Needle Day......

My poor little boy got poked again today.

I arrive at the clinic and once again I forgot how warm it is in there and I was wearing a light jacket. Undressed Orion he was babbling away the nurse calls his name we go over to get him weighed. Orion is a little flirt he kept eyeing the nurse and when she'd look at he'd give her a big ole slobbery smile, that was it once I put him on the weigh scale took his diaper off he did not like that and cried. Once back in my arms he was a happy camper only to be put down again to be measured once again he was not impressed...lol

Weight ~ 14.1 lbs
Height ~ 26. Inches (I think she said)
Head Cir ~ 17 inches

he is in the 25% range.

Now for the needle and boy he was not happy about it let me tell ya. I was holding him in my lap clapping his hands when she poked him not once, not twice but three time and he cried so hard he held his breathe. The nurse was trying to show him a flashing toy but his eyes were closed so tight to even see it and crying to hard to hear us. I stood up and bounced him some then he calmed down then the nurse showed him the toy again, Orion reaches out to try and grab it he was a bit clumsy at 1st but he did manage to grab it. We then sat around for 15min to see if he'd have a reaction and at 2:15pm we left and went shopping.

Went to Zellers then Toys R us looking for a potty for him (yeah I know he still has a ways to go) I used up one of my gift cards for the baby shower and I thought a potty would be a good thing to get with it. I bought the 1st Years Disney Potty.
