July 23rd - Nicolas' First Dr. Visit





Today, Nicolas went to see Dr. Yarckin for the first time to get his first American checkup. According to the Dr. he did very well. He weighs in at 35lbs (6 lbs heavier than Natalie) and is 40 3/4 in tall. I think they said Natalie is almost 40 in tall, so they are close for being 10 months apart in age. We have been asked, many times, since we have been home if they are twins. Obviously not, for those of you who know us, but they look pretty similar. Nicolas did awesome during his first visit with the Dr. all the way up to the time he had to have 3 shots. But you know the best medicine for 3 shots is 2 lollipops. As soon as the nurse gave him the shots she gave him a lollipop and the tears went away. It is so funny because he loves being with Papa (daddy), but as soon as he gets a boo-boo it is "mama, mama . . . ". You can't but love this kid. He is funny and silly and boy does he play his mama and papa. As you can see from some of the pictures, what do you do while waiting for the Dr . . . .. . blow up the rubber gloves and let them go . . . . . :)
