Who needs a check up?

This month Sadie turned 18 months and Elijah turned 4. Therefore, I took them both for their check ups. It started out fine...

Elijah now gets his blood pressure checked. Sadie, just wants to be involved in whatever is going on...


Also, a hearing check...
Stats:
Elijah
Height: 3 feet 5 1/2 inches...77%
Weight: 34 lbs...39%
Weight for Length: 10%
Sadie
Height: 32 1/2 inches...71%
Weight: 22 lbs...15%
Weight for length...7%

Then on to the exam room. Sorry this pic is blurry, the kids were playing a game. They would walk around and I would yell out a color. They would run and jump on that color. Even Sadie is pretty good at it...



Then Elijah took over the camera so I could talk to the nurse...




Then, of course, Sadie needed a snack...


That's where the fun and games ended. When the MD examined Elijah she saw that his ear drum had ruptured!! Seriously! He told me Sunday that his ear hurt, but that's all he said. The Dr said it had happened within the last 24 hours. She gave us antibiotics for that. Then it came time for shots. Elijah went first...5 shots and the Tamiflu mist. He was a mess. He was all over the place and screaming like he was on fire! Sadie got 2 shots. I had to carry them both out. Elijah started his antibiotics that night (Monday) and Sunday morning he had the rash again (Amoxicillin rash from 2.5 years ago). It has been non stop around here.
