We did it. We made it through. I say we because it was just as hard for me as it was for him. I can still hear his cry in my head and it breaks my heart. I have NEVER heard him cry like that before. It really hurt him. He was sleeping when they gave him the two shots in both of his legs. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Lord, for letting him go right back to sleep after he cried. If he hadn't recovered so fast I would have been in tears myself. Why is it so hard to be a parent? Why can't it all just be sweet cheeks, kisses and coos? Heck, I'd rather wake up a million times a night than go through getting shots again.
Did I mention that we need to get two more shots next month? Yup .... I'm sad already. :(
Anyway, moving on to bigger and better things ... William weighs 12 lbs. 8 oz. and is 25 inches long! He is actually 100th percentile for height! Where did he get it from? Isaac is average for height and I am below average. Silliness. This boy is going to be taller than me when he turns 2 years old!

Glad he's doing so well! I never thought i'd be that mom who cried over shots, but i nearly did the first couple times. It gets better, though - it was just a normal cry for Kaylen's six-month checkup and she got over it quickly. She even gave the nurse a teary smile.
sooooo like I said today I really enjoy reading your blog and nominated you for the liebster blog award on my blog. You should definitely check it out!
