Water Girl




These are not great pics, but all I got the other day on our way to the pool. In the first one, Hattie’s waving to the neighbors…we wave LOTS these days. When we left the pool that day, she was waving to everyone like she was the First Lady or something. She’ll wave to her toys, she waves to the pee-pee going down the potty, to her milk when it goes back in the fridge, crumbs being wiped from her tray, you name it, it gets a wave.
We had an eventful night last night. Hattie took a dive off a side table in the family room (its only about 2 feel high). I missed the fall, but she landed face down and laid there for a long time. I actually had to pick her up, which is unusual. Then she cried longer than normal, so I tried to distract her with dinner. Every time she went to grab for something with her right arm, she would start crying again and hold it. This went on for about 45 minutes before I finally (cried and) took her to an urgent care by our house. Of course by the time we got in, she seemed to be doing much better and was reaching with her arm again. When the doctor came in, I was even able to take her shirt off over her head without a fuss. He said she may have sprained or strained it, but doubted anything more. Today Brian says she is back to her usual happy self. Thank goodness we got past our first scare unharmed.
Phew!
