Doctor's Visit

Aiden had his first doctor's visit finally. It took a while to get him added to my health insurance due to some miscommunication with Aetna. So we finally were able to bring him this past Tuesday and everything went really well. His new pediatrician was very nice and thought Aiden was amazing. She took her time with him and he enjoyed the fish painted on the walls and chasing her rubber ball around the exam room. He had a fun time until it was time for the vaccinations he needed...four total. He recovered quickly and daddy and I brought him to McDonald's for lunch. After lunch we took him to the lab for his blood draw...that didn't go as well. The lab was unable to get any blood after two attempts and a lot of screaming...mostly from Aiden (mommy tried to contain her screams)! Unfortunately, we are going to have to try again. I am not sure when...I get butterflies in my stomach just thinking about putting him through it again! We also had the fun task of collecting stool samples as well! Welcome to parenthood!!!
