First "Real" Bath

This has been another busy week for us! Sam had her weight check with the doctor (8lbs 3oz) and she had her very first shot. The doctor is pleased with her weight gain and seems to think that everything is back on track. We are still supplementing with formula and she seems to be tolerating the combination well thus far (knock on wood!).

After spending a few minutes with the doctor, Samantha seemed to know what was coming. She started crying before she even got her shot! Though she let out a pretty severe scream when she got the shot, I do think that it was more traumatic for Allen and I than it was for her! After receiving a bright silver band-aid, she pretty much passed out in the carseat and slept for the bulk of the afternoon.

Now that Sam's bellybutton is healed, we gave her the first "real" bath. While she HATED the sponge baths from previous weeks, she did pretty well in her bathtub. Here are a few pictures and a video that I took. Please bear with me as I am still working on my video skills!
