Shot time... No not the "good" shot kind


Well yesterday Gavin got his very first shots :( Very sad. It was bad but nothing out of the ordinary of what to expect in shots. He screamed, then held his breath while screaming, then the tears came. Oh then my tears came. But then Brian talked to him an calmed him down with his deep soothing voice and then Gavin slept pretty much the rest of the day. That is until 3pm when he woke up screaming bloody murder because his legs hurt and the Tylenol wore off. He screamed for and 1hr 15 mins strait and the choking kind of cry too! AWFUL! I ended up calling Brian and made him come home from work and then called the doctor. By the time Brian came home and the doctor called me back he had finally wore himself out and crashed in my arms. So it was nonstop Tylenol until about 5:30 tonight.


Then today he slept all day again and through the crazy storms too. We had some serious rain and winds today and all day! The winds were over 40 mph with gust around 50 mph. Our fence fell over, trash can in the pool and the neighbors tiki hut bar thingy is about to crash on the other side of the fence!


The picture above is a mild version of what Gavin looked like yesterday when he was screaming his head off because he was in so much pain. Poor baby, so sorry we made you get the shots :( But on a good note he is 23 inches long and weighs 11 lbs 6 oz at 9 weeks old. He is in the 50th percentile for his age group. Right on track Bubby!
