Big City Doctor Visit
This morning mom & dad woke Jacob and I up early because I had another appointment with Dr. Kate at the Big City Doctor's office. Since we were going from home this time, dad had brought along his GPS with the maps since he'd not gone this way before. Because of that darned GPS we got there quick and made our way to the Childrens center.
I wanted to play for a little while in the waiting room cause they have such cool things here, but they called us back right away and I didn't get to play much. Jacob and Dad came with us too, so they couldn't play either.
After they weighed me (34 pounds in case you were wondering) and took my blood pressure, I waited for Dr. Kate to come in.
Laura came in and put some magic cream on my arm so when they took blood this time it wouldn't hurt like it did the last time. After she put the cream on, I had to wait 45 minutes before they could draw the blood. I'm a pretty good draw'er, it only take me about 2 minutes to draw a unicorn, I wonder why it takes so long to draw blood, all you need is a red crayon right ?
The Art Lady came around and gave Jacob and I some paper, stickers and markers to keep us busy until the doctor could see us. Dad was totally jealous, the markers nowadays are scented, so they smell like candy and stuff, dad kept shaking his head and taking about they stuff he used as a kid wasn't cool like the stuff these days.
Laura came back after Mom and Dad had a really long talk with Dr. Kate. Although she said it wouldn't hurt since I had the majic cream on, I could see feel it.
Jacob grabbed Dad's hat cause he likes the Home Depot so much. They tried to keep my mind off Laura drawing blood, but they didn't do so well.
She kept attaching more viles to the thing stuck in my arm. I was so sad.
Dad and Jacob were making some strange faces, they're silly.
Almost done she said. I think they are taking more blood than the last time I was here.
8 Tubes of blood, she brought a extra tube, but didn't have to fill it. Boy am I glad.
After we were done, we all got to play in the waiting room. They brought us some juice boxes and crackers. Jacob and I even got coloring books. How come he gets a coloring book when they only poke me ?
This was the tunnel under the road, it was cool with all the colors.

PaPa and I are very proud of you and how good you have been when you go to the big doctors office. You can help Jacob when he has to go and maybe you will get some really great stuff. I know the doctors will make you all better. We love you very much.
