Reprieve

Well, Natalie went to the doctor today. She was supposed to get her 2-month shots but since she has been sick the past week, the doctor didn't want to give her the shots because he was afraid she'd have a bad reaction. So daddy will have to bring her in again when she's better (hopefully next week). The good news is that she's gaining a good amount of weight. She's still in the 10th percentile in weight for her age, but that's a vast improvement from the less than 5 she was at her 2 week check. She's weighing in at a whopping 8 pounds, 12 ounces -- more that two pounds heavier than last month! YEAH NATALIE! The doctor says she's doing great, and he showed me the graph of her progress, she's following the little curve just like she's supposed to.
Her cold is getting better, though it's still hanging on a little. She has a few coughing fits, but it's getting there. But now I'm getting sick -- thank goodness for the long weekend because I don't have any sick days left. Daddy will have to take care of both of his girls this weekend.
