Shad Mecham Family

We took Capri to the Dr for her 2 month well check. Brenden and Ainsley were concerned about Capri getting shots. Ainsley kept asking if she could hold Capri's hand while she got her shots. Ainsley was right there the whole time. While the Dr was checking Capri over, Brenden and Ainsley were right there, watching and guarding. It was so cute. The Dr asked them if they loved their baby sister. Capri weighed 11 pounds 3 ounces and was 24 inches long. She is doing well. I think I can now say that she is breastfeeding competently. I am so glad that I don't have to pump anymore. It has freed up quite a bit of time; not that Capri will tolerate being set down. It has allowed me to read quite a bit and I am mastering cross stitching while holding her. I am not complaining about having to hold her constantly because one day she won't want to be held anymore. I have to soak up what I can. However, it would be nice if she was happy with her Daddy holding her for longer stretches. We love her, so we hold her. Shad has been so good to help with dishes and other things around the house, which I am very grateful.
Ainsley had a mishap on Saturday. We were at a park in Springville and a snake slithered passed so Shad got the kids to show it to them. Ainsley didn't like the snake and was running away across the grass when she fell on a paved walkway and smacked her head. Of course, she had to fall as she crossed the walkway instead of the grass where her injuries would have been minimal. The goose egg was enormous. Ainsley claims the snake pushed her down with its tail as she was running away.
