We had a pretty uneventful morning. Dad had to travel for work, but Mom took the day off to stay home with me. I guess she missed me so much after being gone all last week!
We went to pick up Grandma Droste at the train station around 1:00 pm. I fell asleep on the way, as is becoming pretty common for me. When I woke up, Grandma was really glad to see me. I totally remembered her from my last trip to Dow over July 4th and greeted her with a big smile.
After lunch we headed off to my doctors’ office to get the shots that I couldn’t get yesterday because of my temperature on Sunday night. They are in a new office now, but it’s still not very fun or kid-friendly. Oh well, I guess that’s just more incentive not to get sick!
I got two shots today, my second HIB and my second polio. There hasn’t been a case of polio diagnosed in the US in over 20 years, so I guess I’m doing this for the public good. I cried much less than I have at any of my previous visits, and by the time we got home I wasn’t even fussy — just really sleepy.
Mom had to go to women’s admissions panel for Stanford so Grandma did the bedtime routine — which went perfectly!
