Aidan had his two month well baby visit this morning. The poor kid had to endure FOUR injections! Yep - you read that correctly. FOUR! There were two nurses who kind of "tag teamed" him - so he had two shots (one in each leg) at the same time. I admit it. I cried when I saw him screaming and crying because he was in pain.
And, not only was he in pain but he was really hungry, too. I know this because he was supposed to eat at 10am. His appointment was for 9:50am, so I figured he could wait an extra ten to fifteen minutes to eat. I certainly didn't think we'd still be in the exam room at 11:00am! My poor baby - I hope he doesn't hate me. I feel like such a bad mommy...
Right after he got all four of his shots, I immediately picked him up and loved on him. I held his head so close to my cheeks and cried right with him. Of course, Alex is starting to get irritated because he knows Aidan is hungry and Alex is tired (he worked last night) so he just wants to get home and in bed. My biggest concern was comforting Aidan. So Alex was kind of "pissy." Oh, well. Too bad! Right?!?! Okay - now I'm a bad wife AND a bad mommy! Ai yi yi!
Anyway - we're home now and my beautiful baby boy is sound asleep on Mommy's chest. I have a feeling that's where he'll be staying all day long, too.
(I think I like this Tylenol stuff...)
He didn't sleep well last night - maybe he knew what was coming this morning. I had warned him, but I honestly didn't think he'd understand! LOL Must be one smart cookie I've got here! Anyway - since Aidan didn't sleep well last night, Mommy didn't either. I'm exhausted. So maybe I'll try to catch a quick nap while Aidan is sleeping. Kind of hard to do, though, because I don't nap well sitting up. Oh, well - it's worth a try, right?
