Our big girl!

Riley had her 4 year check up WAY late...we were just a little busy with a new baby and all!  

I am so grateful for healthy kiddos and try to remember just how luck we are all the time.  Riley rarely visits the doctor outside her normal well child check ups...when sickness is going around at school she never gets it, when she's played with friends and they turn up sick the next day she never gets it.  Good genes I suppose.

Nonetheless she was overdue for her checkup and for some shots...yikes!  We saw a great doctor who I really liked since her previous doctor no longer worked at the base.  He was great with her, had a good sense of humor, and checked her head to toe and said she was perfect!  She is growing just like she should..still a tall and lean girl but moving right up the growth charts.  I couldn't remember if she had to get shots before the appointment and if so how many.  Sadly she had to get FOUR shots.  Luckily Jason was able to meet us for the appointment and after so much screaming and so many tears the shots were done...it was just horrible but we all survived and I took her down to the store for a super sugary snack after all of it.

So proud of our big girl and thankful the shots are over for a while!
