Lots to report. Edy turned 1/2 today. She weighs 16 lbs 2oz, and is 25.5" long, she has a head circumference of 43.5 cm. She is precisely average height and weight for her age, but her head ranks in the 75% - we're so proud!
The doctor said she's doing great, and to expect her to get 10 colds a year, each lasting 2 weeks, for the next two years. Holy crap Batman! - that means Edy will be sick for half of her life until she's 2 - but she will also be building lots of antibodies.
Speaking of antibodies, turning 1/2 means immunization shots - and boy do we love shots! Actually, it's a mixed blessing. NewDad and NewMom don't like to see our little girl get stuck and cry, but it seems each time she gets shots, she sleeps all night without waking up - she did that last night. I'm so confused, I kinda want her to get shots every day, no - don't want that, yes, I kinda do ...
NewDad also got his flu shot yesterday, and NewMom got hers a few weeks ago, so we are all protected.
