Gwenny is close enough to sitting unassisted that she's riding in the shopping cart now. She loves every minute of it, and turns around to try to reach whatever is in the basket.
Last Sunday, Pa-pop A took G and her cousin around in the bike trailer. G was very observant and looked around at everything. Cousin cried anytime the bike stopped and G would just stare at her.
Cousin and Toby dog seem to be afraid of the vacuum, but not G. She wanted to chase the vacuum around the room while Gramsy vacuumed!
G saw the pediatrician on Monday. She weighs 21 lbs, 32+ inches long and head circ is 43 cm. I talked with the dr about my concern about vaccinations, but that I wanted to try starting them again. We decided to just do one Monday, PCV. By Wednesday her leg had a large pink mark around the injection site. I called the dr, went back in and it turned out G had a skin infection from the vaccine. (cellulitis?) She's on antibiotics now.
G has started pushing with the tops of her feet when she scoots around on her belly. I'm pretty excited that she is trying to use her legs. However, she's got a little sore on her foot from rubbing against the carpet. (That's the pic of the princess band-aid on her foot.)
I still have not had the opportunity to meet Gwenny in person but it has been delightful to enjoy the videos on Facebook of her as well as the photos! Glad you have this blog to help us understand better the triumphs and struggles as well as the giddy, silly, curious, and new adventures each day brings!
