Ups-and-Downs
I'm not in a very good mood right now. Yesterday was my two-month check up and everything was going well until that mean ol' nurse brought out those nasty needles. Before she came in though, I met with the doctor. When he walked in the room, I was standing on the examining table with some balance support from mom. The doctor was impressed with how well I can support my own weight with my legs already. He asked mommy is she was sure I am only two months old because babies usually don't start doing this until around 4 months of age. He said I may go straight to walking and bypass crawling all together based on what he was seeing. To tell you the truth, I don't like sitting or laying down very much like normal babies. I much rather be doing ups-and-downs. That is where I stand up then sit down repeatedly until I am ready to move on to the next thing to keep me occupied. The rest of my appointment went well, like I said, until the nurse came in. She is a big lady. Much bigger than my mommy. She had mommy lay me down on the table and hold my arms. I thought it was a game until I felt a prick in my thigh, then another one and another one. I cried so hard. My face got all red and scrunched up and I CRIED. After I settled down a little mommy let me eat and that made me feel better. I got drunk on milk and fell asleep. Sleep is all I want to do right now though because my legs don't hurt when I am asleep. Needless to say, I have to take a break from my ups-and-downs because my muscles hurt, but believe me, I will be back at it as soon as I can.
