6 month apointment

Carter had his 6 month appointment a couple weeks ago. He was really closer to 7 months, but whose counting. It was hard deciding what doctor to take him to since we don't know many people here but a girl in my ward referred me to her pediatrician and it turned out really good. Carter is a whopping 17 lbs 15 oz and 27 inches! He sure has grown and he finally made it into the 50th percentile for his weight and height (he's usually under for his weight and over for his height). The saddest part, of course was the shots. It was even worse than usual though! Instead of two nurses doing three shots, two at the same time and one really fast after, there was only one nurse doing four shots, one at a time. I swear it took her a full 2 minutes to do all of them. He would just get calmed down and she'd do another one. They should not allow that kind of slow shot-giving in a pediatricians office.... maybe for the 18 year-olds getting ready for their missions but not babies, come on! But somehow, we survived and he slept a lot the rest of the day.
