Just got back from my 12-month stab-fest at the doctor. Remember how I told you last time I went to the doctor and got a shot I didn't cry? Well, apparently they took that as a challenge, because this time they came after me with FOUR needles.
And this time, they got me. I'll admit, it hurt REALLY bad. And I cried. Hard. For a while.
I tell you what, I tried everything I could to avoid it. I was super nice and cute with the nurses, the doctor, the secretary, the janitor... ANYBODY who may have said - "You know, I just can't let a cutie like that get jabbed repeatedly until she balls like a three-month old. Let me put a stop to it."
No dice.
So when the doctor left the room and Daddy didn't pack up our stuff, I knew what was coming. My mind was racing for some way for me to MacGyver my way outta this. Then I remembered that word everyone always says when you leave...
"Bye Bye"
I figured if I tried saying it, Daddy might be so excited about my new word he would forget about the shots. When the doctor left I said "Ba Bye" and waved at her. Then when the door closed I kept pointing at it and saying "Ba Bye... Ba Bye... Ba Bye". I was PLEADING with Daddy... "Ba Bye!!! Ba Bye!!!"
Then the door opened and Nurse McSticky came in with her tiny little swords.
Ba Bye.
Oh yeah, if anybody cares...

And the doctor said I am very smart for my age. Well duh. It's not like just any moron with a computer can have her own blog, right?

Just a brief note to tell you how much I enjoy your blog! I'm not even sure how I found it, but have been a faithful follower of Miss Claire since her initial blogging near birth. :-)
I'm an adoptive mom to 26 kids - and likely nothing at all in common with y'all - but I adore miss Claire and think "her" writings are among the most amusing of my days....
Thanks!
