Doctors are NOT fun!

Jocelyn had her 18 month appointment today. It was a bit late, since we switched insurance with Todd's new job. She now weighs 24 pounds (40th percentile), up from 20 lbs 11oz at 15 months. She is 32 1/4 inches tall (60th percentile), up from 31.5 last visit. She also got 3 more shots. She knew they were coming this time. After the doctor left she was in a panic to leave. She cried the whole time until the nurse came in (which seemed to take forever). Two in one arm, one in the other. The hardest she ever cries is with shots. I just want to cry right along with her. I feel so horrible holding her little arm so that they can hurt her. I know it's for a good reason, though, but it's still horrible! She has had 28 shots since she has been born. That seems like SO many! The good news is that she doesn't have to have any more until she starts Kindergarten!! Thank goodness for that--and please, let the time go slowly!
