Dual Doctor Appointments

Ironically, Campbell's 4 year appointment and Riley's 15 month appointment fell in the same month. I took advantage of this opportunity so I wouldn't have to make two trips to the doctor's office.

All week I have been prepping Campbell and getting her ready for the whole ordeal. I have to admit, I was a little worried because both of the girls had to get shots.

Once we arrived to the doctors office, the entire time Campbell kept saying that she wanted Riley to go first. I didn't have a problem with it until the nurse suggested that Campbell get her shots first. The nurse was afraid that if Campbell witnessed Riley crying, it might get her upset and it would be a disaster waiting to happen.

Reluctantly, Campbell gave in to the nurse. 1, 2, 3 the shots were over and done. Campbell didn't even cry. She was a trooper! After it was all over Campbell said that she did not like getting shots. Honestly, who does?

Riley on the other hand is a little more opinionated than the rest of us. She did not like her (one) shot at all. Immediately started crying and basically cried on and off for the next 15 minutes just because she felt like it.

Both girls got an excellent report and are doing fantastic!

Riley's measurements are:
weight - 19lbs 11oz (10%)
height - 31 1/4 inches (75 %)

Campbell's measurements are:
weight - 34lbs 12oz (50%)
height - 40 inches (50%)

I treated Campbell to lunch at Sonic considering she did so well at her doctors visit. What a treat for the both of us!

Don't worry...Campbell shared her tater tots with Riley.....
