Today Brooke went to the doctor for her 2 month check up. She weighs 9 lbs and 13 oz and is 22 in long! She's on the shorter thinner side of the percentiles. I think the doctor said something like 24th for weight and 38th for height. She looked good and was super happy and cute for the doctor and all of the nurses.
Eryn had fun running around checking out every inch of the office. She bounced back and forth in the waiting room between the fish tank, the movie, and the 8 or so sick kids who were there. (My least favorite part of well baby visits is that the other kids who are there are most likely SICK and will get my children sick!)
In the exam room Eryn read a book 4 times, measured everything with the tape measure for the baby, weighed about everything from the diaper bag on the baby scale, and then hid in the cupboards under the exam table. Basically, she had a blast. Until the shot nurse came in!
Eryn was having fun playing with things and she opened the door! Eryn froze and tears welled up in her eyes. The nurse was like, "Oh, honey it's ok... These aren't for you." Eryn smiled and said, "Baby Sister?" The nurse said yes and began giving Brooke her shoots. I thought Eryn might be upset by this, but she was just smiling and happy the whole time because she wasn't getting a shot and still got a sticker!

I know what you mean about the "sick" kids...I wish they would divide the waiting room in half- half for the healthy and the other half for the sick ones!!
wow... Brooke is getting so big! Our pediatricians office has 2 separate waiting rooms~ one for sick ones and one for the well children!! I LOVE that! Glad that Brooke is growing well... Kaylin has always been on the smaller end too!
2 months?! she doesn't look a day over 1 1/2 months! I'm just kidding. Out pediatricians office also has two waiting rooms, thank goodness. We got really lucky with a great pediatrician. we love her. Well Brooke sure is cute.
The waiting room at my office is divided, but which side you go to depends on which doctor you're seeing. Not your health status.
Wow, has it already been 2 months. That seemed to go by quick. She is a very gorgeous baby.
