8 week appointment

Lennox is now officially a sumo baby. He is 12lbs 11oz and is 26 inches long! He also rolled over for the first to show off for the doc. So crazy! He had his 8 week appointment on the 3rd, and it was quite an interesting experience. He had three shots in his little legs and one liquid vaccine. When he got the poke with the needle(s) his little face slowly turned red (like a cartoon, it started at his neck and went up) and he went to scream so loud that no sound came out. Poor little man. I don't know who is more traumatized, the baby or the parent watching the baby go through the pain. No fun. He tired himself out within five minutes though and slept forever. He unfortunately got the diarrhea, vomiting and no sleeping side effects, so the last four days have been a blast let me tell ya. He threw up so much right as I was trying to get him to bed.....I was amazed at how much milk he threw up! It is like he is a hamster, holding onto his food in some random pocket in his body. Last night we took him to our friend Kenyon's Saturday Night Music Club get together and he had a blast. He loved meeting everyone and enjoyed listening to some sweet tunes. We brought him home and put him to bed and he had his first good night sleep since the evil day of shots.

He has been laughing and 'talking' so much now that it just the norm! It is so cute. (Of course, being his mother, I think his poop is cute....so you will have to see it for yourself and decide whether or not it gets the cute award). We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. It was so great having Levi home for the whole week. We went to Apple Hill on the Sunday after Thanksgiving with the Henson's and the Cowger's and we got our Christmas tree. It was the best day ever and I do believe that we have created a new family tradition. I am so excited for Christmas!!! :)
