10 Week Update - First Immunizations

10 Week Picture



Milestones:

First Wedding:  On Saturday (the 10th) Addison attended her first Wedding and Reception.  The night before, we went out and found a really cute pink polka dot dress just for the occasion (see picture above).  The bride (my best friend) actually went with us to pick it out.  Addison looked sooo cute!  The photographer took lots of pictures that we will post later once they are available.

First immunizations :(   Tuesday of this week was Addie's 2 month well baby appointment.  It was supposed to be closer to turning 8 weeks old but there was a mixup in scheduling.  Anywho... Addison received her immunizations at this appointment.  We had the pacifier in Addie's mouth when the first shot went into her leg.  The paci immediatly was spit out, but no crying.  Then on the second shot, her eyes got really big and her arms/legs extended out like she was startled, and she made a SHREEEK noise with a pouty face.  On the third, and final shot, she began to cry.  After getting the okay from the nurse, I immediately picked Addison up and cuddled her.  She seemed to pout a little more, but she was much happier!  Side effects have been minimal.  From the appointment until today, her temperature has gone up and down but really nothing serious.  She's been a bit fussier than normal, but really not too bad.  I'm just glad the appointment is over and she won't be receiving shots again for another two months!!


LEGS:  Addie has always had very long and STRONG legs.  Her big thing lately is to kick, kick, KICK!  It seems like those legs are always moving!  Daddy says, "sometimes those kicks actually hurt"! ha ha  It's really cute to sit and watch her in action.

Growing At Addie's Well Baby appointment this week, she was measured/weighed.  She is above 90% in EVERY category!!!  Her length, weight, and head circum. are all in the 90th percentile!  Again, the doctor reassured us that the weight and head are high because of her length and there is nothing to be concerned about.  In fact, the doctor said she is impressed with her growth and said to keep it up!!

Hands:  It seems like Addison is really interested in her hands lately.  She will make fists and stare at them for several minutes.  Often, she will make herself cross-eyed trying to look at them.  What's even funnier is when the burp cloth is over her chest and her hands get trapped under it... it's like she can't figure out where they went!

Addie loves to play hide and seek with her
hands and the burp cloth!
