four month checkup

Today Hadley, Grandma, and I went to Kaiser for Hadley's four month well visit.
While we were waiting for Dr. Reid, my Mom guessed that Hadley would be in the 50th percentile for height and the 90th for weight.. she was spot on.
Our little butterball is fifteen pounds, fourteen ounces and twenty four and a half inches long.
Dr. Reid told us the extra chub is perfect for Hadley's brain development.
Next up were vaccines. Sad.
The first one was an oral vaccine, Hadley did not like the taste one bit. The nurse said it is the breast fed babies that hate this one the most. We just did a little at a time because she was so upset. Next I was asked to lay Hadley on the table and "hug hold" her arms while she got the two shots in her thighs.. right before the second shot was administered, the nurse told me "this one will take her breath away." It did. Heartbreaking.
We quickly went out to the car where I nursed the poor girl to sleep, and she was nothing but happy the rest of the day (so far).

For Lunch, Kendyll and Lindsay came for a visit and brought a delicious lunch from Pizza Azzuro. It was SO nice the catch up with Lindsay in this little window of time after her wedding but before she leaves for her three week honeymoon to Europe! We will miss you!
Thank you for visiting us!

Hadley is sleeping peacefully as I type, good thing because we have a busy evening ahead of us; bowling then Chris' first softball playoff game.
Cornerstone is UNDEFEATED! woo!
