This morning was Naomi's 12-month appointment at the doctor's office. Poor thing. She "whined" the entire time, which is quite uncharacteristic for her. She might look sorta happy in this quick pic, but she wasn't. That pic was an accident.
This is how she really felt. She didn't care about finding out that she weighs 24lbs, 15oz (95%), that she measures 30.5 inches long (90%), and she certainly didn't give a flip about having a head that's 45cm in diameter (70%)! Then the worst of it all. Two strange women came in and double-whammied the girl with shots. And boy, does she ever know better now! At 6 and 9 months, Naomi was quite unassuming of shots and quick to quiet her one yell in response. Not so anymore... she was A.N.G.R.Y. at those women! I picked her up after they finished and she just cried, and looked both of them straight in the eyes with an intense frown through the tears.
So we said a little prayer of forgiveness for the nurses on our way home (j/k), got cozy, and curled up on the couch. Nothing like 0.8mls of Tylenol and a little "Preschool Musical" on Sesame Street to heal a crummy start to the day.
I guess having that doctor's appointment down in the books means that I should take down the cute birthday blog background already. Well, maybe tomorrow...
