The luckiest day

Yesterday was the luckiest day in a while.  We stopped by the Doctor's office after school to pick up Gus' prescription, and Sally, our favorite receptionist said, you're early for the baby's appointment.  Oh, yeah, I said.  I was thinking it was coming up soon.  You've got a half hour, she said.  We'll be right back with Teddy, I said.  So we raced home, got him, came back, and he had his one year check up.  Just one of those days.  I had wanted to take him in all weekend, he was fussy, acting like he had a cold, and coughing a little.  He is 19.2 lbs.  Had an ear infection.  Got three shots, and blood drawn for his anemia.  But what luck that fate had me go there and find out that he needed to go, and we just took him, no questions asked.  He got what he needed, medicine for the ear ache, and I got reminders for the next few appointments, just in case we forget them, too!
Thank goodness for reminder calls, which I didn't get this time, so I blame them!

Today is also Gus' 9th Birthday.  He is such a sweet boy.
