Annabelle has had a good week this week. She has decided she really likes peaches, continues to get stronger and closer to sitting up on her own, and she's learned how to manipulate us at nap and bed time to keep us around!

Tomorrow she goes for her 6-month checkup and her third round of shots. I dread those days. I feel soooo bad for her when she gets FOUR shots in her pudgy thighs. Her screams break my heart. I make Chris hold her when they give her the shots and I look away. I have a hair appointment soon after her doctor's visit tomorrow, so Chris will have to deal with the aftermath. She's normally pretty pitiful for the rest of the day because she's sore. We'll see how his afternoon goes.

And I'm excited to see her weight! I've been dying to weigh her these last few days, but I'm holding off until her official weight tomorrow so we'll be surprised. Surely she's gone back up to the 50th percentile!

Funny story from this week: We went to dinner at Chris' parents' house on Thursday night, and Annabelle was sitting in her little seat next to us at the table. She was quite a gassy girl in the middle of dinner and just kept passing gas, quite loudly, while everyone was eating. Then, her face started turning purple while she sat over there straining. Chris asked her if she needed some privacy. It was very funny!
