Shots

Grant and Reese had their 2 month shots today.  They didn't like the visit very much.  Probably because they started out bundled up so much because it was 13 degrees out today!  They were hot little babies when we got to the office, and then it was warm in the room, so mommy and daddy were hot too.  Always an adventure taking them anywhere, especially to the doctor.  Get them undressed and try to keep them calm while we wait for the doctor to come in.  He is very quick so we don't wait long at all...problem is, he is always in there too fast, we NEVER have time to fill out the forms!!  So we juggle babies, try to get them undressed, keep them calm and try to fill out forms..talk about multitasking!  Today we filled out some sheets on their development, and they are both doing great! After their shots, they both were crabby and we gave them small bottles to help soothe them after their shots. Thank goodness the doctors office is very understanding and lets us stay in the room as long as we have to, to get them calmed back down and ready to go.  The car ride home was good, they slept and were calm.  But when we got home, Reese was really crabby.  Doctor said we could give them children tylenol, so we did.  Reese loved it, and so did Daddy!   Grant was good at first, he ate then he slept...but when he woke up, he really woke up and was NOT happy(he finally got some tylenol also).  Neither of them have fevers, just very fussy tonight.  But no real bad reaction to the vaccines thank goodness!
They both have gained weight, Grant is really sneaking up there, only 4 ounces behind sister!
