another round?


Cora had her second round of vaccinations Tuesday afternoon, another four shots plus a liquid dose. You can see her here showing off her bandages, along with her prettiest new cloth diaper. The shots went much better this time in that Mom didn't cry. Cora, on the other hand, did a bit of screaming. She wasn't herself Wednesday, either, and was just fussier than normal. The official numbers show her to be a long, lean baby. She's 25 3/4 inches long (90th percentile!) and 13 pounds 6 ounces (35th percentile).
On Wednesday morning, I took part in a local Stroller Strides class. It was great, and I think I'll start going regularly. The hourlong classes are lead by a fitness instructor and include a lot of strength training along with the walking. I love walking for exercise, but normally don't do much in terms of strength so this will be good for me. Plus it's a chance to meet other moms.

The second photo is from Monday afternoon; we went to the swimming pool (Dad was the only one to get in) and Cora fell asleep on her towel on the lounge. She was so cute, 'sleeping like a baby.'
