2 month appointment

Harper had her 2 month appointment today. I wanted Steve to come, but he had to work. She weighs 11 lbs and is 23 inches long. Her head circumference is 15.75 in (my doctor never tells me what percentile she's in and I always forget to ask). Harper was so happy and just smiled at the nurse the whole time she was weighing her and checking her temperature and stuff. It was cute!

Then the doctor came in and looked at her and said she looked good.

Then for the sad, painful part. Two nurses came in to give her shots. I had to hold her legs down while they gave them. It was so sad. They were on each side of her and counted to 3 and then poked her poor little thighs. Immediately her face went bright red, she got the saddest look on her face, and burst into tears. One nurse had to give her 2 shots, so she got 3 total. It was the most heart-breaking thing ever. She calmed down not long after they got her band aids on and I could hold her.

She is smiling at Brinlie in this picture.

After her appointment, we met the Clarks (for some reason the kids did not have school today), mom, and Monica at The Olive Garden for Brinlie's birthday lunch. It was delish! Then Brinlie chose to come home with Harper and me for the rest of the day until her party. She wanted to play dress ups with Harper, but Harper was just not in the mood. She was a little crabby, but then fell asleep. So Brinlie got some of Harper's clothes and played dress ups with our build-a-bears.

When Steve got home from work and got showered, we headed out to the Clark's house for Brinlie's birthday party. It was a good time, as usual! Brinlie is 5 years old. Happy Birthday Brin!
