Brave little boy!

Today is Victor's two month birthday, so he had to get his big boy shots today. I couldn't sleep for being nervous about it, but Victor didn't have that problem--I could barely get him to wake up and eat something before going to the doctor! He woke up in the car, though, and had fun going through all the diapers we had in his diaper bag once we got to the doctor's office. The doctor was running late, though, and he fell asleep before she got there then pretty much slept through her entire examination. Once the nurse came in, though, he was in trouble. He got an oral vaccine first, which woke him up a bit, and then he got three shots--one in the left leg, two in the right, bang bang bang. He bled and cried, but quieted down much faster than I was expecting. He still wanted his binky, though. (Have I mentioned this? He doesn't like pacifiers for the most part except for every once in a while when he is a particular type of sleepy fussy or when he needs comforting.) Even the nurse commented about what a "mellow cry" he has and said we were really lucky--yes, I know! ;) Poor baby got three bandaids and blood all over his daddy's shirt, but managed to fall asleep in the car on the way home. I think this was going to be a sleepy day for him anyways, so hopefully he'll sleep any ill effects away. The only problem is that the tylenol we had purchased in anticipation of today was recalled a couple of days ago, and the pharmacy still hasn't replaced it yet. Hopefully if he does get a fever we'll be able to find someplace that has something!

Other than that, though, he's still doing really well. Up to 12 lbs 5 oz, which means that I have begun washing his 6 month sizes because most 3 month sizes say "up to 12.5 lbs." Next checkup is at 4 months!
