and by she, I mean me - ok, not really - but I came pretty close as the nurse had to poke my little girl in the thigh with her 2 month vaccinations. Fortunately, we had a nice relaxing day around the house, joined by Auntie Laura. I realized that we don't really have any photos of me and the babe, so my sis snapped a few while we were playing. I also put Adi's first 'real outfit' on today - something other than a sleeper, which is kind of fun! Here are a few of the shots taken by Lola.
So fun playing with Adilyn!
Now for the real fun - our Dr. visit today. Adilyn was a champ, as always during the general exam portion of the appointment. Here are her stats:
Height: 20 & 1/4"
Head Size: 36.5cm
Weight: 7 lbs 9.5oz
That's right - all of those feedings are paying off, she's gaining weight beautifully! The only one of those stats that makes it on the growth charts is her head size - which is good according to the Dr. She was also very impressed that Adi has been sleeping at least 5 hours through the night! I am equally impressed, proud of and thankful for that!
Today she had to get her 2 month shots also. She honestly did REALLY well - she's a tough girl! She only cried a little when the first needle pricked her and then again for the others. Though her first cry was a bit delayed - as she spit her nuk out in a hurry! After that, she calmed down VERY quickly and was ok as I was getting her dressed again. The nurses were impressed and were nice enough to let me stay in the exam room to feed her after to calm her down a little more. Overall, we walked out and you wouldn't have known that the little tike just got poked - what a champ! Mommy, on the other hand was anxious going into it since Dan had to go meet our accountant. I felt nervous and knew that I would HATE watching her get poked, and...I did - I almost cried when I saw the first one go in and had to look away while trying to reassure Adi.
Here are the 'battle wounds'.
Quite the eventful day - ended with a wonderful evening of singing at our Church. I think Adi likes the music like her Mommy - she was lulled right to sleep!
So cute! Glad she is growing so well. Can't wait to meet her tomorrow :-)
