Flu shot #2

Ethan didn't want to nap at home, so we went ahead and left this morning to run some errands, figuring he would fall asleep in the car... which he did as soon as we left! We went to Kohl's to return some things (got a better deal ordering online!), and found a really cute hat and mittens for Ethan. He does not like keeping a hat on and always rips them off. This hat is fleece and has a strap that velcro's under his chin... hopefully this will deter him from ripping it off. It is brown fleece and has a little monkey on it :)

Then we took Ethan to the pediatrician's office to get his second flu shot. Babies have to get two separate doses the first year that they get the flu shot. He did not even cry at all! He took the shot like a champ. We went ahead and did his measurements while we were there - he is 19 pounds, 6 ounces, and almost 28 inches long. It is always really hard to get his length, and it seems like you get a different reading every time. The last time we were there, Dr. Leanza ended up getting his length because what the nurse measured was way off. So anyways, we got almost 28 inches. We know he is getting longer, because his jeans are getting shorter on him!

We got out Ethan's winter coat today and it is really cute on him :) A little big, but it works. He was so cozy! We stopped at Costco to pick up a few things and we all had cheese pizza for lunch. Ethan fell asleep as soon as we left Costco and napped for awhile all bundled up in his carseat after we got home.
