Today Cadence went in for her 2 month check-up, which meant a round of shots :(. She actually did really well, she really liked the oral vaccine for rotavirus, the first shot she didn't flinch at all, and then the last two she got really red and just screamed for a little while. I picked her up and fed her a little, and she calmed down and proceeded to sleep for about 2.5 hours.
Her weight was a little low (11.5 lbs, 36th %ile) while her length (24 inches) and head circumference (40.5 cm) were in the upper 90 percentile range. Dr. Bigham said he's not overly concerned about the weight at this point because she's eating well and her brain development is going well, but we're supposed to come back in a month for a weight check to see if she can pick up the progress there.
This week has gone by really slowly, probably because James has been gone so much, and although he's on duty this weekend, he will be around more often which will be nice. Cadence is still as happy and smiley as ever, and I feel so blessed to be a mother to such a wonderful little girl!
