Yearly Checkups
Somehow I failed to post when the kids had their 2 and 4 year checkups a few weeks ago. Of course, I didn't write down their stats and totally forget but will update this post when I get them from the Dr.
The 4 year old checkup is the most traumatic yet. They get 4 shots and a blood draw. Luke remained calm through the finger prick but as soon as they started sticking him with shots it was all over. Lucky for him, the nurse is quick and it was over in no time. By the time they got to the hall, Luke seemed to have forgotten as he awaited his sticker and lollipop.
Paige had no walk in the park either. She also had blood taken and 2 shots. I think the 4 year is more traumatic because they now remember and are much more aware of what is going on. Can't wait to see what happens next visit.
Here they are the morning of, completely unaware, as they make drawings for Dr. Jen -
