skim milk ??

Lucy had her One-Year check up and when she took to the scale..well.. you could say she came up a little short. The numbers read 14 lbs 14 oz. What! How can this be so? She eats everything in sight. So the nurse led me to another scale and once again the numbers read 14 lbs 14 oz. Those hard numbers tell a sad... sad truth of underweightness. It is hard to know why this is so. My friend questioned the quality of milk I produce "maybe it's skim milk" she says. But my diet that makes that milk is far from skimpy. So I would like to blame it on the fact that she has a Super Hero style metabalism that one day will make her a very lucky girl. What ever the reason, I guess we call her little lucy, little bird, little peanut and little miss for good reason......the gal is a little one. So what do we do?? Dr. Instructions are a high fat high calorie diet. So I make sure she gets a large sized ice cream on a regular basis (we save big greasy hamburgers for special occasions). She is very fond of this diet. Ice cream makes her very happy. So we will see in the next month or so if our little bird turns plump. There is a small chance you may not recognize her...but I doubt we will be that successful. Wish us luck. :)
