My precious baby girl, you are already 2 months old. Does time have to go by so fast with you & your brother? You continue to be healthy & amaze everyone. I took you to the pediatrician this morning for a checkup. Our regular MD was on maternity leave but you still smiled & cooed. Stryker enjoyed goofing around in the room but took Coco quickly to the waiting room when they were ready to give you shots. Before shots, you took an oral medication. The nurse was surprised you swallowed it without a fuss. That's my sweet girl! Next up, a shot in each thigh. You cried as soon as the shots were administered but was consoled within a minute of being held. Such a tough girl. It was time for the park. Coco & I took y'all to the Vestavia park. You slept in the sling the entire time as well as the majority of the afternoon. The shots started affecting you around 6pm with a low grade fever & uncomfortableness. You still tried to smile through the night. Melts my heart.
