2 month check up

Monday, May 11th was a day I've been dreading since Reagan was born......2 month shots!!
So we met Joel at the Doctor's office so he could hold my hand while I held Reagan!

Before I get to the shots here are her two month stats
Weight: 12 lbs 2 oz - 75%

Length: 22.5 in - 50%

Head: Can't remember the exact measurement - 90% !

So she gained 4 pounds and 2.5 inches in two months and has a BIG head - daddy says it is because she is so smart! Thankfully I don't recall it being that big during delivery, haha!
Now for the shots, she had one oral vaccination and 4 shots - two in each sweet little thigh. She really liked the taste of the oral vaccination, I think they give that one first to distract them! Then the nurse got the four shots ready and I leaned over Reagan's face and didn't look at her poor little legs. I just sushhhed her while the nurse gave her the shots like lightning - I swear she was done in like 5 seconds. Reagan did cry but it wasn't the awful crying I had expected, she actually cried harder and louder when they had to undress her to get her measurements. About a minute or two after it was all over she was smiling and happy again. I was so proud!!

We got home and Reagan was the happy go lucky little girl we love all night long, she slept like a rock and slept pretty much the entire day at day care too. Hopefully the 4 month shots can be just as good!

Here is our sweet little girl and two of the four little band aids where the shots were.
