This little booger went to the doctor yesterday and aside from the shots had a pretty good time. She weighs 12 pounds 12.5 ounces {30th percentile} and was 25 inches long {95th percentile}. Can you believe she’s almost off the charts for length? Tall and skinny sounds good to me.
We had some concerns about a knot of her foot, but it’s just baby fat. Everything else was perfect and Dr. Darby was really impressed with our head-holding skills. It turns out, we can start baby food any day now. I’ll be adding squash and carrots to the grocery cart tonight and I’m sure there will be a funny post to follow.
She had to get four shots, two in each leg, and that was by far the worst part. Thank goodness our SD was there, because mommy seriously teared up. Maybe it’s because she never, ever cries, but hearing her wail like that is awfully hard!
The best part of the trip? That white tissue paper they stretch out on the exam table. This girl was in heaven. She balled up four feet of paper and slobbered on it and stretched until there wasn’t much left. SD thinks maybe we need a roll of that at our house.
And for those of you who will inevitably ask, yes, Gran made the bubble. Adorable, right?
