Well this morning was full of firsts for Lexi and me. First time I had to sit in a waiting area with a screaming baby and first shots for Lexi. The thing is I didn't mind her crying I just can't stand it when I can't soothe her. Then I figured out is all she wanted was to fall asleep. After I figured that out though all I had to do was nurse her and she fell right asleep. It worked out well cuz she was asleep when I brought her into the injection room for her shots (3 total). I had put her in a sack this morning so I wouldn't have to worry about putting her legs back into an outfit. So they gave her this liquid stuff first to counteract any possible side effects which she woke up for and sucked right down then fell right back to sleep. Got the first shot in one leg, gave one wail then fell right back to sleep. Got two more shots in her other leg wailed then fell right back to sleep. When I came out the other moms were like we didn't even hear her scream. After I nursed her just to get her feeling settled and once we got home gave her some tylenol. Oh I also made sure to rub the place where she got the injections cuz otherwise it can cause bruising. All and all I think it was harder on me than it was on her. I just hate that she even had to feel that little bit of pain. Oh, I almost forgot she now weighs 10lbs 4oz and is 22ins. My little Lexi is getting so big, I just can't believe she is already 2 months. Below are a few pics. Enjoy! :)

Lexi enjoying the 3D commercial during the Superbowl yesterday

Let me just say she is never this happy to be in her car seat, but
Grandma was talking to her so she didn't mind being in it

Sorry about the red eye, but doesn't she look
cute sitting there with her Uncle James (aka Uncle Ratzi)

She just loves it when you talk to her :)

I'm glad she did well at the doctors. I like all the picture but the last one is one of my favorites :)
Oh she is so darn stinkin' cute! I just want to reach out and hug and kiss her through the computer screen. :) I'm glad today went better then you were expecting. Ok I have to go to bed or I would write a bunch more. I love you both! Oh and don't change your background... this one very much fits you. :)
