two shots down...

Logan (recently turned 3) and Shane (just turned 1) have made their first of 2 visits to the doctor to recieve their  Hep A/B shots.   Things went surprisingly well with both boys - not a tear from Logan at all!  On top of this, Shane had his 12-month baby checkup last week and got his scheduled jabs.  They are going for their second round of HepA/B the day before we leave.  All these pokes in the arm don't seem to be phasing Shane at all - he's happy go lucky as usual, and becoming much sturdier on his feet which should make our lives a bit easier on the road!  Now the goal is for him to learn to back down the stairs rather than going forwards on his bum.  Logan is very proud of his new kid-sized backpack and has already started to put together a collection of toys to bring - the winners so far are his beloved buzz and woody as well as his "skateboard guys" avec skateboards.  Does he know what big adventure lies ahead?  He's enjoying his books on airplanes and the videos on Mexico and Costa Rica we borrowed from the library, and will happily tell anyone who asks that he's "going to Central Merica, first we go to Blize then Guadmala".  This week we will be adding to and editing things out of the big plastic bin we have in our living room.  Can we fit it all in 2 backpacks??  We did it 2 years ago, but add one more kid and the task becomes a bit more challenging!

Tuckered out after a day at the sprinklers - hope they can nap this well on our trip!
