Dr. Visit

A few days ago Nelle had an apt with Dr. Jed. She weighs 13.8 pounds (about the 50 percentile) and is 25 inches long (75 percentile). She had to get more shots and wasn't happy about that as you would imagine but she really didn't do that bad. We played her her favorite song; Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson as she was getting them and it calmed her down pretty quick. The rest of the day you could tell she just didn't feel very good as with the next day when she had a fever all day. But its all over now and I'm sure she doesn't remember. Dr. Jed told us its almost time to introduce food to her which is exciting but a little scary. Were just not looking forward to all of the messes.

awww. i hate shots. i swear it's harder on the parents than the kids! you're going to enjoy introducing her to foods. the funny smells, the funny smells coming from the diapers now, and the MESS! :) but you also get the joy of feeding her, and seeing her cute faces as she processes what she is tasting. so much fun. gabe actually liked rice cereal made with plain water the best. once he tried squash and sweet potato's though, that was all he wanted! (start with veggies first, or she'll never want them after she's tried those yummy bananas!)
