Shots, shots and more shots:0(

We are back from the beach, pictures and details to come later.  We awoke this morning bright and early to head to the doctor.  Alex and Callum both had to get shots.  They have now decided that Alex needed another chicken pox shot and Callum ended up getting 4.  I didn't realize that going in to it.  Alex was very brave. She didn't cry at all. Bless her heart, she walked in to the office first, looked at me and said, "I didn't know I was getting a shot. I was here for Callum."  

Oops, guess I forgot to tell her.  Callum came walking in as Alex was getting her band aid.  He proceeds to get up on the table and ask for "2" .  Not knowing that in order to get 2 band aids, you get to get 4 shots.  The boy is so strong. It took me holding his arms, the nurse his feet and the other giving the shots, and he wasn't really fighting.   We then took Liam to the Lab to have blood drawn. Why not get it all done in one morning.  Poor thing. You can't see his veins at all!!!!  It took 10 minutes, a heating pad, both arms, and the girl still going on touch to get 4 tubes of blood.  He was a trooper, but I felt so bad for him.  I just assumed that once they went to draw the blood, his little vein would pop up.    So now, Callum and Liam are both napping, and Alex is chilling on the couch.  It will be a calm day for us today.  On a positive note, Liam is now in his own room and own crib!!  He doesn't like it yet, but this will be his third night. He is crying less every time.  Callum told us last night at bed time, "you need to go calm him down."  Too cute!!!    I will post from our trip when I have a bit more time:0)
