These are two of the Doctors that I not only worked with at Creekside (until I left in Sept. to be a stay-at-home Mom) but the Doctors that cared for me for 9 months and delivered Madelyn!
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. McAlister (left)! He was wonderful during my entire pregnancy and although I wish he could have delivered Madelyn, Dr. Reiter (right) was the one who was there that night and was also really great!
These pictures were taken when Madelyn was 8 weeks old. She had been passed around the clinic to all my friends/co-workers there, so by the time I got over to the Dr's, she was pretty tired...
...as you can see! Although Madelyn is screaming, I still love this picture!
What a wonderful experience to have a baby!
It's been fun sharing my pregnancy with these girls that I work with, Renae & Leslie. Renae is a month behind me and Leslie is 2 weeks behind her. (They make me look really huge!) We kept meaning to get a few pictures of the 3 of us, and finally did earlier this week. We call them the "McBabies" because all of our last names start with "Mc". I really hope to be meeting MY McBaby this weekend! If not, then I am scheduled for an induction next Thurs, Sept 16th! 
On Tuesday, the girls at my work threw me and another co-worker, Renae, a baby shower! Renae and I worked together at the hospital and both moved to the clinic at the same time. We are both having girls, so the shower was very pink & very cute! They served baked potatoes (my fave food!), salad & bread for lunch. The cake was so cute & yummy, too! I took Mason with me and he had fun. I got so many cute, girly gifts~from outfits to blankets to room decor. It was a fun day and I'm so thankful for them throwing the shower!
Me & Renae (a little blurry)
We've officially been declared a "Disaster Area." I'll let the pictures do the talking~this was my trip in to work this morning...
Great news! Little Miss Harper is doing a lot better! She's the newborn baby of Kelly, whom I blogged about here.
Thanks for your prayers~to see the cutest pics and the full update, go here.
I got a flu shot!
Last year's "plague" hit almost everyone (I was the most sick on Valentine's day) so I thought I might as well give in and just do it. Plus I think I'll have Mason vaccinated & I wouldn't do it to him without putting myself through it. Can I just say~OUCH! The shot itself did not hurt, but my arm started feeling sore right after & it aches all over now! Of course I kept hitting it all day & leaning on it by accident. (not that I lean a lot) Anyway, I did it & I'm a big baby about it. That's pretty much all I wanted to share.
Oh, and that my boss bought me an awesome new desk today! I get to graduate up from the table I was using that had zero work space after shelving my computer, keyboard, adding machine, phone, etc. I will be rearranging my office tomorrow & I need to start a painting for one of the walls. They're screaming for some artwork!
Man, I lead a pretty exciting life.
Monday:
Mom & I went to Chloe's Drama performance. They did funny skits from SNL & Mad TV. I know I'm biased, but Chloe' really did great! She has found her niche. I forgot my camera & was unhappy, but Mom brought hers and got some shots, which she needs to e-mail me.
Tuesday:
I attended the Junior League Annual Dinner, which is our last meeting of the league year. There was a buffet dinner with wine, awards, and time to visit with friends. I got to take home one of the table centerpieces, these beautiful pink Gerber daisies--my 2nd fave flower! (& Christy's too!:))
Wednesday & Thursday:
Two more days down the drain--spent my time at work! ugg.
Friday:
Wayne was off, so we went to Lowe's and dropped some dough. We cannot set foot in that establishment without laying down some money. We left with a new ceiling fan (one with a light fixture, unlike our current one, and much prettier),a new outdoor light fixture to replace the ugly brass outdated thing we have, and paint for the hallway & garage, along with various paint supplies. Wayne installed the outside light fixture and I swear it makes the whole porch look better! (I should take a picture of it)
Friday evening, I took Mason with me to my work dinner to celebrate National Hospital Week. He had fun playing with the other kids. He was friendly to everyone, held hands with my co-workers' kids, and let random people pick him up! (Which is a little scary--he doesn't have that "stranger danger" thing figured out yet)
Saturday:
Went to Hobby Lobby & my parent's house while Wayne painted the hallway. It turned out great! Then I took Mason to Sydney's birthday party (my friend Heather's daughter) in Elkins (my first ever trip the the town of Elkins!) and Mason had a blast! He got to jump around in a small bouncy house that was just his size, play on the slide & swings, running around barefoot in the grass, chase bubbles, play with the other kids, & eat cake. He had some great fun "kid" time! Too bad I forgot my camera!!!!! (so mad) I think my friends Amber & Heather got some pics of Mason though...please send them to me!
So, needless to say, I'm pretty pooped out after all those activities. I'm not complaining though--they were all fun! (except working!)
