VACCINES!

****NOTE: The following may not be that funny to some and may be one of those "ya had to be there" moments, but I thought it was pretty hilarious and wanted to document it. ***



In order to get Gavin all prepped to start Kindergarten, we had to take him to get all his vaccinations. When I told him the night before that we were going to the Dr. he was a little apprehensive but I promised him that mommy would be right beside him.
He did so great through all the sight and hearing tests, through his check up with the Dr. and just when he thought we were good to go, the nurse came in with those "scary" needles. He sat on my lap and I held his arms down so that she could administer the shots (4 in all). He did pretty good for the 1st couple but by the third one he says to her, (well kind of shouts at her) "You shouldn't stick needles in little kids....that's not nice!" I started laughing my head off and luckily the nurse was good humored about it too. When she was finished she pulled out a diagram of kids who were infected with what he was being vaccinated for. After she explained it, he was somewhat o.k. with it.
As we were walking down the hall of the office to leave, Gavin starts telling the nurses and anyone he passes, "Now I have holes in my arms!" Needless to say, he left the whole office in fits of laughter! Gavin.....My Little Comedian!

Next time I see him I'm going to ask to see his battle wounds. Doctors and nurses are in that profession with lawyers - nobody likes them.

Ha Ha. I bet those nurses get a lot of interesting comments.. They should right em down on a wall. "things kids say at the Dr. office"
Mine hardley ever cried during shots, even as babies. They just moaned.. it was actually eerie. I like Gavins take way better.
