11 pounds 23 inches



SO we went to the doctor's office today and we didn't like it. Sydney got her first set of shots and it was completely unpleasant for the both of us.  The poor thing didn't even know what was coming. That nurse just stuck the little needle in so hard and so fast and with no warning. Sydney went from having a huge smile on her face to a look of terror that turned into the loudest and saddest scream she has ever made. She gave me a look that made me feel like I had betrayed her, and I don't blame her. Let's hope she forgets about this by tomorrow. She is now doped up on children's tylenol and is allowed to do whatever she wants for the rest of day. I wish that meant that she could do really fun stuff like eating chocolate and gummy bears or going to Disney Land, but really I only mean that she can fuss as much as she wants and I'll hold her and love her all day long.

  1. What an angel. I hate to hear she had to get shots. I can't believe she is 11 pounds. COuld you imagine delivering a baby that big. There is a football player for LSU who was 13 when his mom delivered him--record in LA. We grow em big!

  2. Courtney! She is so beautiful! I hate shots. Aunt Marianne told me to leave the room, and have a nurse hold the baby. Then you get to come in and save them from the evil awful doctor people. I still haven't done it, but i think I will try.

  3. Poor little Sydney. I absolutely hate getting shots, so I can imagine watching my own little girl getting them. Luckily they forget about it quickly.
    I love her little pearls. She is already so stylish!

  5. Hey Courtney! What a beautiful little baby girl, we also had a baby girl recently! I'm so glad I thought to look up to see if you had a blog. Looks like you are very happy. Thanks for being such an amazing missionary example to me. (By the way this is Katie from your Tucson days, Christie Leon's little sister)
