Shot to the Heart

Veronica went to the doctor's on Monday and got her two month immunization shot.  If you ever want to be amused, call Amber and ask her to say the word "immunization". To celebrate she put on the World's Cutest Outfit (from Rodney, with a Punk Baby pin from Hannah) and then learned the movement of "jauntily cocking ones head".



Knowing what was ahead of her, Amanda gave her some extra squeezes. Ummm, new baby getting shots! Ick. ICK.



Then Veronica was stripped and laid on a table in front of people, under fluorescent lights. I've had this dream; it never ends well.



And here's the scary part...



(Yes, I realize the continuity error between those pictures, smarty pants, but it worked better for the narrative arc to show her undressed FIRST, thank you very much). Anyway, it doesn't look like a fun time but it's all to keep her healthy and she's completely forgotten about it by now. I know; I asked her.



Veronica's Grandpops Ernie is still in the hospital recovering from knee surgery, so she went by to steal some of his food. She LOVES hospital food. And Ernie.



Who couldn't love a man who has the good sense, when faced with drugs clouding his brain and making his head feel like it was going to fall off, to just tie it back on??



There's a good image to leave you on... Veronica and her dog, Chester. Can you imagine that someday soon she will be trying to ride him like a horse? Possibly crafting a saddle out of boxes and duct tape? Maybe that's just me??
