4-Month Well-Baby Checkup

Yesterday, Sofia and I went to Fargo for her 4-month checkup and immunizations. As usual, I was so impressed with how she handles going to the doctor. She does so much better than I would. She now weighs 15 lb. 3 oz. and is 24 inches long! The doctor said she's thriving. While the doctor looked her over, Sofia was just talking away, telling the doctor her stories. It was pretty cute. Then, the nurse came in to do the immunizations. First, I got a flu shot. (I took one for Team Hanna, too.) Then, it was Sofia's turn. Before it happened, Sofia was smiling, laughing, and talking. Then, the nurse gave her the first one. Sofia gave this stunned look of, "Why did you just do that?" and started crying. I felt so bad, but I think the nurse felt worse. After it was done, I picked her up, and she was fine. But, she would have nothing to do with that nurse anymore. The nurse tried to talk to her, but Sofia just turned away from her. It was kind of funny, but I guess I don't blame her. All in all, everything went smoothly.

Earlier in the day, we stopped at Sears and had some more pictures taken. I know I've gone crazy with photos, but I can't help myself. Anyhow, click here to view them. I think they turned out so well, but I'm pretty biased.

This weekend, we're having Sofia baptized. So, hopefully I can get pictures of that posted fairly soon afterwards. We'll see.
