Holden got his 2-month shots today. He was such a good boy the entire time. He was smiling and cooing and dancing. Showing his immense devotion for me with intense soul gazes. The doctor said he is doing perfectly and to not change anything, though he is following his father's baby pattern of doubling his birth weight in two months instead of the usual four. He is 13 lbs, 8 oz. Big boy!
After the doctor left the evil nurse came in. I held his hands and put my face up close to stare into his eyes and then WHAM. He turned eggplant in a nanonsecond. He was so freaking shocked at this sudden violation that he opened his mouth into the scream of his life, was so overcome with rage and despair, that nothing came out of his mouth. Just an eggplant face with an open mouth and balled up fists. Then he worked that out and let loose the sonic hounds of hell. Poor little man. But he was so sweet, I held him to my chest and told him what a brave boy he was and he calmed quickly and just sniffled. We don't have to go back for another 2 months thank goodness.
Daddy has been away in Houston since Monday but he returns tomorrow. We can't wait to see him and get some much deserved snuggles.
Holden in happier times. Chris and Holden and I made up a song on the keyboard and recorded it. Holden likes to dance to it in his Purple Rain chair but gets frustrated when he can't reach forward to grab his feet (which is his new favorite game):
And showing off his Sunrise Special:
