Shots




Yesterday was Davis's 4 year old visit to the doctor. Although Jackson had warned him of the inevitable shots, he was still upbeat when we left.
He did great, but when I did tell him that he was going to get 4 shots, he did not like that at all, and stood in the corner of the room.

In the end, he did well. We did have to hold him down, and I don't care how many times I've done it with my 3 children, it is always heartbreaking to hold your somewhat unsuspecting child down on the table, knowing that the nurse is about to poke them with a shot, that is sure to hurt a whole lot more than they are thinking! Poor Davis! He was once again off the charts for his height and at the top of the charts for weight, in line with his previous growth. There is no denying it, Davis will be a big boy! Probably the tallest of the bunch. His growth chart shows that he is the height of an average 6 year old (or even a short 7 year old). Look out Jackson...he's catching up to you!
