Evelyn turned two months old on Thursday (nine weeks on Saturday). On Friday, she got her first round of vaccinations – three shots and a dropper-full of medicine. She wasn’t exactly pleased about it, but was very brave; her dad had been at pains to explain the importance of herd immunity. By getting vaccinated, Evelyn isn’t just keeping herself healthy – she’s helping lots of other little boys and girls.
There were also the requisite measurements, which were extremely gratifying:
(beer bottle for scale)
Evelyn is 12.5 pounds (88th percentile) and 24.5 inches (98th percentile), and in clinical terms, cute as a button. Nice growth, kiddo! Maybe by the next visit we can have you trained to smile for the camera.

Zoe had the rock hammer for scale, and Charlotte has her monkey. I should have guessed you’d use a beer bottle…nice.
Nice baby, too. She’s so beautiful!
