What was Molly's first weight? There are many things that can effect a weigh in, including what scale was used or whether or not Molly had recently had a meal and eliminated (peed or pooped). If the difference was only a couple ounces, I wouldn't worry. I would buy a good baby scale for home to monitor her weight. My boys are big, but I like to watch their weight at home. Sometimes vet offices will put little dogs on the big dog scale and I don't think the reading is accurate.
Relative to the vaccines, as long as your pup did not have a reaction yesterday, she should be fine. Our first vet loaded Max up with everything in one day when he was a pup. I learned later that rabies should be separated by 3-4 weeks from all other vaccines. Check out the sticky post in the YorkieTalk Library for more information on vaccine protocols.
