All that worry for nothing

Peanut and I just got home from getting our flu shots. I was dreading the appointment all day. Not only because she was getting a shot but also because I was going to have to wake her up from her nap to leave! Well the waking up part went smoothly and even though we were running a couple of minutes late, the snow didn't help, we made it to the doctor's office only 6 minutes late. And we were back in our car 15 minutes later!! I couldn't believe it! By far the quickest trip I've ever had to the pediatrician's office. My shot was the least painful I've ever had in my life. Then came Peanut's. I thought it would make things easier if she saw me go first. I think it may have, but just barely. They gave her her shot, she cried and then got a sucker. She was done crying before we even left the office and was thrilled to play with the snow on the bushes on the way to the car. Occasionally on the slow, snowy way home she would say "Something made me cry" and I would tell her it was the shot and then she would say "the sucker make me feel better!"

So all in all, a pretty easy experience. Let's just cross our fingers neither one of us has any side effects from the shots!
