Today was Samantha's 4 month check-up with Dr. Milford. She seems to be right on track with everything and had the following stats:
Height: 25" (75th percentile)
Weight: 13lbs 13ozs (50th percentile)
Head Circumference: 41cm (50th percentile)
Unfortunately, with a check-up also come shots. Today, she had 3 vaccinations (one oral and 2 shots). As expected, she was less than thrilled with the shots, but she did pass out for the ride home and was able to nap for a significant chunk of the afternoon. I was lucky enough to work from home today, so I was able to be with Sam when she woke up from her nap. Surprisingly, she was in a pretty good mood and even let me take some pictures of her battle wounds, which were mended with pink camo bandaids.
Samantha's happy demeanor was short lived--she was not a happy camper for the remainder of the afternoon and evening. In fact, we even decided to try an earlier bedtime, as nothing seemed to console her. When we tried to put on her jammies, she was slightly less than thrilled...
Which reminds me...Samantha has a halloween costume, but she doesn't love it all that much. After work last night, I decided that the time had come to try on her monkey get up. She didn't seem to share my sentiment. I still think she looks pretty cute! :) The pumpkin is made of papier mache and was painted by my mom.




Despite a somewhat rough day, we did have some fun playing in the Baby Einstein jumper. Sam likes to bounce in the center of the jumper and play with the multitude of items that are there for the taking!
