Outing

Since coming home at the end of April, Dorrie has left home precisely 3 times. Once to go back up to the hospital for Day o’ Appointments, once to go to grammy’s house for her birthday party, and now once to go to the pediatrician for her 1 year checkup.

The nurse who came in to take down her stats must have failed remedial baby measuring (her ear was caught in the head measuring tape, she was wearing a full diaper when she was weighed, etc) so I’m not going to bother to record the numbers.

We decided to delay the MMR vaccine this time, both because Dorrie is still recovering from her ick last week, and also because I think 2 shots at a time is enough for anyone. So chicken pox seemed more important, since there is actual potential for exposure if it came home on my clothes somehow. She handled the varicella and the hep A shots with minimal fuss, and did not even draw blood when she clawed at Bob’s chin. Overall she was well behaved, and we won’t count against her puking in the car seat before we left, puking in the car on the way there, or puking on the table in the exam room.
