Day at the doctor

It rained all night last night and when we woke up this morning the ground was still all wet from the rain. It was a gloomy looking day. It drizzled all day on and off. When I was home on Maternity Leave with Dimitry it rained a lot. Here it is again and I'm off with him and it is raining again. What is it with the rain and me being off with Dimitry and Sasha. When I was off with Sasha back in August 2005 it rained a lot.

Today was Dimitry's 4 month shot doctor appointment. He woke up in a great mood as usual. We got to the appointment and he was happy still and the doctor said he is right in the middle of the growth chart as far as his height and weight. She said he looks great!! He now weighs 14.4 pounds and is 24 inches long. He does great at the doctor's visits. Then the nurse came in and gave him his 4 shots and a liquid form shot in his mouth. He cried for a minute when she poked the needle into his legs but after I picked him up he quit crying.

I guess heis going to be like his big brother Sasha. Sasha never crys at the doctor appointment even if he has to get shots or bloodwork. He says he is tough and tough he is. I remember the first appointment Sasha had when we came home from Russia. He had to get all kinds of blood tests and X-Rays, EKG, Echo Cardiogram. Even with all that kind of procedures, Sasha was very tough and didn't cry much.

We don't go back to the doctor again until his 6 month visit.
