So yesterday was Sophia's 6 month check up. She now weighs 17 lbs 11 oz. and has grown 2 inches since her 4 month check up. And once again she had to get a set of shots in her legs. Knowing this, I brace myself and try to be brave but I swear it's harder on me than it is on her. But just like last time, she cried after the initial poke and then once I picked her up and kissed her and started rubbing her back she calmed down. By the time we got to the car she was smiling up at me with those tear stained cheeks and that's when my heart just melted. After all that I just put her through (no doubt for her own good), she still looked at me with those big blue eyes as if to say, " Mommy, I love you still." Being a mom is the best and most wonderful gift and blessing in the world, let's just say I'm not looking forward to the first time she scrapes her knee. I'll probably be a blubbering wreck.
