Doctors & Shots

Yesterday the babies had their two month shots (a little early, they're not quite two months yet). Well let's back up and start with how I thought the day would go and everyone can laugh...
9:00 Lactation appt
9:40 Dr appt
10:40 finish dr appt
11:00 begin first day back at work

ha ha ha.

here's how it went:
9:00 Lactation appt (feed Ethan and discuss)
9:40 Blake goes out to reception to check that the doctor's running on time. the guy says yes, she is. We pack up even though we're not done w/ the lactation consultant. (by everything i actually mean most things, later when we returned we realized we'd left a water bottle and blanket in her office - whoops!)
9:50-10ish, still waiting for the doc in the waiting room. not sure how long we waited exactly. it wasn't forever, but it wasn't on time either.
?? meet with the doc. chat, check out kaylee, then she has to leave to go do something w/ some other kid and come back. check out ethan.
?? back to the lactation consultant to feed Kaylee and discuss. at this point my boss calls and blake answers and tells her I'll be in around 12:30 - ie we're running an hour and a half behind!
?? go downstairs (now with two babies that have been fed at least) and sign in for shots. I get a flu shot, blake gets a flu nasal spray-ness, and then we wait for the babies' shots to be prepared. They're getting 8+ things, which come in the form of one oral goo and three shots in the thigh.
we start with kaylee. she possibly enjoys her goo stuff, certainly doesn't mind it. she does not enjoy her first shot. the doc tells us each shot is more painful than the last. great. but she's recalmed and stopped crying. then the second shot. scream scream and the nurse goes for the third. even more screaming. kaylee is MAD and crying a lot. moving on to ethan. same thing, less intense (ethan spits up some of his goo and does the same crying sequence where you really can tell tehy don't like the first shot, but it's not as bad as #2 or 3 which they REALLY don't like).
and... 1:30 - we leave the doc and I go to work. Blake takes the babies to his parents for afternoon babysitting. 1:30 - the whole doc thing took 4.5 hours. (insert my renewed and enlarged and amazed appreciation for heather here.) we did survive, but I don't need to do that again.

well, I'm all done pumping now, so I must take the babies from blake and let him go to work. later gators.
