day 63: 2 month appt

Well today was our 2 month appointment with Dr. Reidy. We love Dr. Reidy but nurse Judy's assistant was mean to us... can you say a tragic scarring event of repeated stabbings, weighings, and measurements. They gave us some stuff to drink... that wasn't too bad but then she poked us three times... THREE TIMES. The needle was as long as our fingers. It was scary but we were brave. We may have cried a little. (okay Arden got really mad and turned red and screamed really loud in protest and I cried because I could not believe that they would keep stabbing me repeatedly... like what was that about. If they were testing my reaction... it was consistent I DID NOT LIKE IT!!!) We have come to a quick conclusion, we hate shots. We hate shots worse than we hate dirty diapers. With all that we survived... not feeling great though. We have been vocalizing to mommy that we feel not so good since we got home. She gave us some really good tasting gooey sweet red stuff and it made us feel a tad better but nothing feels better than her holding us and talking to us. It is going to be a long night... what??? she let them do this to us... she stood there and held us down. :( she said it was ok... it wasn't ok. oh well I am feeling a little tuckered out so I will end here and scream some more in mommy's direction. She thinks nana can sooth us... we don't think so.

Arden:

weight: 11 lbs. 2 oz.
height: 22 in.
head c: 38.5 cm

Ramsey:

weight: 9 lbs. 9.5 oz.
height: 21 1/2 in.
head c: 37.5 cm


mommy note:
Arden and Ramsey did great! They were not happy in the least but who would be stoked about shots? Arden is now in the 30-60 percentile. (weight was 60 percentile as you all probably guessed) Ramsey is now on the charts averaging around 5-10 percentile. He has some catching up still to do. They have been pretty fussy since they got back home but they are doing good. No allergic reactions or fevers thus far. The kids are fussing... gotta go.
