This has been a big week for me. On Tuesday, I went to see my doctor. He checked me out and called me a "big kid". The nurse measured me and found that I was 12 lbs 8 oz (90 percentile), 24 1/4" long (97 percentile), and my head was 16 1/2" (98 percentile). Mommy and Daddy say that my head is so big to hold my over-sized brain. After the doctor checked me out, he left us and we waiting in the exam room for a few minutes. I was wondering what the deal was because Mommy still had me wearing only a diaper. A few minutes later, the nurse came in, and that is when everything went downhill! First of all, the nurse gave me something to drink that didn't taste anything like milk. I was trying to recover from drinking that stuff when she poked three LONG sharp things into my leg! It was then that I found out what shots were, and that I don't like them! I only cried for a few seconds, but those shots made me feel a little icky for the rest of the day. It is good to have that doctor's visit behind me; I don't have to go again for two more months - whew!
On Wednesday, I got a surprise visit - Grandpa Mike and Grandma Lyn came to see me! I got to spend all afternoon and evening with them. Wednesday night, Mommy and Daddy dressed me up for my first Halloween as a penguin. I really liked my costume - it was both cute and very warm! We went to Edmond to see Grandpa Fred and Grandma Judy, then we went to go see some of my friends at church.
It has been a very memorable week for me; actually, I hear that next week may be very special, too! Stay tuned...
