R is for Robot and Race

At preschool this week we learned about the letter R. R is for Race. Look at those boys run. This is Kenny, Samuel, Carson, and Cooper.

Sideways leaps

Giant steps
R is also for robots. The boys made these today at mom school too.


Shots

Look at that poor little leg. MJ was very brave for her 2 month old shots.


Now the older kids did not fair so well. Carson went in for shots to register for kindergarten. Picture this: He starts yelling when we go into the office. "I don't want shots" Then the nurse brings over the tray with the needles on it and he completely loses it. Yelling and screaming, tears running down his face. I am telling him to be brave and he says "I'm not brave, I don't want shots." So I grab his arm and restrain him and he is screaming at the top of his lungs. Cooper starts to cry because his brother is in pain and McKayla is asleep in her chair. I leave the doctor's office with two children crying and carrying a car seat. It was a miserable and exhausting afternoon.
