When you work all day and just want to come home and rest up a bit the last thing you want to do is go sit in a doctor's office. Unless you are me because it sure beats having to take a day off just to visit the pediatrician as frequently as a newborn does. I am so happy that we found a great doctor for C.J. who understands that people work and sets his appointments after normal business hours.
So this evening we walk into the office to the sound of a crying baby. You got it, it's shot time. Now C.J. is no stranger to needles. Even though she is only a month old, she has already had to get blood drawn a few weeks ago and did quite well. Now Mommy and Daddy did make sure she was knocked out before the blood work so she really did not know what was going on. So we get to tonight, it is C.J.'s turn to deal with the dreaded needle. I whisper to her that she can handle it and to be a champ then laid her on the table. In a matter of seconds the vaccine is injected, band aid applied and she is back comfortably in her daddy's arms with just a little whimpering. That's right, my girl took that needle like a champ. No medicine before hand, no putting her to sleep, no fuss at all. I am hoping that all needle visits will go this well.
Today's update, C.J. visited IHOP today. Well she was there physically but so wrapped up I don't even remember seeing her there. LOL, we had to eat and we have not been all summer. Another update, she is presently sitting here right now with Daddy as I type and watch football! Aw, got to love it, C.J. and Daddy time! I must leave now though, because we have a little reading to get done before she goes to bed. Reading is fundamental! So until tomorrow, remember to pray because prayer changes things!
