Battle Scars

NyCee received her 4 month immunization shots today. Prior to getting the shots, she was weighed and measured. She is 14 lbs and 26 inches. She is going to be a tall girl as neither mother nor father are vertically challenged. With respect to the 14 lbs, that is a result of her aunts saying that I needed to feed her more than 2 ounces of milk. Baby weight watchers here we come.

NyCee breezed through that potion of her exam. She was alright until the nurse held her down in an attempt to administer the shot. She gained the strength of Goliath. She kicked and screamed and the little tears fell from her eyes. (Conveniently, Lewis had to work so he was not there to hold her down during this process. He couldn’t take it when she had her ears pierced. He nearly left the room.)

After the shot, she immediately stopped crying. She was more upset at being held down than receiving the shot.

She returned to her happy jovial self. She even bypassed her afternoon nap. Finally around 3:45 she zonked out. What a tough day!
