What a Day! 9-1-09

Yesterday was a very eventful day.

Little Man stayed home with his daddy as he took him to meet me at the doctor’s office for his 4 month shots. Everything is going great with Little Man. He is now in the 75th percentile with both his height and weight. At his two month appointment he was in the 75th percentile for weight and 10th percentile for height. We are excited our son will not be a midget. (Just a little joke between Hubby and I – we will love and adore our son if he is a midget, a giant or somewhere in between)

Of course with all the milestone well visits, there come the dreaded shots. There was an older boy in the next room screaming as if Michael were visiting b/c he didn’t want his shots. I’m blaming the parents for planting this fear in him. (As a parent I have this honor) Little Man did great until after his stabbings. (Have you seen how they do this??) I would have screamed too! Of course, mama and daddy comforted him right away as we got him dressed.

After his appointment we grabbed something to eat in celebration of our 2 year wedding anniversary and ran a couple errands at the grocery store and Wal-Mart. By the time we got home, Little Man was screaming b/c of his shots. He did the same thing for his two-month shots except I missed work the next day. Luckily this time his screaming just lasted until the night. This morning he was up and chattering away with his goos and daaas. Hubby thinks he is saying daddy but yeah well he isn’t. lol.

To calm him from his screaming last night my mama and I took turns, as Hubby and my Daddy worked on our water line that the cows busted, walking him around outside. Life on a farm! Ain’t it grand? When Hubby came in he asked me to come into the bathroom w/him. I thought I was in trouble b/c my mouth tends to end me up there but I wasn’t. Apparently the water threw up some Batesburg Fire Ants (they deserve to be proper nouns) and he lay in them. It looks like his skin taste the best around his waistline. Poor thing!
