Elsie's 4 Month Check-Up (at 5 Months)

I fell a little behind and Elsie went in for her 4 month check-up at nearly 5 months...oops.

Length - 25"

Weight - 14lbs, 15 ox

Head Circumference - 16"

She is in the 50th percentile for length and weight.

She received 4 shots and an oral vaccine.  

Before the shots they brought her some Tylenol - which she hated!  She cried a bit after the shots but calmed down quickly.  The next morning she spiked a low fever, but was fine otherwise.

Happy 4th of July

Not wanting to deal with the traffic of getting downtown to see the big fireworks, we decided to stay home and set some off in front of the house.  It was a nasty rainy day, but there was enough of a break in the rain to shoot off the fireworks.

Although after this experience, I think that the hassle with the traffic would be much better than the fireworks shooting towards us (our neighbor had a stray firework that came a few feet from Brady and there were some that Daddy shot that did not go the intended direction.)
