4 Year check up in the morning with a nasty surprise for Colin

Yep. The poor kid has to get 3 or 4 shots.

I don't know if I'm handling this the right way or not by not telling him. He tends to get very upset and obsess over things like this, so I opted for the surprise approach.

I'm going to have to make sure that we have blankie and doggy when we go. It also might take a couple of hotwheels cars to make up for this as well.

I'll let you guys know how it goes!!

Good luck to you (and Colin!). I hope everything goes (went) well at the appointment!

YoungHung wasn't subdued by cars, books or games. But, show him some goldfish (or "feesh" as he calls them) and the crying stopped immediately.

I am not a fast food type of person (very often) so we went for McDs french fries after.

I never told Jacob he was getting shots unless he asked. He also would have screamed bloody murder just pulling up into the parking lot. It worked so much better for us that he be surprised and I would even act all surprised as well like that darn dr. snuck those on us man.
