

I am attaching two pictures, one is of Katie at about 5 months and the other is Maddison from her beach trip last month. If you ask me, they both look quite healthy and about the same weight (Maddison is a bit longer than her Mom at that stage I think).
