More shots

May 2, 2007

Today we had to go to the doctor for Jack's 4 month well-baby visit. He had to have 3 immunizations and his rotovirus medicine. Dr Cochran again said that he was "just perfect". He weighed 12 pounds and 11 ounces and was 25 1/4 inches long. So that makes him pretty skinny. Dr Cochran said not to worry about it, that he's making up his weight with his length and head. Hopefully that means that he will be tall like Jonathan instead of short like me. The nurse got ready to give his shots and he was smiling at me and then she stuck him. There was like a 15 second pause with Jack silent and eyes wide. He looked at me like, "WHAT WAS THAT?!!". Then...the cry. I picked him right up and gave him a bottle and he didn't make another peep. What a big boy. He fell asleep with his bunny on the way home. When he woke up he was in a great mood. He's laughing a lot now. Everything goes right in his mouth so he gets pretty irritated at the toys on his exercaucer because he can't get them off and in his mouth. I feel like the most blessed person in the world to have such a wonderful baby.
