Missouri Storms

These last few weeks have been filled with good ole' Missouri thunderstorms and lighting. Fortunately our basement has only had a bit of water this year. With the lighting we have not been so lucky. Wednesday evening as the next storm was rolling in, lighting struck near the house. It spared the electricity but not the cable. Having digital cable than for internet service was our demise. When it surged the house it blew out a tv and fried the computer. That being said there will be no new pictures or videos until we are able to get a new one. Words will have to suffice for now.
Chloe is doing well. She went on June 10th for her two month checkup and shots. She was 11 pounds and 23 inches long, 75% for both. She took her shots like a champ...screaming and crying. We didn't watch the actual shots but tried our best to soothe her during and after. She had a bit of thrush that we got meds for to administer at home. After the ten day regimen it hadn't gone away completely, so Del took her back to the doctor. She got another medicine at the office that coated her mouth in bright blue. It looked as if she had eaten an ink pen. She wasn't a real happy camper about that visit either.
She is starting to smile alot. She is also cooing and making all kinds of cute baby noises. She has figured out how to scoot on her back. When we put her down at night, by the time she wakes up hungry she has scooted from the middle of the crib to the end, pushing her head against the rails. This seems to irritate her and she gets really cranky and persistent to be picked up when this happens. When you finally get there with the next bottle she looks at you as if to say, "What took you so long?"
Next week is the last week Del works till school starts. He will be home with her for six full weeks. I am afraid he may go a bit crazy. When he starts back we hope to have a new sitter. The one we have now is not working for us. We have a couple of good prospects and hopefully on of the will work out.
Hopefully we will be able to replace our computer soon. Home owners insurance my help us some in replacing both the computer and tv. Until then....
