Shots!

If Isabelle understood what was going to happen when we went to the doctor's office today, I would imagine this would be the face she would have made.

Today was our 2 month checkup with the pediatrician. Everything looks great...she weighed in at 11 pounds 5 ounces and 21 1/2 inches long. According to the doctor, she's now 'short and chubby!' :) Her weight is in the 75th percentile, and her length is in the 25th.

After the exam came the dreaded shots. Luckily, there were only three instead of the four that I had anticipated. Hooray for the Rotovirus vaccine being in the form of drops! The screaming was not as bad as I had expected, and Daddy was there to hold her down so that I didn't have to be the bad guy! The nurse was speedy and it was all over fairly quickly. Now we wait and watch for any possible side effects...so far, so good.
