One Too Many


Donovan and I went to the doctor on Friday to get a bunch of immunizations that we need prior to bringing home the little lady. We have already had most of the shots recommended for traveling to Ethiopia, but the CDC recommends that we get boosters for many childhood immunizations due to Noemi not yet being immunized.  So...we took off our shirts and surrendered our arms. Donovan passed out cold after shot number four.  This was no big surprise as the guy is known to not be a fan of the needle.  The nurse brought him a red lollipop after he came to and I just couldn't resist snapping his photo with my camera phone.  It's a little blurry from me laughing so hard. Poor guy.  We go to the travel clinic later this week to finish things up.

That is SO funny! Seriously--- what's he going to do the first time there's projectile vomit on the floor or an explosive diaper all over the bed (or car... or carpet... or...) ;)

Noemi is going to love to hear this story one day.

Oh Donovan! I laughed a little too hard at your pale face! Hope you are ok and ready for the rest! The things we do for love!

Donovan, I feel your pain. I get woozy just thinking about needles. I passed out on my tattoo. Terrible. I have never gotten a lollipop however. I have a new goal to try to achieve.
