We were successful on our second attempt to get Anastasia vaccinated. So far she is only running a slight fever and doing quite well; she even managed our regular Friday trip to a mall with no problems. For some reason they couldn't get her name right even after writing it and spelling it- so she was called "Anutusia" throughout the visit. She now weighs in at 11 lbs. and 5 oz. and is 22 in. long. Thus, she's holding her percentile in weight, but jumped from a 9% to 46% in length. (Can you tell I'm a math teacher?!) For all those with children, there's a cool site where you can graph and identify their percentiles for up to 2 years- http://www.mybirthcare.com/favorites/babygrowth.asp
Visas.
Poor Randy spent Wednesday and Thursday at immigration (after his teaching day was over.) He was #189 (they were on #21) in the waiting line on the first day and even worse off the second. Together I would estimate a total of 4 hours for both days. The second day was needed because once again, the perfect size, color, etc baby picture was elusive. We paid the expediting fee so that we will be able to take her into Oman without having to try to sneak her across the border over Eid holiday. But, oh what a sense of accomplishment we will have when it's all done!
Very shocking photos.
These are NOT pictures of Anastasia, but in fact RANDY as a child. Especially identical is the top left picture. Even her own mother would have said that that was her!
