Not So Bad

Well, we went to the doctor's office today, and it wasn't so bad. Elena weighs 10 lbs 7 oz, so she's still gaining roughly 2 pounds a month. She's 21 5/8 inches long, so still short, too! :) But they said she was still following her curve, so nothing to worry about.

What I was worried about was the shots she had to get. She screams like crazy when they look in her ears, I couldn't imagine what she was going to do when they actually gave her shots. But the nurse was so fast, I hardly noticed. Elena noticed, of course, and expressed her displeasure in a very loud voice. But she calmed down pretty quickly, and was asleep before we got in the car. She had a rough morning at daycare, but after sleeping all afternoon she has been all smiles and coos. so, overall, not such a bad day at the doctors!

Speaking of smiles and coos, I got home today with her after a late meeting and laid her in the bouncy seat while I made dinner. I was cracking up in the kitchen because she was just takling and talking to her waterfall. So I finally couldn't stand it anymore, and I took a video of her with my cheapy camera. The video isn't great, but the audio is priceless, so make sure you turn up your volume! :)
