needles and prizes

Walker and Kyler had to go and get some blood drawn today to test for animal allergies. We were supposed to get it done on Tuesday after their doctors appointment, but the girl at the lab said that we had to come back at another time because there wasn't enough people to "help" (hold/pin them down!) her. So I had to go and pick up Walker's seasonal allergy medicine today and stopped by the lab again. A different girl (the one who is the BEST at the lab) was there and said doing both of them would be no problem. We did Walker first and he held my hand and was a champ. He cried, but didn't try to pull away or hit anyone! He stopped crying as soon as they pulled the needle out and was happy he to pick a prize from their treasure chest. Kyler was a champ too. He also cried, but as soon as the needle was out he jumped off my lap and opened the drawer himself to get a prize! He picked a sucker, something eatable...no surprise! They both went around the rest of the day showing and telling anyone who would listen about what happened. I have such BIG boys!
