Immunization Day

Bryan sent Ayden and me off to the pediatrician this morning for Ayden's immunizations. I got about ten minutes from the house before I hit major traffic. Ayden only sleeps if the car is in motion; therefore, he was awake and beginning to get fussy. You see, Ayden's first sedative is due at 8:00AM, and his doctor's appointment was at 8:15AM. I was hoping to get to the office parking lot by the time his medicines were due, but rush hour traffic dictated a different path. I ended up pulling over to give Ayden his medication. He settled out, as did traffic.

Ayden handled his FOUR immunization shots well. He only cried when they were being given, and a little Mommy love comforted him back to smiling... and to staring at himself in the examination table mirror.

We got back to the house easily, and I got a bunch of these (see below) to encourage me at the beginning of my first day with Ayden.
I gave Ayden his first feed, and we are coming up on his second Tylenol dose. He has had a busy morning, and he fell asleep for the first time in his pack & play. He is now under my watchful eye. Please pray that his body handles the immunizations well.
