EVERYONE knows that the 5-year checkup is the bad one - the one where you get four shots at once, and is so bad that the pediatricians give away nice quality panda bears out of guilt - right?! Apparently everyone except our pediatrician knows that fact. Max (37 lbs, 40.74 inches) was a trooper when he learned he'd need four shots (after I'd assured him the 4-year is no big deal - it's the 5 with the shots). He did not shed a single tear, and barely flinched throughout.
His stellar performance earned him a trip to B&R. We brought Penny Panda with us, because Max thought she may be hungry, having not had a chance to eat since she was born. She is a big fan of rainbow sherbet, too!
