Kids' Checkup

Joseph had a checkup, this morning. It's way late, but he's caught up on all his vaccines, now, so hey. He's 34 ins and about 27 lbs, and that's without much breakfast. He also has an ear infection and has to do an antibiotic for the next week. It tastes like oranges, but the first dose still ended up all down his shirt (and pants, and shoes, and the floor...). Since we were there, and Elena had missed her last checkup, too, they decided to do a two-fer and get her as well. She's still 37 ins and 30 lbs, and she got a shot, too. It was a day for much screaming and crying--only by major strength of will was I not included in that number--but we all survived. After a snack of chocolate milk and Goldfish, some Tylenol for the shots, and the aforementioned orange goop for Joseph, everyone seems to be doing well. We taking it easy, today, though the evening will be a bit busy. Jonathan's family is (finally!) getting family pictures taken.
