Dr. Visits

We had two Dr. visits this week, both planned, so everyone stay calm. The first appointment was for our little Sophie. She went to see Dr. Niles at Castle Peak Veterinary Clinic on Monday for her spaying. Nick dropped her off before work and Niles called by lunchtime to say Sophie had done well. We went to pick her up after work and we were warned that she was a little "out of it" because of the morphine. Apparently she had spent her day after surgery resting, being peaceful and calm. However, once they brought Sophie out to us, she instantly started whining and continued the entire way home, that night, really any time she thought she could milk it and get some extra attention. Silly little girl, she was right. She knew exactly how to play us, and 5 days later, she continues to milk it. Yesterday was Sophie's 3rd birthday, so we had a little party for her. Somehow, she found the strength (sarcasm) to participate in her party. The birthday dinner was a plate of mexican pizza from Mi Pueblo and some nasty-looking Beneful Beef Stew (supposedly) stuff. Below are pictures of Sophie and her daddy, and Sophie sharing her birthday fun with Wrigley and Rusty.
The other appointment this week was a check-up for the baby. We went to see Dr. Kohn yesterday morning. They did blood work and also checked the baby's heartbeat using a Doppler-machine. It was weird hearing the baby's heartbeat, which was so much faster than mine, which we could also hear. No other big news from that appointment. Next appointment is Dec. 2, still sticking with a due date of May 20.
