In Preparation...

I can’t believe that MB starts kindergarten this year. He turns in five in May – I feel so old now!!
In preparation for the big day – his first day of school – we are catching up on things. Like shots. Icky shots.

We are a couple of years or so behind on them. With MG having ADHD, et al (you now read about that HERE), I put off getting him loaded up. I didn’t want to take a chance on them causing something to switch in his little brain, so it brings us to today. When we went to the doctor and got six shots.

SIX.

Luckily the nurses were quite fast, and it was over in less than a minute. But still, six shots in his little legs! I promised him ice cream after, so we went to Wendy’s and got chicken nuggets and a little vanilla frosty. He is now in his monkey jammies with his pillow, “orange” blankie (it’s really yellow, but he decided when he was smaller that it was going to be orange) and his little monkey (he likes monkies!). He gets to stay in the office and watch movies on the BIG TV. (He has chosen Cars, Ratatouille and Transformers). He’ll milk this for as much as he can (he’s kind of wimpy). And I’ll let him – for a couple of days – just because it was SIX shots.
