Shots

Belle was not all smiles after her shots yesterday!

Well Andrew and Belle waited for more than two hours at the doctor's office yesterday. I had to travel to Pocahontas County for work so I missed this appt., which is fine because Daddy got to be the bad guy this time!
So she now weighs 15 lbs. and 4 ozs. She gained 2 lb.s 2 oz., but she only grew by a 1/4 of an inch. She is now 25 1/2 inches long. She got two shots in her left leg yesterday. Andrew said she cried so hard her face turned red/purple. It broke her Daddy's heart.
She has been cleared to take her first flight next week. We'll be traveling to Tampa for the SF game. Belle will get to visit with Aunt Sara a bit. Dr. Skaff told Andrew his secret anecdote for flying: (read in a Lebanese accent) "You give her a little bit of Benedryl and she sleep through the whole flight.") Andrew is skeptical, knowing how stubborn Belle is. She's like her Daddy in that regard. :-)
