The little croc had a boo-boo!

The peacocks were 'strutting'

We had a fun day on Sunday at The Ellen Trout Zoo in Lufkin. My parents used to take me there as a kid, & I must say it hasn't changed a bit!!! All of the exhibits are up close & personal with the peacocks wandering where they please & "talking" loudly! It was wonderful weather & we had a great time! I was happy to get a couple of decent pictures of all 3 kids together!

Caleigh had her 18 month check-up today & 2 shots. (We're all caught up until she is two years old now! Hooray!) She gained a pound & an inch since her 15 month check-up. She's now 19 pounds & in the 25th % on the charts! Amazing! She is on target & healthy. Her TB Test read much better last month, almost good enough to qualify as a true negative. Our doctor wants to wait another 6 months & re-test; we will of course follow her clinically & try for the blood test again as well...that's the only true way to know for sure she is TB Neg. There is still time to treat her with preventative meds if necessary....we would rather not if it is possible to avoid.
