The Dreaded Dr. Visit, Pt. 2

On Tuesday, April 15th, Xander had his second Doctor appointment that would include shots, something we knew wouldn't be too fun.
Tracy and I met at the clinic that afternoon to go together. While we were waiting he was as happy as ever, smiling and talking like he always does. He was a hit with Deb, who hadn't seen him since our last visit, and he played it up like usual, smiling and talking to her too.
Xander weighed in at 14 pounds 15 ounces and was 25 inches long, putting him in the 70th percentile for his age. Last time he was in the 60th all around, but this time his head was in the 45th percentile.
Dr. Hill said that Xander was doing great and that he seemed to be right on track for everything. After she checked him out, it was time for the shots.
The two nurses came in and got him ready and the poor unsuspecting little boy got the look of sheer horror on his face again when he got poked by the first two needles. The second two needles sent him overboard and he turned as red as a tomato when he started crying.
Luck for him Tracy scooped him right up and soothed him, which seemed to make things all better.
Later that night Haley and I went out to practice softball, and Tracy brought Xander out and he was happy again. I think he really likes being outside, so I can't wait for this summer when we can spend so much more time outside having fun.
