Last Friday, I scheduled an appointment for Braylen and Judson. They were both due for well visits, and I thought it would be easiest to take care of them both on the same day. Allen went with us and it honestly wasn’t too terrible.
They checked her height and weight and hearing and vision, and the doctor did a quick assessment as well. She has stayed consistent in height and weight since birth. She’s in the 25th percentile for weight at 33 pounds and the 75th percentile for height at 41 inches.
Judson weighed in at 13.8 pounds and 24.5 inches, putting him around the 60th percentile in both. BK wasn’t too happy when we told her she had to get shots, but she was a little more at ease once they promised her a popsicle afterwards.
She decided it might be a good idea to hide with the baby until the blanket. Too bad it didn’t work for either of them.
In the end, there were eight shots given between the two of them. Judson started his first round of vaccinations and BK finished up her vaccinations. She won’t need anymore for several years.
She asked for a pancake and sweet tea after it was over, and we treated her to the breakfast of her choice.
As for Judson? He slept most of the day, he was pretty sleepy on Saturday as well, but by Sunday he was back to his happy self.

Awww… shots are the worst!! But glad the popsicle and pancake made it better! That’s adorable she asked for a pancake and sweet tea.

Talk about a little southern lady! Pancakes and sweet tea. Bless it.
And 8 shots in one appointment? Sweet fancy Moses! I’m so glad you had Allen with you!
