Second Doctor's Visit

Today was the second time Sophia saw our Doctor. He is such a great man and just has a soft spot for Sophia. He has been with us through all of our struggles and I think this adoption means as much to him as it does to us....in fact that is one thing that I have noticed. This little girl has not only affected our lives and our family but so many other people (even ones we didn't know that well) have been giving gifts and cards and have expressed their happiness for us and for her. We have probably been given more things than if we were to have our own biological children. She is a blessing. :)

Anyway, back to the doctor. Our first visit didn't go that well. I didn't take her diaper bag into the office as I had just changed her and thought I would be safe...bad idea. We were still in with the nurse being weighted and Sophia decided that now was a good time to make a huge mess in her pants. Well, I felt like a bad mom because I didn't bring her bag in and had to leave her with the nurse so I could run out passed all of the patients in the waiting room (who had just finished complimenting me on how good she was) to get her bag. The mess was so bad that I had used up all of the wipes in the bag and had to ask the nurse for paper towel to get cleaned up. Yup leave it to Sophia and I to make an impression on the staff.

This visit I was very prepared and good thing I was because although I had just fed her she was (surprise, surprise) hungry again LOL. She is so funny. Our doctor asked if he should go to see another patient so I could have time to feed her. Of course I said yes.

She is doing really well and is now 23 INCHES and 9 LBS 9 OZ. WOW!!!

The only thing we touched on was her totally switching to a soy product although she did well with the combination at first, and her allergy to strong scents.

Now we are just waiting for our weekly visit from her cousin and preparing to see her maternal birth family tomorrow.
Good Day!!!

    I love that you are doing this blog. I rush home every day to see if there are any updates even though you did specify "weekly" updates. I reread the old entries and they make me smile. I love reading about Sophia's and Mommy"s Grand Adventures. Keep it up! It keeps me going in between visits.
    Love you Babe. Kisses to little Sophia.
