Yep, she's pretty tiny but the doc said
she looks very healthy! I honestly could
have swore though that she would have
weighed more than 19 lbs! Shane & I
always guess before we go into the room
& we both guessed right around 25lbs,
she feels heavier than that, that's for
sure!
That's awesome that Finn doesn't cry! The
doc asked us today if we wanted Kaylee to
have the flu shot but I wasn't sure so I
said no. Did Finn have any bad side
effects from that or anything?

nope, no side effects. nick works in a
hospital so i thought it would be best for
finn to get one.

Hmm, I'll have to look into it more. how
far apart do they give the 1st & 2nd
part?

1 month.
this is probably one of those
controversial topics, but i just read in
parents magazine that it's highly
recommended that they get them.

Oh ok, for some reason I had it in my mind
that they do the 1st part then a week or
so later they do the 2nd part. I have no
idea where that came from though. I think
I'm going to have her get it, so far I've
found a lot more pros than cons about it,
& with Shane working in a huge factory
& always being around people, who
knows what kind of germs he's bringing
home!
Have any of yous ever heard of the EMLA
patch (they also have a cream) Here in
Canada they sell it at Wal-mart. You have
to ask the pharmacy for it.
I love it and I highly recommend it. I
used the patches for both my kids and it
freezes the area so it really seems to
make it less painful for them. I used the
cream on my daughter's ears when she got
them pierced and she didn't even cry.
