Can we say Traumatic

Today Will had his 4 year Wellness visit. Everything went just fine, he passed the hearing test, did great on everything she asked, then came the 4 shots and blood work. That was a completely different story. Thankfully Scott went with me, I held his arms while one nurse held his legs for the shots, the entire time he is screaming "Please let me go home!", "I want to go home now!" " I don't like Dr. Hawkins anymore, I'm never coming back!" Well they send us to the book room to calm down, and then it is time for the blood to be drawn. This time Scott held him in his lap and I held one arm and he screamed some but not as bad until they tried to put the bandage tape around his arm, then it started all over again. Needless to say, it was a bit traumatic for him. All the way home, he kept on saying I am never going back, I don't like Dr. Hawkins. After the screams they probably are hoping we don't have to come back anytime soon. He as now been asleep for 2 hours and I am fixing to wake him up. Sorry I am rambling, it made me feel awful.

Ramblings

What a crazy week! Monday started out with me working on my classroom for a while, since we have less than 3 weeks before school starts. Tuesday was summer reading and swimming with friends. Last night as we were winding down for the night, a teen age boy wrecks in the ditch in front of our house. Today, I took Will to Madisonville Park to play while Scott went to physical therapy. It is a really nice park, and I forgot to take my camera. Tonight was church and I teach the preschool TeamKids. So needless to say I am worn out.

Swim Lessons

Will had his first swim lesson today. He is not afraid of the water so I figured this would be a good time to start lessons. A friend from work offered to work with him and she does a great job. The only problem is he doesn't want to keep his mouth closed once he is under water. He was so cute, everytime he would do something by himself he would look at me and smile and give me a thumbs up!

Happy Birthday!!!

Will turned 4 on Monday, we had his party at the park on Sunday. He had a blast and loved all of the gifts. Thanks to Uncle Chris and Uncle Lissa for the new bike. Yes, he calls my sister in law uncle instead of aunt. We have tried to correct it, but we think it is cute.

He recieved lots of neat gifts, in the last photo he wearing his new Spider Man costume and using his Web Slinger.
