Shots

Rocky and Daisy both had their 2 and 4 year old check-ups. Rocky gained three pounds from his last appointment in October. So, it was very nice to not hear my doctor tell me we need to watch his weight. I think he weighed close to 25 pounds. This particular visit was for specifically for shots. Rocky needed the second round of his flu shot and Daisy needed all of her boosters. So that meant 5 shots for Daisy and 1 for Rockwell.

I am so proud of both my kids. They took their shots like pros. Especially Daisy, she did so good. I was so proud of how brave she was. She kind of teared up after the first three, but held it together. The last two shots were the more painful one and she started to cry but I could tell she was trying so hard to by tough. She was very resolved to be brave and did a good job.

I took them to the dollar spot after to pick something out for being so good. They both chose paints. Daisy is getting very good at staying inside the lines. A few months ago she was scribbling all over a picture and I sat down with her and showed her how to stay in the lines. It must have been a revelation because because now she colors only inside the lines and does a decent job. And whenever she sees a kid not coloring in the lines she will point it out to me like that kids is doing it completely wrong.

Then there is Rocky. Who enjoys getting paint everywhere but the on the picture. Oh well.
