Yesterday I took Santiago in for his one year well visit. He loves these well visits. He loves to rip the paper off the examination table like a hero and charm the pants off all the nurses, though that didn't spare him from getting 4! Yes! 4 immunization shots! He looked up at me with this terrified look on his face, like, Pain! This hurts! Owwwwww!
The pediatrician asked plenty of questions. (Walking yet? Yes. Sociable? Very), she listened to his heart, inspected his ears and eyes, his muscular development, and then gave him a good squish on his tummy(can you blame her? santiago is pretty darn delicious these days) and she told me I was doing a good job no less than three times(what all moms like to hear as many times as possible, am I right?). She also told me I birthed the greatest specimen of manchild that ever existed on the earth! Ha! Ok, so, maybe she didn't say that last part.
After the trauma frozen yogurt was called for.
