adrien's 2 month shots

Today wasn't the funnest day in Adrien's life or mine.  It was shot day today and I hate these days. I was really hesitant about getting her shots because of all the Autistic talk about vaccines and shots.  I knew that at some point she would have to get them because of the horrible virus's she can get that could kill her.  I had my son get all of his vaccines with no worry, but now that I have one child I am way more in tuned with the health of both of my children.  I was going to space them out, but it really makes no sense, we would have to be at the doctors constantly and I don't want to put her through that.  I talked to her doctor and felt really comfortable about the decision to vaccinate.  I guess I have become a "Worry Wart".  I fear anything and everything bad that could or might happen to my children and want to prevent anything if possible. 

Grandma Sue came with me so she can be an ear to listen, I love when she is my side kick.  I can sure rely on her for info after the appointment (she's a great listener).  Adrien did great and so did I, I got a little teary eyed, but not bad.  Adrien let out a little scream and then it was over, I was very surprised.  The doctor wants me to bring her back in 2 to 4 weeks to check her weight because she hasn't gained as much as she would like to she.  She is at 11 pounds 7 ounces and 23 inches long.  I think with all the formula change that we have been doing, it has caused her to not gain weight as fast.  I hope and I don't even want to say it, but I think we might have found a formula.   It has been two weeks since she has started on it and boy oh boy she is a happy camper.   I love her happiness, it makes me very happy that I had another child.  It has sure filled that void that I had.  Four month shots here we come!!!
