Will went to visit our favorite Dr, Doctor Berry, and was met with four shots. While he thought getting the shots was just crappy – he was thrilled to know it was all in preparation for Kindergarten.
And for all you enquiring minds (aka grandparents) he’s grown about four inches and gained 3 pounds since last year!
More on his birthday, his trip to Disneyland with Eric, and the rest of his birthday ups will be coming soon.
Happy bday Walker!
The only shots I remember from my childhood are those kindergarten shots – those are brutal!
I know MMR and DPT but not the other two — that’s how long it’s been since I had a kindergartener. I’m proud of him. FIVE is BIG ! ! !
The only way I convinced Liza to peacefully submit to her immunizations was that it was what she had to do for kindergarten! She did it -and now we’re through for at least 7 years! (especially since we converted to the flu mist instead of flu shot). lovely world. Happy Bday to Will!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR WILLIAM! Going to kindergarten is very exciting! Xavier too is very excited about going to school, but not so about the check up with the doc. He remembers Antonio coming home telling him the horror story of getting the shots, and having to pee in a cup. Our appt isn’t until June, maybe I just wanted to by some time. I remember when we talked about our due dates of our babies and your due date was the 16th (Xavier’s birthday) and my due date was the 26th (Will’s birthday). Give him a big kiss from us!
