Facts and Figures

Everyone has been asking about how much Cora weighs, how long she is now, etc. – including my grandparents, who were just in town for a visit. Yay!

We hadn’t been to the doctor in a few weeks, so I wasn’t able to tell them much besides an estimate, but we had her four week checkup today, so I’ve got all new stats.

Miss Cora is officially two feet long! She’s exactly 24 inches…so precise.

And if you’ve held her lately, you know she is – to quote her pediatrician – “solid,” and this morning she weighed in at 12 pounds, 13 ounces. Where did my little monkey ma’am go? She’s all grown up!

And speaking of sad things, she got two shots today at the pediatrician’s office…I don’t want to talk about it. Let’s just say, when the nurse pulled the needle out (sorry, Dad!) and blood ran down her thigh, I cried. I’d be more embarrassed about it, but I’m sure that the nurse has seen worse.

Poor Cora. Poor Mommy.
