Milestones

Rockstar baby got his first set of shots (immunizations) yesterday. Poor little guy cried, of course, when they put the needles in (there were 3 shots in total)! But he toughed it out and was fine as soon as they were done. Luckily, he didn’t get any fevers of anything that night, and he was only a little more cranky than usual. He was also weighed yesterday and he was 10 lbs and 6 ounces. He’ll be 2 months old this Friday. I’m trying to fatten him up since I feel bad that he came out so little (at 6 lbs, 13 ounces). Then again, he decided to come out earlier than predicted! He should’ve been baking more a couple of weeks!

Today, I took him to get his Easter pics done. I have officially turned into a parent who takes their kid to get photos done. What a money-making machine, I must say. I went to Kiddie Kandids inside the Babies R Us store near me. The cheapest package they had was around $75 without tax! Of course, silly me didn’t check out the pricing until after the pictures were done –I had just assumed they would start around $30 or so. The good thing is you can get pics a la carte – which I did. Since rockstar baby can’t sit up yet, he had to be propped up. He was also very sleepy since I rudely woke him up from a nap, so he didn’t smile that much. In any case, I think the pics came out nicely.
