Haircuts and Doctors and Shots...Oh MY!

Well, today is voting day! I'm currently glued to my tv watching the election results. My little man decided to go to bed at 7:00- which most likely means a very early wake up call for Mommy! So, I figured I'd get my post in early tonight since I'll be heading to bed early! haha. Anyway, I want to give you all a little update on my favorite little man! 

On Friday, we headed to the doctor's office for a check-up and shots. Since we haven't had insurance for a few months, we've held off on getting his shots. However, now that we have insurance we figured it was time to get caught up! We saw our doctor's P.A. on Friday. I'm VERY happy to report that Gabriel is 99% on Target for his age! How amazing is that? My little man who was 10 weeks early and had such a rough start isn't behind at all! I'm so very proud of my little man! The only thing that he isn't doing so well on is being weaned off of his bottle. However, I must say that we are making progress since our visit to the doctor!

Next, we had to get some shots! My little man was soooo good during them too! He cried when they gave him the shots and then when the nurses were done he blew them a kiss!! Who knows- it very well could have been goodbye kiss too! haha. Gabe had 6 shots to get- however, we decided to only give him 3 that day. He will get the other 3 (or 2) in about 6 weeks. We are still debating whether or not to give him the MMR shot right now. {I'm well aware that some might not agree with this decision... but as parents, we feel that we are making the best decision for our child and family}

Moving on, yesterday, November 5, Gabriel got his very 1st haircut. He no longer has a little pony tail in the back...Thank Goodness! haha. However, a few of his little curls in the front are gone.. and this has made Mommy & Daddy very, very sad. He does look much better though! 

Also, a little update on Christmas! We are FINISHED buying for our little man! Can you believe it? I've never been finished with anyone this early! We still have a few little things to get- and we have to finish getting his books and some things for his "Christmas Eve" box... but all of his BIG gifts are finished! Whew! I can wipe that off of my to-do list! 

Alright friends, that's about it for tonight! I'm going to finish some laundry, finish cleaning the kitchen up, and then watch the election results! Have a good one!
