Well today was not Emme's lucky day. She had to go to the doctor for her 2 month well checkup visit and get her first shot. She was so happy when we arrived because there is a gigantic fish tank with all these colorful fish to look at in the waiting room. She even let the doctor poke and prod her without getting fussy because she was so busy checking the place out. Each room at the office is painted in a bright color. Then there are pictures on the walls that are pretty interesting. Today we were in the brick red room with pictures of safari animals. I think Emme can actually see things more clearly now at a distance because she was intrigued by everything . Emme is growing well and the doctor said she was such a mover (rolling back and forth on the table to look at things) and couldn't believe how interested she was in everything. THEN it all ended when she got the shot. She went from happy to hell in less than 2.3 seconds. Needless to say there were no smiles after that. She CRIED all the way home- sad, whimpering cries. She has been comfort nursing all afternoon and finally just fell asleep. We are going to go get some infant Tylenol and take a nice walk later with Tom and Jerry when she wakes up. Thanks to Grammy J for the St. Patty's Day onesie and all the other stuff Emme got yesterday on our little shopping trip.
