Days 124 and 125
On Wednesday morning, Auntie Laura came and picked us up to head over to St. Joes. G was scheduled to receive a medallion and certificate from the Province for being a centagenarian. G is actually a few years older than the province. Mika had fun..she slept, she screamed, she stared. When G went for a nap, Auntie Laura, Mika, and myself headed back to Auntie Kim's place for a garden picnic of sorts. We sat out back in Auntie Kim's screened in gazebo all afternoon. Mika got to meet a dog! Cousin Brutus..cutest little beagle cross ever! He is such a nice mellow dog. He looks like a Holstein sausage.
Yesterday was not so fun. The weather kept us in and Mika and I slept a lot. After Daddy got home and we all had dinner, it was off to the local health clinic for Mika's 4-Month shots. Last time, she was mid-freakout when the needles struck, so it wasn't so bad. This time, Mika watched as the needles penetrated her soft wee leg. And did she scream! She is a tough little thing so the screaming only lasted a minute. No bad reactions again this time. Yay!
Mika weighs in at 13lbs, 6oz. A cause for concern at the clinic because she has dropped to just under the 50th percentile for weight. Despite that, she is a seemingly healthy, happy baby. She's just long and thin like her Daddy. If I may, I must say that I prefer her to be that way then short and squat like her Momma. :-) Mika is 24.25 inches long...now in he 75th percentile for height. She is growing..just slowly. Mika fell asleep on the way home and stayed asleep until around midnight. She had a power feed and went back to sleep until 6 this morning. Not too shabby!
