Drew and Anna Kate got the dreaded flu shot this morning. We got in and out of there pretty quickly. Drew went first and did cry as soon as they stuck the needle in but after some hugs and an Elmo sticker, his tears dried up and he was good to go. Anna Kate went next and didn't even flinch when she stuck the needle in. But after it was out and we were talking about how it was over, that bottom lip poked out, and tears welled up in her sweet little eyes. She was trying so hard not to cry, bless her little heart. She got an Elmo sticker as well but it really wasn't much consolation. She kept pointing back toward the front so I figured she wanted DotDot (She always has to go for things like this. You need two sets of loving arms when babies are upset over shots!). As soon as we got up there she went straight for Drew. And gave him a big ole' hug. And then they were both fine. Melt my heart!
They went to breakfast at Midland afterward with DotDot and Grandaddy and Mimi Jo met them there as well. I guess if you have to get a shot, that is the best way to follow it up!
I didn't get any pictures of the precious hug but I did get this gem before they headed off to breakfast. Hayes came over to play with Anna Kate and Drew last Tuesday and was able to share his love of a good hat with my two. Good thing because they both have hats that go with their Halloween costume and we really wanted them to wear them. So, off they went to their favorite breakfast spot with their hats, their monies (that they got by raiding my purse while we waited on shots), and some of their favorite people!
