doctor. thunderbirds. ice cream

Thank goodness I decided to ask Tess to watch the twins while I brought Jazlynn to the clinic for her 3 year well check. As expected, she freaked out. She didn't want to stand on the scale, or stand be the wall to measure her height. It got worse during vitals. The poor airman trying to ask her questions...she tried calming her down by using stickers and crayons, but it only calmed her down her a few seconds and then she would start resisting again. The funny part is that even if Jazlynn was crying she was still answering questions through her cries. When the doctor came in he said that Jazlynn was very talkative and was impressed that she knew all her colors and shapes. Like always, Jazlynn is on the bottom of the growth curve but is still progressing steadily. The only thing the doctor recommended was for her to switch back to whole milk to help her gain some weight.

After her checkup I walked over to the immunization center to have Jazlynn get her flu shot. I think my poor child has that room imprinted in her memory, because as soon as we walked into the room she stated that she wanted to go home. She started griping my hand tighter and tighter and tried to hide behind me and my purse. I didn't even notice Jesse and Makayla behind us cause I was trying to calm Jazlynn down before her shot. I had to hold Jazlynn down so the tech could give her a shot in the thigh. I'm glad the tech was fast because Jazlynn's getting strong and it's hard to hold her down.

She cried until we walked out of the clinic then she calmed down and started talking about all the pretty stickers she got at the doctors.

After I picked the twins up from Tess's house I brought the kids to the BX so we could buy floaties to wear in Amanda's pool. She invited us over to swim and have lunch on Thursday. When I was driving over to the BX we saw the Thunderbirds practicing for the air show so I decided to park near the grassy area so we could watch the planes. Jazlynn was excited to see them do tricks while the twins were a little more resistant. Alyssa and Lil' PeeJay would run to me and hold me tightly when the Thunderbirds flew overhead. I think they're more scared of the loud engines more than the planes themselves. After the planes were done practicing we went inside the BX and bought our floaties and had ice cream at Baskin Robbins. Lil' PeeJay fell asleep while we walked around the BX so he missed out on the ice cream. It's the first time I let Jazlynn pick what flavor she wanted. She choose Strawberry Cheesecake so I got Alyssa the same thing so they wouldn't fight. I let them have their own dish and they ate it by themselves. It's also the first time I let them eat their own ice cream and surprisingly they didn't make a mess! It's a good thing because I forgot to bring bibs with me. Jazlynn was so happy and told me thank you for the ice cream which totally made my day.

When we came home I wanted to open the back shed to get one of the lighter folding chairs to bring to the air show cause I don't want to carry the heavy ones. But I realized I don't know what happened to the keys for the lock! I'm hoping the hubby knows where it is because if he doesn't I'm afraid I'm gonna have to get some bolt cutters or something! I need stuff in that shed!
