Doctor's Appointment

We had to take Essie to the doctor today. She's only pooped twice all week and I was becoming concerned so I called the doctor's office to see what we needed to do. The nurse said to go ahead and bring her in so we went this afternoon. She weighs 7 pounds 12 ounces so she's gained 8 ounces since her appointment last week! So as soon as we called into the exam room guess what little e-claire does?

Yep...pooped. Of course. Kid hasn't pooed in 3 days and as soon as we get in there lets one go! The doctor went ahead and examined her and even did a little "booty exam" to check things out. That's when she pooed for the second time...all over him. I was mortified! And she was furious! She cried sooo hard! But overall it was a good checkup and he said she's growing just like she's supposed to! Here are a few pics of our doctor's visit today...and a short video of her holding her head up and just being so darn cute!!!

Then we ran to the hospital to visit a friend who had a baby today. It was wierd walking in there with Essie 2 weeks later. It was really wierd seeing the room I was in for 3 days...the lady we were visiting was right across the hall from it & it was empty so I stepped in. It made my tummy hurt a bit to be honest!

After that we went to eat mexican with Sarah & Matthew. Essie did really well for the most part. I'm still a nervous momma when it comes to "handling" her in public...like if she cries, etc. She did get a lil fussy and it was near feeding time so I fed her a bottle there. But as soon as I strapped her back into her carseat she spit-up (of course!). And when we got home and pulled her from her carseat we quickly realized that she had her first MAJOR diaper blowout. Yeah...it was all over her carseat, her dress, her legs...everywhere. We stripped her down and put her in the sink and hosed her off. The funny thing is that she seemed to really like it! She locked those knees out and stood in the sink the whole time! Ha! After that we took a real bath and got into our jammies for the night!

That is hilarious!!! The joys of being a parent! That won't be the first time she embarrasses you...and there is nothing you can do about it!
