Today's over... Tomorrow's very exciting!

Samara had her 4 month old shots this morning and has been sleeping for 3 hours this afternoon already. The last time she had a nap this long was... well, after her 2 month old shots! But, wonderful as napping is, I just hate her shots and already dread the next ones in 2 months. I am a tearful wreck every time and my heart breaks for her as she shrieks and then whimpers for several minutes afterwards. Being my amazing, strong and cheerful little girl, she is soon all smiles again, but the bloody band-aids are sad reminders of this unfortunate childhood necessity. The doctor said she might have to get her tooth (that she was born with) extracted, in which case she'd have to be sedated. Just the thought of it brings tears to my eyes. Please pray that she doesn't have to. It's not loose and I don't see why but upon her referral, the doctor thinks the dentist will say she must. That apart, Samara is perfect. She's now in the 65 percentile for weight! Do you know that at her 4 week appointment she was in the... 0 percentile! I am so proud of her. And now you can believe me when I tell you how much she eats! We have the doctor's blessing to introduce her to solids which is excellent as she's still so hungry and definitely fulfills all the criteria for this giant milestone: She chews on her tongue, drewls less, holds her head perfectly, gets googly eyed over our food, swipes at my fork, sometimes cries for it, and basically is just always hungry! We're going to wait until tomorrow, just to make sure we don't confuse her reaction to the shots and her reaction to her first banana, but I'm just so excited to see my little girl eating! She deserves this so much and I am quite positive she'll love it! I'll let you know...
