Sophia had her 1 year pediatrician visit last Friday. She is 29 and1/4 inches tall, 21 lbs. That puts her smack dab in the middle- not too big, not too small.
During the visit, Sophia impressed everyone by walking into the exam room herself- everyone smiled at her. Being wary of strangers and not quite sure of what was going on, Sophia did not return any of the smiles.
Sadly, Sophia got 2 shots. One in the leg and one in her arm. That was awful. You know its bad when the nurse tells you to hold your child tight and restrain her arms and legs- this one's going to hurt. (um, the medical field NEVER admits that something's going to hurt...I thought that was the rule...) So, Sophie cried and cried, but then it was over. She cried again when I took the band-aids off that night.
Then, the real fun began- vaccine fevers! Whoo hoo! I'm sure people thought The Husband and I were crazy- touching Sophie's head, her arms, her neck...putting our lips on her head to see how hot she was. We couldn't leave that poor kid alone. It took a looong time (and a call to the afterhours dr. service) to get the fever down. Plus, I think it made Sophie a little funky- she really didn't want to eat all weekend and she didn't sleep well. The Husband and I are sort of zombies today. Coffee is my friend.....hmmmmmm delicious coffeeeeeeeee.....
But other than that, Sophia is good. I will post pictures from Easter in the next few days. Mah beh-beh had the cutest little easter dress on...and then she had the most fun ever later that day. Wait till you see.
