OK, tomorrow Jack has a doctors appointment. He will be weighed, and get a shot of Synagis, which helps protect him from getting the dreaded RSV.
Sarah hates shots, and I can only imagine that she REALLY hates watching Jack gets shots even more, so I’m not too upset that I wont be able to be there tomorrow. Jack has been through plenty of unpleasantness and as a parent, I’ve decided to try to avoid putting him though any unnecessary pain wherever possible. I realize that’s unprecedented, and that I’m the first parent to come up with this idea, but dude, I’m totally gonna try.
On the other hand, I’m completely OK with betting on my son. I’m saying that the boy is going to hit the double digits on the scale tomorrow. He’s getting huge as you can see from all the pics, and lately he’s been kicking it into overdrive. He’s sucking down that milk like theres no tomorrow, so I’m accepting all bets. cash on the barrel head, with a house limit of $.05.
PS - I took these with, get this, a film camera! Yeah, apparently, they used to make cameras that use something called “film”. Basically, you put this “film” into the camera and then you can take the pictures, but you can’t see any of the pictures you took until much later, when you finish taking all the pictures in the “roll”, whatever that means.
It actually gets worse. You have to take this “roll” to some place and get it “developed” only to find out whether or not your picture actually came out.
Point is, its really complicated. I don’t really even understand it.
