Eighty had to have a shot today at the doctors office 💉💉💉💉

(My English dad replies “Doctors give kids shots these days? Tequila or sambuca?” 🙄🙄🙄😂😂😂)

She took it like a Champ 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 No tears, she just squeezed her eyes shut tight and said “Ouchie” 😊😊😊😊😊

Her arm has been so sore so I was offering her ice cream and lots of other treats. She said NO, she needs immune system foods to help her body feel good 🦠🦠🦠🦠

Her dinner request?

Oranges, blueberries, pineapple, broccoli, avocado, mushrooms and ramen with tofu 🍊🫐🍍🥦🥑🍄🍜

I’ll serve it up with a sneaky side of 🍪🍪🍪🍪

Good!
Is she eating more than her initial nibbles and gaining weight?
Hopefully not gaunt anymore.
Going to graduate car seat soon?

@Valerian She is eating more but hasn’t gained much, I guess because she’s so active now compared to how she was 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

She looks way healthier in her face but still so small 👶👶👶👶

A child in London asked if she was 5 like her 😯😯😯😯

Car seat graduation still appears to be kind of far away 😅😅😅😅 I wish it would come quicker lol

@Raffiki So, Is it a like a High Back Booster?
( For 35-65 Pounds says the literature)
My daughter had one longer than her friends/peers, she was a premmie and didn't actually outgrow her booster until second grade I think.

Raffiki · 22-25, F

@Valerian It’s a level below a high back booster, it’s a 5-point harness seat, rather than using the actual seatbelt.

She’s going into 3rd grade now but I just can’t comfortably move her up yet 😬😬😬

@Raffiki Fully understand!
An accident without such protection is NOT what either of you need.
Luckily she can be walked to school now? Close enough?

Raffiki · 22-25, F

@Valerian Yeah… The doctor said she has a low bone density so her bones would be more likely to break in an accident. It freaks me out so the ‘baby seat’ is much more comforting to me 😊😊😊😊

Yes! We walk to school. Not sure how much safer it is when she decides to run in the road though 😧😧😧😧
