Here they are in the waiting room. Before we were actually called, Clay was on Mommy's lap arrest. The pediatric section is right next to the old people section and I didn't want my kids to drive them nuts. It was nice that another little four year girl was there for her appt too and entertained my kids.:)
I love that they wear little hospital gowns. So cute.
Dr. Cuni is so gentle and sweet with the kids and very thoughtful and kind, as well. She even laughed at my kid stories. I'm sure she has heard them all before, but she doesn't act like that. I really appreciate her. I tried to prepare the kids for her checking their eyes, ears and mouths. They did pretty well. I did NOT mention the shots. They cried enough when those occurred. I didn't want them crying before.Jenelle interacted very well with Dr. Cuni and did what she was asked to do.
Clayton followed the light.
I gave the kids a Tootsie roll after their shots and then some ice cream and an extra movie when we got home--to make up for them getting shots. I think we have survived pretty well.

Boy, you should see how into these pictures both Anderson and Allison were. They recognized Dr. Cuni and wanted to know exactly what she was doing. I'm glad your appointments are over and the shots are but a memory. Hopefully they won't have any fever or other reactions.
I'm glad the appt. went well, sorry to interupt when I did. But thanks! I'm sure you are glad that's over!
Yes, I am relieved to have the appts over and glad that naively, I wasn't dreading them as much as I should have.:)
You are so lucky that your appointment went so well. I had to take Tyler for an annual physical today, too, and the mention of a shot freaked him out. I literally had to hold him down just so the nurse could give him the shot. It was not good. He even kicked the nurse... It sucked :-( And on top of that, there are some questionable things about his physical that I will have to tell you about later... Not good. :-(
