4 Month Well Baby

Tara had her check up today, it all went well even with waking her up early from her nap to get there on time. I hate waking her up when she still needs more sleep! She was in a great mood until the doctor came in. He is a wonderful doctor, I really like him, but Tara didn't! I guess she already has stranger anxiety which he said usually doesn't start until 6 months. He was impressed with how she noticed him and kept her eyes on him. I tried turning her around, you know the Out of Sight Out of Mind trick, but that didn't work. She just turned her little head around to keep an eye on him! Poor doc! I felt kinda bad for him but I know he understands! So she looks healthy. She weighed in at 14 pounds and 12 ounces, she gained a few ounces since her WICO appt. She was 24 1/2 inches long which is a little shorter than what she was measured at her WICO appt, so someone measured wrong!!! Tara also had to get some shots, poor girl! I hate giving my kids shots but I'm just to scared not to give the shots to them when we travel so much and are living overseas. Over here we do hear about people have measles and mumps and all that stuff you don't see in the states. So I just pray that God will keep my little girl safe! Right now she is napping in her crib with a dose of Tylenol in her helping with the leg aches she probably has. I hope she gets a good nap in so that she feels good tonight.
