Mid October, both girls had their big milestone check ups and we chose to do them at the same time: 4 year appointment for Ally and 6 month visit for Hadley. This was Allys first official visit to our new pediatrician and the firs time getting shots in quite a while.
Allyson at 4 years old: 3' 4" tall and 37.8 lbs
Hadley at 6.5 months: 28" long and 17.11 lbs
Both girls got 4 shots each, two in each arm for Ally and two in each leg for Hadley. Ally took them like a big girl. She sat very still and only whined a little bit as they switched arms. She got a freeze pop as soon as she was done so that made it all better. Hadley was pretty miserable all the way into school but seemed to calm down once she saw all of her friends. No negative reactions from either so they are rock stars!
Doctors visits are my least favorite part about being a parent but they are a necessary evil. Hopefully we will stay fairly healthy through the winter and we wont have to make many unscheduled trips. We are very lucky to have such a healthy family!
