The Aftermath

Hewitt went to the pediatrician for the first time today (well, we all went to the pediatrician, which made for a crowded exam room when you had four of us plus the doctor plus the student doctor). Mama forgot to take the camera to this occasion (which is not significant in many people's worlds, I know), but here is Hewitt's reaction after the car ride home...

Ho hum...

The doctor declared him "perfect," and we agreed. She said that we don't need to go back until he's 2 weeks old -- what?! I said that it seemed like we were there every few days with Harrison, and she smiled a gentle, knowing smile and said, "Well, he was much smaller ... And you were first-time parents." Ah -- so those appointments were more for us than for him! Yeah, that makes sense -- I did have 5 or 10 questions to ask at every visit. :)

Harrison's disappointed, though, because he won't be with us next time we go (I'll take Hewitt while Harrison is at school), which means that he won't get to go sticker shopping on the way out of the office -- unfair! He did get some good ones with this visit and didn't have to do a thing to earn them!
