Zoe the photographer

Zoe has always been into looking at pictures on our computer but recently she has wanted to take them too.  Right now she is using my digital camera until we can buy her one of those kiddy ones that are unbreakable.  Just wanted to share some of her work :)

She definitely has a recognizable style.  Maybe we should start selling her work.

Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week

1 in 100 (or ~40,000) babies each year are born with a congenital heart defect.  Zoe is one of those and it is my job to take care of these little ones, so it is near a dear to our hearts.  So last week was CHD awareness week and our parental support group made sure we had a fun activity for the kiddos on Valentines Day.  They arranged for each “heart” child and their sibling to paint a heart shaped box at a potty studio.  We had such fun even if Zoe had more fun socializing than painting.

IMG_2301 IMG_2302IMG_2305 Our first dentist appointment went well on the 2nd.  Zoe cried for most of it, but it was that whiny cry that stopped immediately when they said all finished.  Teeth look healthy, 10 on top and 10 on bottom.  We even bought some cool chocolate ice cream flavor toothpaste…..I know, sounds disgusting, but it actually tastes like ice cream and better yet, she likes to brush with it.  Next appointment in 6 months.
