Two Month Appointment

Today Ruby had her two month well-baby check up. This visit also included three shots and an oral vaccine. She really was not a happy baby for this visit -- but that may have had something to do with the doctor running way behind schedule. First, the nurse measured and weighed her. She is now 23 inches long and 12 pounds, 3 ounces. So, she continues to grow at an amazing rate! And then the doctor checked her out and declared her to be perfectly healthy. Finally, at the end of the visit, Ruby was shot. First the nurse gave her the oral vaccine, which she took like a champ. And then she got one shot in one leg and two more shots in the other leg. Ruby screamed for a couple of minutes and before we left the doctor's office, she was asleep.

She got the shots about 3:15 and slept for a few hours, but now she seems to be acting more like herself. Jason is busy changing her diaper (each time he gets a new one on her, she fills it up for him ...) But, I bet she is still pretty tired. Ruby had a long day. So we'll feed her, bathe her and put her to bed and hope she gets a good night's sleep!

We will post some pictures later!
