Yesterday Corbin was supposed to go in for her second flu shot and I completely spaced on the appointment until late last night after I had came home from work. This morning I called and rescheduled for today and so we were to take her in at 3:15 this afternoon.
Of course, all the time between when I called and the appointment I was completely dreading it because she was in such a good mood, as she usually is. Who wants to see their baby who is all smiles and all giggles get poked with a needle and have to see her cry hysterically? It's a huge bummer.
So we got to the doctor's office and we sat for a few minutes, and I found myself people-watching instead of perusing the magazines. Finally they called us back and sent us to room six. The nurse already had her supplies and I asked if I could make a bottle to give her for when the freak-out occurred. Ryan was asked to get her ready for the shot and so I had my back to them as it was happening, rinsing the bottle in the sink.
I can hear Corbin laughing and I'm like, "OMG...I hate doing this to her!" and then next thing I know the nurse is putting her used needle in the biohazard box and Corbin has a bandaid on her leg! She didn't shed a tear! In fact, it was like it didn't even happen, because she was still smiling and babbling!
I'm so proud of my baby girl! And I'm also glad to say that she's feeling much better and has recovered from her cold. Now it's time to get ready for our first Thanksgiving!
Here's me and Corbi-lou last night after having some yummy squash:
The most beautiful baby in the whole world. :) And I couldn't love her more!

She's adorable (^-^)
Maxwell didn't cry when he got his second flu shot either! Maybe it's because it was only one? Either way, I'm glad I didn't have to see him cry ;)
Are you getting excited about Christmas?! I cannot wait to see Maxwell rip open presents and dig through his stocking! It's gonna be great! I love Christmas and I wish I could do more this year, but I just gotta make due with what I've got. Are you going to get Corbin any pictures with Santa?
