Annual Checkup Weekend

Last week Alaina went to see Dr. Dennis for her annual checkup.  She screamed and clung to me when the nurse asked her to stand on the big girl scale so she had to put Alaina on the table to weigh her.  And how much had she gained?  One pound!  That is it!  I was so suprised because she eats like a pig!  But she did gain some inches.  She is now 32 1/2 inches tall. 

Dr. Dennis said she looked great.   He asked her where her nose, fingers, toes and ears were.  I was so proud when she got them all right!  She survived a vaccine and a finger prick before we went to eat and headed home.  Alaina spent the afternoon resting.  I guess she was saving it for Saturday.

Saturday was a busy day.  Alaina spend most of the day outside.  She helped Poppa by carrying a bucket of nails while he fixed fences.  Then she helped Daddy drive the Backhoe.  After she rested, she helped Daddy plant trees. 

I know she and I both ready for warmer weather so we can enjoy more days outside.
