And he was a champ. The nurse worked fast (Holden had fallen asleep between the doctor checking him out and her arrival); so obviously he woke up, but as soon as she was done pricking our guy I picked him up and he only cried for like 15 seconds. Needless to say, he's had a big morning, but is sleeping now.
Also, in case you're wondering, an update on his stats (and yes, he's 8 weeks, LONG and a CHUNK!!!):
13 lbs 4 oz (84% isle)
25 inches (97% isle)
It's weird to juxtapose that with his week checkup: 37% isle for weight at just over 8 lbs.
They keep telling me I can't over-feed him, or spoil him with love...

What a brave lil man! I think the best part is being the one to rescue him after shots..they just love you more! Plus they sleep more after shots which makes everyone happy.
Oh vaccinations!!!! Aggghhh! I used to dread them when Jonah was so tiny. But aren't babies so resilient? Holden is a little stud- I'm glad it wasn't too unpleasant for either of you. And good for him for growing so well! What a happy, healthy, perfect little babe. I wish I could hold him and snuggle him and smell his new tiny baby hair! :) Do that for me, okay? Love you!
You can't spoil a new baby, so hold and love him all you can. he is growing like a champ! Jonathan is now 11 pounds 2 oz so girl, you must be producing CREAM to have 13pounder! Good job and I asked my pediatrician about vaccines too, we are in for the whole 2 year process too. Good job mommy!
