Shots Shots and Shots

Well this week I sent off my application to CHSFS and the follow-up paperwork was sent. Also we all had to get a TB test for the medical forms for the homestudy. Well me being the SAHD I am, I took Alexander to the doctor. Just so happens, Alex needed his kindergarten shots also. So we go in and the doctor examines him. Alex starts to get really quirky. Now he said as soon as the doctor came in that he did not want a shot. Unbenonst to him, he needed two. The TB test shot and a Hepatitia A. So I hope you know where I am going with this.....anyway, the doctor gives me the look and I told Alex to get dressed. I started telling Alex about how brave he is and that if he is good I will take him to Nascar Racecar so that he can drive the go-carts. Alex is cool until....

She walked in the room, the nurse that is, carrying what seemed to Alexander two instruments of death. Two needles.

Let the screaming commence.

Well after having two nurses and myself holding him so tightly that he could barely move, the shots were given. After all that he was given a cherry popsicle. Oh the humanity, oh the horror. Alex looked at me as if to say, I freaking popsicle.

Well I am still going to take him to Nascar Racecar.

God love him.

When Liv was still 2 it took FIVE people to hold her down so the nurse could draw blood. Poor babies.
