Brilliant Parenting or Dumb Luck?

I am pretty sure it is dumb luck. Walker and Truman had their doctor appointments this afternoon. The appointment was at 3 and I decided that Walker didn't need his nap b/c it would be too hard to get him down and then back up again so I opted for a rest on the couch. He slept in the car on the way to the doc and got about 20 minutes in.

They are both doing great. Walker is 25 lbs (20th %ile) and 34.5 inches (50th %ile) and Truman is 14 lbs 11 oz (off the chart) and 24 inches (90th %ile). Truman has a bit of congestion and we will be taking a stool sample to see if he has been infected with the parasite that the gripe water got recalled for. Walker got one shot and a finger stick. Truman got 3 shots and an oral rotovirus vaccine. Mimi went with us and that was such a help.

After the doctor we went back to Mimi's house. Walker played outside and Truman fussed (what's new?). We had a delicious dinner and left for home a little after 7. It might only be a 10 minute trip but Walker fell asleep on the way and Miracle of Miracles...he stayed that way. I got him in the house and to his room, changed diaper, undressed, put on a sleeper and into the bed. He didn't wake up. Truman screamed the whole time and I got him dressed and ready for bed, fed him, stuck him in his swing and was ready to go a full 12 minutes before 8 and I didn't know what to do with myself. I had a popcicle and waited for Grey's Anatomy to start (and might I say, what an awesome episode). What a Thursday night.
