Well, Stephen and I went to the travel clinic on Thursday to make sure we were up-to-date on our vaccinations (we weren't - Stephen had 3 shots, I got 2) and Alexandria went on Friday for her two-month appointment and her vaccinations. And yes, everyone felt them - though only Lexi wailed her head off. Since we are taking her to Africa, she got an extra shot - the one for TB, I think - that in this day and age, babies in the US and Europe do not normally get. She ended up with three bandaids - 1 on each leg and 1 on her arm.
The doctor said Lexi might be a little fussier or get a fever or maybe want to sleep a lot. While she got a little warm, she didn't have a fever of note and it's hard to say if she was a lot fussier than normal. But she's had a lot more poopy diapers than usual. We are hoping that is shot related and gets back to normal soon!
On the stats side, she is very close to weighing 5 kilos and is 2 cm longer than she was 5 weeks ago. All other systems are working well.
