Ramblings of a Crazy Woman

The very 1st movie Penny ever saw at a movie theatre was "The Hunger Games" during a Mommy & Me screening this past April. Her second movie was the Julia Robert's Snow White film, "Mirror, Mirror." Her third film was "Madagascar 3." Today, continuing her animated theme, Penny took Papa and I to see the Disney/Pixar film "Brave" yesterday. Best animated hair ever!

TGIF! Time to put away Penny's 3 month old clothing and to baby proof the house from our little crawler! She is too tall to fit in her 3 month old clothes. So time to bring out 6 month sizes and 9 month PJ's! My little girl is growing like a green bean! Not only that she has started to crawl. Sh is thrusting her body forward with cute little scoots. It won't be long before she is all over the house I think!

Happy 1st Father's Day to my hubby. Penny had a day planned out for her Papa which started with letting him sleep in, followed by pie at The House of Pies, and a movie, MADAGASCAR 3 at The Americana. Penny got her Papa a rare Vinylmation as a gift. Now Pape finally has Pongo and his second Park Series is now complete!

This weekend Penny meet the rest of the 81st Street Gang. She meet Danielle and Jon. Danielle sure looks comfortable with Penny. Penny does need a friend. Hint. Hint. Wink. Wink.

Penny's daycare celebrated Father's Day with FUDGE! No not the candy, but instead they opened up the daycare to Penny's Friends, Uncles, Dad, Grandfathe's and Everyone else! At first we didn't think Dad could come so Penny called up her Uncle Sandy and Mom brought her co-worker, Dino but at the very last minute Dad got off of work early and made it. All of Penny's guys helped her celebrate Father's Day with an ice cream social at daycare. All the men seemed to like the ice cream. Not only did they have ice cream but tons of toppings. All three of Penny's guests had more than one serving of ice-cream, well, except Mom. But mom did find the ice cream to be extra yummy. Not sure what those daycare folks do to their ice cream but everyone was enjoying themselves. Penny gave Daddy a mug she made and also a photo of her making the mug.

Today Penny went to see Dr. Boxstein for her 6 mos. check up. He said she was progressing well. She now weights 15 lbs, 6oz. She is 26.75 inches tall and has a head circumference of 17 inches. She is our tall skinny gal! She also received 4 vaccinations, 3 shots and one drinkable vaccination. Dr gave her a prescription for vitamins and Floride. Now that she is older its a more painful for mom to watch her get shots because I know she can really feel and remember them unlike when she was a baby. Luckily Penny is a good sport and after a few hugs was a-okay again. She is such a good girl! Here is a picture of her at the doctor's office. I like to call this one "How many shots are you gonna give me?"

BEFORE AFTER

Happy 6 month birthday Ms. Penny! It's an honor and a pleasure being your mother. I love you kiddo!

Today hubby and I went to Ventura County, to Paliuli Gardens to watch my friend, Cindy get married. She was married once before when her two boys were very little. The marriage didn't last very long and essentially she was a single mom. A few years ago she told a friend, when asked about dating, "Why can't a guy just show up at my doorstep with a bottle of wine?" Literally, that happened a year later. Mark showed up with a bottle of wine and asked her out. The rest is history. Which brings us to the wedding. It was very heartfelt and whimsical, if not a bit hippy. Cindy looked like she was floating on a cloud. Normally a happy, smiley lady she wore an even bigger grin on her wedding day. I was so glad that she found her prince after all these years. She truly deserved to find him. Happy Wedding Day Cindy and Mark!

Penny and I just smashed some Pennies at the LA ZOO. Two more for her collection!

I get home from work tonight and my Moses is covered in hives and he is huffing. It's so bad he looked like the State Puff Marshmellow Dog or rather, a St Bernard. I guessed he had an allergic reaction to his 3 vaccination shots today with daddy. So I rush him over to emergency care (after frantically calling twice for the address) and with my baby in one hand and my fur baby in the other i walk into the lobby and scream for someone to "pls help my baby!" The lady at the front desk looks at me and asks, "Which one?" I put my heart attack on hold for a second and proceeded to laugh out loud. I caught my breath and said "My dog baby, help my dog baby!"....2 shots later he is okay. Although the lady who came out of another room crying uncontrollaby had me quite worried until I saw MoMo again. Whew what a night!

Today, Paramount Pictures is 100 years old! It is such a big milestone as we are one of teh oldest studios and the only one left in Hollywood. There is a big celebration at work today. They have filled up the water tank and the backlot is booming with activity. Should be a fun Friday!
