Saturday we went to the doctors for Zachary's 4 month appointment. He showed off his standing and talking skills (not to mention his flirting skills with the nurses). The doctor gave me some breast milk medication (like I mentioned in my Eping post...every medical intervention to do something so natural) and gave Zachary his immunizations. Z turned red and got silent before SCREAMING...this lasted about 30 seconds before I stuck a bottle in his mouth and he fell asleep. I am going to have to remember that even though he may be cranky...it wasn't such a bad idea to bring him to the doctor sleepy.
By the time we got back to the hotel he was finished napping (these 20 min cat naps are not the most convenient) and was back to himself.
We remembered the nightmare from our 2 month appointment and trip to the big Buddha...and decided to spend the day out anyway. I think the main reason he was so happy was the baby carrier...he hates being strapped in...this time we used the stroller and he was perfectly happy.
We went to a Lebanese restaurant for lunch...
walked on Hollywood rd...
This is also a nice beach/boardwalk area. We had a wonderful dinner outside on the boardwalk smelling the salty air; plus the breeze felt wonderful.
Sunday morning we took it easy and slept in...all three of us. Zachary woke up at 6:30 ate and fell back to sleep until 10:00. I washed bottles and pumped (this isn't so easy in a hotel). We traveled on the MTR back to the Chinese border and went through Lo Hu immigration for the last time...
