2 month doctor visit

Today Gloria went for her 2 month doctor visit. Here are her stats. She now weighs 13 lbs. 1 oz. (95th percentile). She is 23 1/4 inches long (75th percentile) and her head circumference is 16 inches (80th percentile). The doctor said she is doing great with nothing for us to be concerned about. Gloria does prefer looking to her right so her head is a bit flatter on that side so we need to start propping her on her left side while she's sleeping and try to get her to look to the left when she's playing by making all of the exciting things be on that side. She got 3 shots today - 2 in her left thigh and one in her right. She did cry right after the first one went in and cried during the remaining two. I started crying before the nurse even gave her the first shot. Afterwards, I nursed her and she calmed right down. The nurse said that Gloria would probably be really sleepy today and it seems like she has been. She slept on the way home and stayed sleeping until 1:30 - a two hour nap - in my arms of course :) Then she ate a little, played for an hour, ate a bit more and then took another two hour nap, but not as deep of a sleep as earlier. While she was playing this afternoon, Gloria made sure that I knew she was okay and was telling me how happy she was. Take a look (and a listen)!

Gloria's next appointment is Wednesday, May 21 - she'll be 4 months, 1 week, and 1 day old. She'll have to get more shots then. Hopefully she does just as well as she did today.
