Shots My babies had their 1st immunizations today. They had 3 shots and one oral. They cried for about 30 seconds and then were okay. They are so brave!
James weighs: 10.5 He is 21 inches long
Audrey weighs: 9.4 She is 21 1/2 inches long
The doctor was very, very pleased with their weight gain and said they are doing superb and don't have to come back for 2 months! I love Dr. Walker because he always makes me feel like I am doing a wonderful job as a mother. He always calms any fears I have about anything and the best part is I know he takes my children's health just as seriously as I do.
He said that in February it will be okay for them to meet their cousins! Hooray! As long as they are not sick and don't touch them. He also said we could go out to places but just be smart, use good judgement; like going to the mall at 10:00 in the morning when there are not that many people there. But, still no church. He said they still do not need to be in large crowds where people are real close to them and handling them because you just never know who may be harboring some illness. And RSV is runnig rampant this time of year and even though they are getting preventitive shots, it is not worth the risk. Their immune systems are only as strong as a 6 week old baby because gestationally they are only 6 weeks old. So we must treat them as such.

However, I was SO excited at this news I was practically dancing in the aisles at Target. Nenie (Jon's grandmother) sat in the car with them this time because it is very cold and rainy here today. But just to know that if I wanted to, I could have taken them in! We probably wont go anywhere much but just knowing we could feels like a million bucks!
