Shots, Shots, and more Shots

One of the shots

Not a happy camper!


So today was Cayden's 2 month doctor's appointment and that meant he had to have his immunizations. This consisted of four different vaccines, three which were given in shot form and one given in oral form. Thankfully Matthew was able to go with us because when it came time to give the shots I was unable to stay in the room because I didn't want to watch the needles. I guess I am pretty weak :)! He cried a lot but was a trooper as he did really well. Today he has had an off day as I am sure he isn't feeling great. Poor guy :(. Thankfully I finally got him to take a nap because he was pretty inconsolable. Also, we found out that Cayden is 25 3/4 inches long (99.48% of growth percentile based on length for age). He weighs 11 pounds 8 oz (43.49% of growth percentile based on weight for age). His head circumference is 15.51 inches (34.39% of growth percentile based on head circumference for age. So our problem now is that he wears three month clothes which fit the length but are too big around the waist :)! He is doing great though and is very healthy so we praise God for that!
