Just Ducky

Today our little model looks just..............well.................Ducky! He also looks very happy! I'm looking at this picture and thinking that maybe his little legs aren't quite long enough for that outfit yet, but he looks darn cute none the less!

A quick update regarding Poppa. He went yesterday afternoon and got his Holter Monitor put on. It is a small box about the size of a stud-finder which he clips on his belt. There are five wires going from it to various points on his chest - some quite far from his heart. I wondered how he would sleep last night, but he says he didn't even notice it - and it was still attached this morning. As soon as he got home from the hospital (having it attached to him) yesterday, he shovelled and blew snow to see what reaction that would cause on the little monitor. Of course, we have no way of knowing that information since we do not get to see any of the info it is recording.

He seems to be feeling fine and hasn't experienced any of the symptoms that we now associate with a heart arrythmia - so hopefully that episode is over for a while. He has to go back this afternoon to drop off the monitor. Thankfully for two whole days now - it has not snowed! And, indeed I am thankful for small mercies.
