we were instructed to remove his band-aids, rub the injection sites, and administer tylenol as soon as we were home. we visited gran so she could take care of the mean 'to dos'. i had had enough of torturing my son and i wasn't about to ask pete to join in the cruelities...

hi!
i remember taking a block-stalk peek when you were still expecting... if it's any consolation, I cried my eyes out when Alex had his first round of shots, I almost threw up when they brought out the needles, and I'd never heard a cry like that before. It broke my heart, but he fell asleep on the walk home from the doctor's office and was fine afterwards, I was the one scarred from the afternoon... at least they don't remember at this age.
jen, he is even cute when he cries. perhaps it pains you to know i thought he was cute, while you thought he was being tortured...but like c says, they don't remember at this age and you took care of him well!
thanks, ladies! it helps to hear such kind words...
jack is doing better now, though the weekend was rough. i can't believe we have to do this again in 2 more months.... does it get any easier?!?!
Hi Jen,
You will survive! It is a horrible experience though. It feels so mean to prick your little cutie. He was adorable when he was crying, sorry. Can't wait to meet him.
