6 month shots! ouch!

Today Austin had to go to the Dr for his 6 month check up and shots. He is such a ham! he was flirting with EVERYONE. Our nurse Leigh, had him laughing soo hard and loud that the entire office could hear him. She picked him up and walked around to see all the other nurses and drs. Everyone said he was the cutest baby ever and they wish he could come to the office every day!
Austin got a good check up by Dr. Davis. He is now 27 inches long (which is very tall for his age!) and he weighs 19 lbs! which still puts him in the "average" range. After the routine check up he had to get 1 oral vaccine and 4 shots!! I hate shots so much! it's like a delayed reaction, the stick..everything is ok..but by the time the second stick comes he is blood red and screaming..which makes mommy very sad. He settles down once i can pick him up though, and even gave the nurse a good bye smile. We are back at home now and Austin is sleeping..which I'm sure he will for a while after that! We are going to try to go to the pumpkin patch tonight if Daddy gets home in time and if Austin is feeling up to it when he wakes up....So that is my update for now..maybe pictures later if we ever make it to get out pumpkin!
