Austin went for his 18 month check up today. He is healthy and on track. He is 24.5 lbs and 32.5" tall. He got two shots and was a trooper as usual. I used EMLA cream on his thighs to help numb the needle prick and for the first shot he hardly reacted at all. The second one he cried a tiny bit, but the nurse said the vaccine itself burns, so the numbed skin couldn't prevent it.
We got home and he took a 3 hour nap! I guess the vaccines knocked him out.
I need Marlee to go in for hers too...but I don't think she has to get shots...we will see.
