She has the bandages on her arms in the picture because she also needed a blood draw for her thyroid. We were trying to let the numbing cream soak in beforehand. Sadly, it did not go well :( The lab tried 3 times to get a vein, and failed miserably. We ended up leaving without accomplishing anything, except for a pretty unhappy baby and mama. We are going to try again in about a week, and make sure to give her lots more water next time. Mary is such a little trooper.

Mary had a well-baby visit today with Dr. Dungan. At 21 lbs. 10 oz., and 31" long, she's perfect.
