First Ped. Visit

Today we went to the Pediatrician to get started on immunizations and to get our referral for an audiologist and an ultrasound for her kidney.  Poor kid had to get 3 shots and man she screamed.  She also had an ear infection.  So now she is on 4 different medications and supplements.  Fun times.   we will go back in 6 weeks for a 2nd round of shots, and then 6 weeks after that for the final round and she will be caught up then.  Some shots she doesn't need due to her age, but I feel so bad for her.  Camden was a little jealous of all the attention that Dasha has been getting so while we were at Target waiting on her prescription we went back to the toy dept. and I got him a hot wheel.  Hot Wheels take care of almost everything. 

I have found a great option for getting out and keeping the kids with me.  A friend of mine is doing a small group every other week at McDonald's and the kids get to play in the play place while we talk.  The only dilemma last night was Dasha freaked out at the very top of the play place, and it is super hard trying to get up there and get her!  Fun times crawling around up there.  She had a much better time in the toddler area.  So I get to talk to other adults, and still keep her around but she is not hanging on me.  I have had to start blocking her off from the kitchen while I am cooking dinner because she literally hangs on my leg while I am cooking and I am constantly knocking her down because she will be right behind me and I step back and boom.  She is not happy about that, but she is getting better about it.

  2. I think Dasha is beginning to realize how wonderful it is to have a mom and she hasn't had time yet to really understand that you're her FOREVER mom so she's having a bit of separation anxiety. Time and the love you give her will fix that. I'm really glad you found a group of moms to visit with in a safe place. That should go a long way to improving your sanity.
