| Cady got the last of her 5 2-month shots today. They were out of one of the vaccines last week, and told us to call to make sure it was in this week before we came in. No appointment needed. Well, I called yesterday, and was promptly told that I needed an appointment. Ok. Fine. 8:15am. We arrived at 8:19am, and met with a hard look at the clock by the receptionist followed by, “did you call ahead to let us know you were running behind?” This was followed by some heavy sighs by said receptionist after I said “no” and clarified that we were told by the Dr that we didn’t need an appointment to begin with. Maybe next time we’re there, and we’re called back 10-15 minutes after our appointment, we’ll have to revisit this punctuality issue.
Anywho, Cady took her shot like a trooper. Some crying again to be sure, but she settled quickly, and never really had too much of an issue with it as the day went by. I got a shot today too. On the way home, Brennyn, Cady, and I stopped at Walgreen’s to get my flu shot. I didn’t cry as much as Cady did. Later this afternoon, Cady fell asleep next to her mommy and slept for a good while. She slept so well, she filled her diaper with pee…and then dropped another bladder’s worth on the bed. All without waking up. Cady’s bath tonight was a little more eventful than normal. She’s been enjoying them more and more over the past few weeks, with plenty of smiles and the occasional kick and splash – but tonight, she just seemed to suddenly realize: “hey. this is fun!”. I didn’t manage to catch any of the best moments on camera…because that’s just how things always work…but there’s a short video below of some of the splashiness. |

Oh gosh, I could watch this all night! It almost makes me want to go run a bath for myself and watch it while I splishy splash in my own tub of warm water. What a little fish that Cady girl has become overnight. You may wake up tomorrow to find that she has scales and a tail instead of legs. Her mom was certainly able to transform from little girl to mermaid on a whim!
Those pictures are adorable! I light up when I look at them. I have one of more recent pictures on my desktop and I was so proud to pull out my computer today on the way home so everyone could see. She is just so beautiful. I love that splashing, too! It looks like she’s concentrating extra hard to get those kicks just right. I wish I could be there to snuggle with her.
