No More Needles!!



This morning Kyra had her 2 month checkup. She now weighs 11lbs 2 1/2oz and is 23 1/2 inches long. She is right about in the middle on both weight and length. She's a little ahead of average on most of the developmental markers and the doctor thinks her umbilical hernia is going to heal up all on it's own. She was SUCH a good brave girl! First of all, it took a while waiting to get in for her appointment (they usually run late, but are so good and never rush you, I don't really mind). Then, after her exam, she had to have THREE SHOTS for her immunizations. One was a Polio, TTP, Hep B combo shot, one was her MMR and I can't even remember what the other one was! She only cried during the actual injections and for about a minute after. They did at least do the first two together with two ladies doing it to get it over with. She has been a little fussy on and off today though and she's got a big blue crayon band-aid on one thigh and a flag band-aid on the other.
After her appt., we met Auntie Amy and Hazel at the dog park with Echo and Radar and did the loop before we met Phil for lunch at the Subway. We did our grocery shopping today too since she mostly just wanted to hang out in the carrier anyway, and therefore I couldn't do a whole lot that didn't involve holding the baby. She did sit in her BebePod chair for a little while and played with her toy. We also experimented with some 3-6 months clothes today. The onesie fit great, except for being a little baggy around the middle, but the pants were a little too long and MUCH too baggy at the waist. Guess it's going to be mostly dresses for a while!
