We took a ride to Westchester pretty early Sunday, so that we could have an extra long visit with Piper. She was really mellow. This was a nice change from her crazy behavior over the past couple of weeks. The doctors feel like they were trying to ween her too fast from the narcotics, so they bumped the methadone back up and are bringing it down more slowly, this time. Poor little squirt. She still doesn’t really seem like herself. Part of the reason, I’m sure, is because they are giving her muscle relaxers, to try to mitigate the violent cycles of the withdrawals. She also seemed a bit puffy, today.
We ended up having a really great visit with her. Especially, I had a lot of good one-on-one time with her, since Reagan was taking a nap for part of the visit. It was nice for me, since normally I don’t get to have the kind of visits where I can just hog Piper the whole time. It is going to be tough, not to see her for so long, while we are away. But hopefully, she will be more like herself, when we return.

Cute 🙂
saw your comment regarding Sonia Rykiel carrier bags. The bright pink bags are larger than the pink ones. Its all about size.
ZT
I like the “thumbs up” picture of her. Hopefully things will be eaiser on her now – withdrawls.
Who made you guys the Wee-Wonderful doll that Reagan is laying on? I want to see the whole thing! I love those little dolls and have made dozens of them for friends and family.
@michelle: Michelle, Camille Dumas-Davis made it. She sent it out as a gift to Piper, when Piper was sick. I actually got some really good photos of her playing with it, that I need to post.
