Vaccine one done!

Hip hip hooray! I got my first vaccine shot on Saturday! (hey, that rhymes!)

I went back to Lumen Field to get my shot and just as I had observed, the process ran very smoothly. The longest I had to wait was just to get in the building, but mainly that was because I brought my purse with me and so stood in the security line to get my bag checked. The guy checking was SO SLOW, asking everyone to take things out of their bags etc. After that, it was super smooth sailing. The volunteer checking me in was very friendly and said she saw that I had volunteered recently and so thanked me for my service. Then, it was a quick jab in the arm and we were done. With the observation time, I think I was in and out within 20 minutes.

Since it was the first sunny Saturday in a long time, afterwards we grabbed sandwiches at a nearby Carribean sandwich shop that had great patio seating and then walked across the street to get a free Krispy Kreme donut! It was a really good morning! 

My arm felt super sore the evening and the next day, but then it went away and everything is feeling fine!

Donuts + sunny skies!

Happy new year!!

Goodness, it's already 2025! It's been a really long time since we posted!  We had a very lazy new year. We flew back from LA on the evening of the 31st so spent the last remaining hours of 2024 cozying up on the couch and then fell asleep before it even hit midnight! On New Years day, we slept in, cleaned up the house and then did a quick hike the next day. All in all, a good start to the year! Nora's new blanket hoodie. Cold and muddy trails. We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.  

1 week checkup

We took Nora to her one week check up today and guess what? We have a porker on our hands! She weighed in at a whopping 6 lbs. 5.5 oz. That's 2.5 oz more than her birth weight! They want the baby to be back at birth weight within 2 weeks so she beat that milestone pretty handily. Hooray! So far, she's been better than Evie at eating (she doesn't take nearly as long, although she falls asleep VERY often) but she's not as good as Evie at pooping. Poor thing always seems to have tummy issues - she's very squirmy and fussy when she doesn't burp or poop. The doc doesn't think it's a big problem though since she still has lots of wet diapers, but we'll have to keep a better eye on it now. We'll have another doctor check up (with shots!) next week.

Poor little Nora! This little munchkin was running after her sister when we were out on a walk yesterday and tripped. She banged her face up pretty good, but thankfully it wasn't worse.  A big ole egg! she didn't like me trying to clean those scratches  breakfast thus morning! Lots of jam on her face to match her war wounds!
